[VScript] Buffed Riot Shield

Description
ANY MOD THAT UNLOCKS THE RIOT SHIELD AS A MELEE WEAPON WILL WORK, YOU DONT NEED TO USE THE ONE I ADDED SPECIFICALLY

HOST ON LOCAL SERVER

what it do
Now, the riot shield allows you to block common infected attacks by chance, and selected special infected with a penalty (-5hp, changable in cfg)

Mod is still wip but i wanted to upload it now, hunter and jockey are kinda broken since you dont need to face them to block their attacks

If youre wondering about the sound (finding it annoying, changable in cfg) I couldnt find ANY good enough for me riot shield sounds for free
SO i made my own by beating up a piece of plastic

THE MOD HAS AN EMS CONFIG
left4dead2/ems/riotshieldbuffs/cfg.txt
"Smoker Can Be Stopped = true
Jockey Can Be Stopped = true
Hunter Can Be Stopped = true
Attacks Can Be Blocked = true
Only Block Common Attacks = true
Attack Block Chance = 15
Damage Dealt From Blocking Special Attacks = 5
No Block Sound = false
No Complex Blocking = false"

Attacks Can Be Blocked - Means common infected attacks
No Complex Blocking - Doesnt check if you are facing the attacker to block the attack (only for smoker)
Only Block Common Attacks - If false, normal attacks from specials can be blocked

@Grand King Of Nusantara. there is a mod that adds reduction to shields. just combine this mod with that one

mod is great, if i had to give some feedback prob make it to were the when the tank hits you with the shield you block the damage- but drop the shield in return.

I think this doesn't work with the mod that drops your item when pinned, cause it played the block sound when a hunter hit me but didn't it block it from pouncing, not sure thou

This got me thinking. How about add damage reduction by 75% for witch attack, knockback from charging charger but no grab, and a knockback immunity from tank (you can still be knocked but no animation, I mean you can still see your weapon when you got punched).

if a smoker can grab the shield away, the survivor will receive a pistol after that.
It would be really immersive

Really like the idea of a buffed riot shield but I don't like the block by chance thing neither. Would much more prefer taking no damage from attacks at front or a damage reduction at front like the chainsaw has when chainsaw is attacking. Really good that riot shield can block smokers, jockeys and hunters. Does it block boomer vomit tho?
