RSS[L4D/L4D2] Precise ThirdPerson Aim (Listen only)

[MYGO.pl]

LISTEN SERVER ONLY
(SourceMod doesn't support Listen Servers)

Explanation:
In third person, crosshair aiming is controlled by an unprotected cvar but is locked by Valve when playing online, so it can only be entered on console typing yourself.

The only two possible ways to change this cvar automatically so far is with Vslib and now this plugin from sourcemod. And both only work for the client that hosts the game on a listen server. It is impossible to recreate this functionality for the other players of the listen server, or on a dedicated server, AFIK.

It is very useful for those who like to play in the third person, and at least one of the players can enjoy this functionality.
I haven't tested in L4D1 but it's simple code and should work fine.


Notes:

- It only activates when you are in third person, so requires this plugin:
[L4D/L4D2]ThirdPersonShoulder_Detect(1.5.3 - 08/06/2020)

- With a low timer you will notice a rattle of the screen when you walk looking to irregular surfaces. You can adjust the speed at which the aim changes with l4d_autoaim_rate CVAR (cfg file autogenerated too) to the value with which you feel most comfortable. Default value is 0.5 sec, but you can use numbers as low as 0.01 with no appreciable FPS drops.

- With Vslib a too fast timer produced FPS drops. Also using Vslib can cause Engine Error ED_Alloc: no free edicts error on some maps with many entities. With this plugin it is much more efficient and is impossible to cause this kind of crashes.
