First of all, sorry that my first thread is a suggestion. {You probably have enough noobs bothering you.}

I don't play on the expert server very often(I'm new and still suck.), but I noticed something that might make it more fun when there are only two people.

There's a pistol vs. physics script that was made by a Hidden server owner...just like it sounds and it heals the Hidden slightly(If memory serves) for every hit. It's great fun and helps with physics practice for those players who want to learn physics killing.

He left it up for download in case you like the idea. Here (http://forum.hidden-source.com/showpost.php?p=126124&postcount=13), downloads are at the bottom of the page, explanations are on the page as well. He also shows his maplist.

He also has a script there that mirrors team damage back at people(The shooter takes 66% of the damage he gives and takes more if he shoots at spawn.). Just thought this might be a good anti-grief plug-in.

Just thought I might put this out there, thanks for your time.

i like the suggestion cus i know playing with only 1 other person is kinda dull after a while. im not sure if its possible with this plugin, but something to add, maybe at the start of each round (when 2 players are present) have a vote happen that if press 2 keep plugin unloaded. if press 1, load plugin. (or keep it loaded and execute the proper commands)

welcome to the forums =P

I've been wanting to put more scripts on the server, but I can't. Eventscripts crashes the server, and more frequently with each new script that is added. If you can port that script to sourcemod, then i'll put it on. The only reason why i have evenscripts running right now is for the modified weight script. If i could get that ported over to SM, i would get rid of event scripts which would make server crashes a lot less frequent. (right now the server crashes 2-3 times a day.) I didn't have the crashing problem before i added eventscripts.

I haven't really worked much with SM but I'll see if I can get some help with it.

Thanks for the welcome btw.

Also, I like the admins on these servers. Whichever Hidden admin goes by "Jack R", I have gained respect for him. There was a bug with my name and it was messing up chat(For some reason my name changes itself and floods chat when I try to spectate). he warned me, and when I told him I wasn't doing it intentionally he simply told me to fix it. {Instead of getting mad and calling it BS}
