I want to suggest Adding a Cooldown/Animation to Sheathing .

Yes , You read it correctly , Sheathing . :|

Now The Reason Iam Suggesting this is because the lack of advantage of melee when your close to a Shooter , Your opponent can just Sheath his Weapon , and it "Disappears instantly" , and he blocks in a split second , which really removes any advantage you "Should" have when your in close combat with a Rifle/Machinegun Holder .

This would force the shooter to Sheath his gun a little bit earlier , or face the "Risk of being disarmed" . ;)

I'd like the scoreboard to also include the name of the server I'm currently playing in. I usually enter my servers when they're sorted by ping or by player count and if a friend wants to join me there's no way for me to communicate to them where I'm playing other than "we're currently playing on map X with Y players". Just insert the lobby name somewhere at the top so I actually know where I'm at.

Zombies should eat you when you die in Zombie Survival. They should also prioritise dead people over living people. (Meals) (Gotta eat). It's a tough world.

Press ESC to open the menu, select "Game info" and there you can see all kind of host options, including the server name. We don't want to include too much information in the scoreboard other than the current map being played. The server name might be reasonable to showcase in the scoreboard.

Minimising caused issues in previous versions so it was removed.

Being able to save and load map-rotations. Or a map-rotation class in the script-API.

The reason why is that I often want to switch between a rotation having melee maps and a rotation that has 'normal' maps, but I need to move files which take a server-restart.

if you block an incoming grenade it doesn't just fall to the ground, instead, you grab it and the fuse resets (or goes to half...or becomes double the fuse it was before you grabbed it) allowing you to throw it back and make an epic comeback!

and i also realize that you can play a game of hot potato with this by trying to cook the grenade long enough that the enemy doesn't grab it before it explodes

I think we've all had the issue of having a 5 SS(second slomo) and hitting open that eagle box or whatever and seeing another appear in front of you.Well my suggestion is that If you have a 5 SS,it will turn into a 10 SS if you get another 5 SS.If you find a 10 sec slomo,then you drop your 5 SS or new 10 SS like normal.

Umh, why a separate command? You can do this while pressing down + grab by the way.

I Couldn't Find a Command The Asks the Bot to "Press Down" While Grabbing .


Another Suggestion , Adding Fall/Stagger/Deathkneel VIA Script That is not a Command , but Something You Can "Set" The Player to do , Just Like "SetMaxFire" , The Fall/Stagger/DeathKneel Commands are not working with User-Controlled Players .

If you want a controlled player to execute some script actions you should always disable the player input first with SetInputEnabled, then execute the command and finally restore the player input.

Here a little workaround for making bots to grab dead bodies.
Perform both the grab command and the start crouch command at the same time, then you need to call stop crouch when HoldingPlayerInGrabID in the grabbing bot is other than 0.
Off Topic
For these particular situations where there isn't the complete action you only need to remember that player command actions are executed with a virtual keyboard so think about a creative solution by combining different actions.

For example I used a start and stop crouch for making the bots climb multiple edges in both directions since a "detach from ledge" command wasn't available.

Brilliant .

in the Script i Forgot That Commands Are Performed in order and not together , that's why the bot was not Performing What i Wanted .

Maybe slow down the animation for grabbing a player, to make it look a little neater? And maybe make the running grab different. The player uses sprint while holding r to charge at someone with a grab. the player can also jump while sprinting for a grab.

Add a restart after certain time period for dedicated server? Right now the restart at certain time isn't enough because the server just crashed way too often.
