Description

One day during continuous fights & survivals against zombies in a city, the weather suddenly changed from sunny to cloudy. Rain started to pour hard, & thunderbolts kept striking here & there. Suddenly, multiple thunderbolts stroke at once & got concentrated on a spot in the middle of the zombie horde & caused a big explosion. Among tons of roasted zombie corpses, there stood a man with red & blue tight costumes. None of the survivors knew who he was..., except Ellis. Ellis was so hyped & ran happily to meet him like a kid & even threw his gun away, as he was one of his favourite superheroes, Superman. After listening to survivors' stories about zombie apocalypse, Superman decided to help exterminate zombies. Ellis, with full of spirit & excitement, asked Superman whether he could be as strong as him.
Nick: "Ah, come on Ellis. Is now the best time?"
Ellis: "At least the Laser Eyes... Those are so cool..."
Superman: "Probably I can teach you that..."
Nick, Rochelle, Coach: "WHAT...?!!" *totally shocked*
& so, Ellis became the first disciple to demonstrate the "Laser Eyes", followed by other survivors.

Ok well, that's for the background story :D . This is also just a random crazy idea coming out of nowhere when I saw "env_laser". I suddenly remembered Superman, so, I decided to give a try. & somehow it worked.

So, this mod allows survivors to shoot laser beam from their eyes by holding USE (E) + RELOAD (R) buttons :D . Thanks to Superman, now L4D2 world is messed up & mixed with superpowers & superheroes :D . The mechanisms will be explained later below.

List of features available on "superman's disciples.txt" cfg file:

Laser Eyes User: Which type of survivor can use "Laser Eyes" (bots/ players/ all). Bots only have 5% chance to use "Laser Eyes" automatically when attacking.
Laser Eyes Damage: How much the damage is in every 0.2 second. Some special cases: Common infected will instantly die even when the damage is set to 0 (hardcoded somehow). Witch will be startled even with 0 damage, & have 5% chance to stumble. Special infected have 10% chance to stumble.
Laser Ammo Consumption: How much reserve ammo will be consumed in every 0.2 second when using "Laser Eyes". Min value= 0 (no ammo is consumed). Max= no limit.
Laser Extra Effect When Hit: When it's set to 1 or above, a special effect will be applied on a target hit with laser. The value affects what kind of effect will show up, whether it's additional sparks, small explosion, shocwave etc.
Burning Laser: When enabled, "Laser Eyes" can burn zombies.
Laughter on Laser Eyes: Enabled by default. Survivors will laugh when using Laser Eyes.

Mechanisms of "Laser Eyes" ability:

Hold E + R to use "Laser Eyes".
"Laser Eyes" ability will stay active as long as E & R buttons are pressed, & it will stop when the buttons are released or when reserve ammo is running out.
"Laser Eyes" ability deals instant kill on common infected. As for special infected, they'll have 10% chance to stumble, while witch has only 5% chance. Tank is immune to stumble.
Breakable objects can be damaged with "Laser Eyes" (only for survivor players). It means that custom enemies/ bosses in custom campaign may also take damage.
"Laser Eyes" can be used when incapacitated or climbing ladders (so if zombies stop your climbing halfway, just look at their as* & shoot the laser there :D ).
Survivor bots can use "Laser Eyes" automatically when "Laser Eyes User" is set to 1 or 3, but they only have 5% chance to use on each attack. Their "Laser Eyes" will only last for 1 second on each use.
Survivors are immune to "Laser Eyes".

Now, you're ready to fight zombies, as newbie superheroes under Superman's teaching :D .

NOTES:

Workshop server is currently still bugged (at least in my region, as I got ugc server errors when launching L4D2 & also opening Workshop Manager to upload a mod). So, in case if the mod doesn't show up in Addon Menu because of ugc server error, try the gamemaps version: Superman's Disciples (gamemaps)[www.gamemaps.com]
