Sounds awesome. This mod is extremely unique and creative, and its awesome that the creator reads suggestions. Good luck! Let me know if your able to make any progress because me and my friends play this mode ALL the time.

@Murk Really makes me happy to hear you're enjoying it! Not sure if you already found it but if you want a change of pace there is also a hidden alternate version here: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2307041892

Thank you for the great suggestions! I think calling a horde is a great idea! I'd love to implement that as I try to recreate the game mode in versus!

The take control sounds like a great idea, nothing like being able to cause the chaos and jump in yourself! As of now that was one of the main things I was thinking when we were all playing. Also one big thing we wondered about was being able to spawn in a mob (A group of 15-25 commons), as of now the only effective way for a swarm is to spend points of commons to set up nearby, then get a boomer to vomit. I was thinking It would cost like 8 or 10 points. That really is the only thing I could think of, Other than that, this mod is an absolute blast.

Hey @Murk! Thanks for the workaround suggestion with the survivor swap, I actually didn't think about how annoying that was but I could probably easily fix it.
I also love your suggestion about versus. I could design it so one infected player could be chosen as the director (or it changed like how tank changes), and maybe during spectate mode/ghost mode, could spawn zombies! Or even better, they could like, take control of an SI that they spawned? That'd be cool! Lmk if you have other ideas!

Also, is there any chance you could create a "versus" mode version of this? So we could have players on both the infected, and survivor side? but also a human director? probably not possible but me and my buddy were discussing how cool it could be.

Survivor Swap: Experimental Version
I hunted for a mod that allows the use of this mod on L4D2 maps, and found this, it works.For anyone who wants to try this on lfd2 maps. Enjoy!

@The Charmer this is a fantastic idea Charmer! For now, I'll try to explain in brief. What you need to each do is subscribe to the mod, start a local server (play w friends) and both join. Also a good idea is to both type sv_consistency 0 into the console in advance (helps with connecting issues). Its also crucial you pick a map that contains Bill (the survivor), as playing as Bill allows you to spawn the infected. As Bill, you can type commands, like !eboom and !rhunt to bind holding the E button to spawn boomers and the R button to spawn hunters at the location of your crosshair (must be hidden from sight). Each zombie spawned costs points and points recharge over time, you also can spend points on spawning commons by holding Shift or Walk. I really hope this helps and now that I explain it, it becomes even more evident that I really should have a video explaining this process lol

Im having an issue just trying to setup a server so a friend and I can play. Also if you could add more to the mod like a video demonstration or gameplay example so people know what they're downloading would help!

Thanks for the update Tuce! Love this mod, makes it alot easier to play Player-Director without lots of admin-menu stuff!

@novaceltic Hey! Always happy to hear about interest in my mods! Awhile back, I made a hidden updated version of this mod that I never releasing publicly, if you'd like to play it you can find it here: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2307041892 Cheers!

Would love to see an update for left 4 dead 2 mods

hey is this ever gonna be updated again?

Hey thank you so much Machine No. 1347 for the feedback! I totally agree, the Director needs some major help. I too noticed the regen of points is broken (thankfully, I figured out why).

I will definitely be incorporating a lot of the things you mentioned, and even more tweaks, in the first update. Thanks again!

The Director is severely under powered. The regen of points is both slow and sometimes doesn't work. If there isn't an event that spawns commons then the director sometimes doesn't get any points. The common zombie spawn is horrible. There aren't enough zombies to inflict damage and get points.
Fixes: Increasing the amount of commons that spawn, Giving the director some points at the beginning, and increase the regen speed of points.

This is very unique. Can't wait to see this get expanded.
