CONFIG
This is just here to not bloat the description as it's already kinda big.

PLEASE LOAD INTO A MAP AT LEAST ONCE TO GET THE .CFG FILE!!!
If you somehow see Chinese characters in the config file, open it with something like Notepad++ instead. This is probably due to some sort of encoding bug on a few select Windows installations
Config file is located in left4dead2/ems/cidoi/config.cfg

  • hint_timeout = [any positive number]
    (Remove hint after this amount of time in seconds. Set to 0 for the hint to never disappear until you pick your item back up)

Ignore the NUL byte at the end, that's just a bug with VScript.

How about making a mod that drops items and pistols when they die, because the only things that drop are rifles and shotguns.

Would you consider adding riotshield to the list of valid blacklist items, please?
