Deception

US: East Official Server: [SHUTDOWN DUE TO INACTIVITY]

With the help of my friends Geferon and polivilas we have managed to port the old and almost forgotten gamemode 'Deception' to Garry's Mod 13. The gamemode was created by Spy and trotskygrad and was ported by myself (Ndo360) and with much credit to my friend polivilas who did the majority of the work porting the gamemode, and Geferon who helped fixed item errors and other fixes. Here is the original description of the gamemode.
+++++++++
What is Deception, you may ask? Well, think 2 Agents from the game 'Hitman' have each other on their target list as well as a VIP.
Except for the fact that they don't know who's who, and have to figure it out.

The VIP's objective is to survive the round by either killing the Agents or waiting out the round.
Everyone else remains a Civilian, who are sworn to protect the VIP.

To get clues as an Agent, you can do numerous things - buy help from the Agency, pick-pocket players for clues, examine them.
To examine a player, all you have to do is get close enough to him, press your spawn menu key and just make sure he remains in your view area.
As soon as the examination is complete, he will be marked as unarmed/suspicious/armed, based on the amount of stuff he is carrying.
Agents get a boost in examining people, everyone else is able to buy a 'manual' and therefore get the boost for one round.

Agents are also much more experienced with firearms than the VIP and the Civilians are. (less recoil, less spread)

As the VIP, well, you can observe people's actions, how they react to things, and then choose to whether trust or not that person.

Upon round start, the VIP gets a VIP ID card, which he can show to people to ensure them that he is the VIP and have them as his bodyguards.
Agents can buy forged VIP ID cards, which they can use the same way the VIP does, but to cause confusion and to make people believe that he is
the VIP. However, the forgery can be noticed by an opposing Agent and the VIP, which will automatically mark the impostor as an Agent on their
side.

If a massive massacre ensues, and there are a lot of civilian casualties, then the VIP will be able to call in the Bodyguards.
Bodyguards are chosen from dead players with the highest Karma.
The gear they get is a FN Five-seveN as well as a body vest.
Their objective is simple - find the VIP and protect him.

But alas, it would take me a wall of text to detail everything and I just wanted to state the basics of the gamemode.

Features:
- Random player selection for Agents/VIPs (essential for a gamemode like this)
- Round system (same as above)
- Various ways of tricking people as an Agent
- Various gadgets for Agents to use
- Money system (nothing special, really)
- Agents can pick-pocket people to find clues
- VIPs can call in Bodyguards after 4 Civilian bodies are found
- Buyable hints for Agents (a la Hitman: Blood Money)
- Uses my "Customizable Weaponry" (without the attachments part) for the firearms
- 3 armor vest types that protect only the torso of a player
- Karma system (similar to TTT, I think?)
- Dead body examination (similar to TTT)
- Map voting system
- Pain sounds
- Limited, slow health regeneration
- Mail system for supported maps
- Stamina system
- Drowning (that's right, players can drown!)
- Low ledge-grabbing system to help overcome low obstacles (such as walls)
- Players can unload weapons that are lying on the floor
- Tips when dead
- Ghost mode when dead
- Ability to break glass without having to use a weapon
- Push around props and play spooky sounds as a spectator to keep yourself entertained
- Buyable radios which allow for long-range communication and the use of a voice chat menu
- 3 round types (Classic, Collective Assassination, Agent Overkill)
- C4 explosive (one of the many Agent-exclusive items!)
- Bodyguards

This port is roughly 95% finished and is stable enough to play online. Please report any lua errors you encounter in the bug report disscussion, and try to give us details so we can figure out what triggered it. The three round types were not in the code from what we see so that wasn't included. Here is the current checklist so far:

Gameplay footage --- Provided by Tap Water
Workshop Screenshots -- DONE
Fix all lua erros -- IN PROGRESS
Create a tutorial for custom weapons -- IN PROGRESS
Create a tutorial for mailbox support on custom maps -- IN PROGRESS
Add Bodyguard system back into the game -- IN PROGRESS
Add C4 into gamemode -- IN PROGRESS
Add in cut sniper weapons back into the gamemode -- IN PROGRESS

Happy Hunting Agents.
