@The_cold_lombax i had that same bug while playtesting: its a conflict with your other mods. check if you have a mod that has "sv_rescue_disabled" set to 1.

for me it was Special Infected Synchronization (Competitive). fixing it was as easy as going to their ems settings and removing "sv_rescue_disabled 1" from the convar cfg file

Hell yeah! This was exactly what I was looking for! Thanks for this.

However, 2 things:

1. Bots don't seem to open rescue closets and ignores them most of the time, it could be related to them not yelling but idk.

2. This is a bit complicated:
I have Yusuke, Sara, Haruka and Blake use takeovers = ["@clone"]. (for 9-12th survivors).

When I transition to the next map with either one of these characters, either one or many survivors get scrambled. (ex. Ellis on the first map turns to Nick on the second map).

I'm assuming setting takeovers other than @random breaks this mod.

EDIT: Error 2 still happens regardless of takeover, could be errors related to having 4+ survivors.

Nah they are optional, you can just use vanilla survivors if you want
BrickBlock 9 Sep @ 8:26am 
Wait I understand now, but are the custom survivors needed?
BrickBlock 9 Sep @ 8:16am 
So, are the Left 4 dead: survivors models a thing in the mod or just a mod that you had while demonstrating the mod?

sure

@ndhart321
Ok I added an option for takeover_dead_survivors_next_chapter (its false by default) and percent chance. Does it work?
ChapCanai  [author] 29 Aug @ 3:02pm 
@ndhart321
Good idea
ndhart321 29 Aug @ 10:54am 
can this takeover be applied when a survivor dies and it loads to the next safehouse?

@ChapCanai, i think its the same as the idea i mentioned before, therefore i too would vote in favor of the mod being made!
ChapCanai  [author] 25 Aug @ 3:49pm 
@Ajiliffe
If no one else has done that, maybe I can try
ChapCanai  [author] 25 Aug @ 3:48pm 
@ebes
ye
ebes 25 Aug @ 3:48pm 
Oh, so like the in-game model switches out once a dead player gets taken out of a rescue closet?
ChapCanai  [author] 25 Aug @ 3:44pm 
@ebes
The player is same, is just the skin visually different
ebes 25 Aug @ 3:25pm 
so basically an arcade system where players switch out?
Ajiliffe 25 Aug @ 3:21pm 
No.. That's not the one, it is.. Well, literally permanent death, i need it so that nothing is changed in the respawn/revive stuff, BUT you are still dead if you died before the transition, seems like there isn't such mod right now, how come? Might have to ask some people around if they could do such add-on
ChapCanai  [author] 25 Aug @ 3:04pm 
Theres a mod called permadeath, maybe thats the one
Ajiliffe 25 Aug @ 12:50pm 
I have an idea, if a survivor was not rescued (and remains dead within the transition) after the transition, the survivor will get replaced... or, stay dead, i dunno, if anyone has a mod that makes the dead survivors stay dead after a transition please let me know
ebes 24 Aug @ 10:07am 
Sooooo.. substitutes?
ChapCanai  [author] 24 Aug @ 12:17am 
@devlos
Understood, thanks for letting me know, and sorry again for not realizing earlier. Later I'll also add it in all the scripts as a comment

@ChapCanai
Just providing credit would be more then enough. :steamthumbsup:
ChapCanai  [author] 23 Aug @ 4:41pm 
@devlos
I got the ParseSettings code from {another mod} that did not support settings order at first, so was modified by chatgpt to add settings order. None was taken from CWL

But if you really were the original author of that block, then I was not aware before but now I understand and apologize, if this is really serious, i will change it

Would you be ok if I credited you? or prefer that I should change the code completely?
devlos 23 Aug @ 9:12am 
Why is my settingsfile code stolen and refactored in this mod from Custom Weapon Lab? Settingsorder to the parsesettings is all a literall copy slightly refactored.

@TheBuilderMC
You can put multiple models in one profile to have rng
TheBuliderMC 21 Aug @ 7:33pm 
So I want to check as an example.

I can download like 5 skins for nick and it'll just work if I put it into the setting profile? or is it one per survivor
ChapCanai  [author] 21 Aug @ 4:32pm 
@Imrgrim
Ye depending on the profiles you want to use, their model and voice should change to that
Imrgrim 21 Aug @ 4:30pm 
i dont understand do custom voices also change? I mean if i have a cj louis and he gets killed he's gonna respawn with a different voice from another skin?
iZEK 21 Aug @ 4:25pm 
@ChapCanai alright thank you!:health:
ChapCanai  [author] 21 Aug @ 3:10pm 
@AnotherAlex
Ye, just need to put all their profiles in the rescue_closet_takeover_settings

AnotherAlex 21 Aug @ 2:33pm 
can custom survivors be saved while useing this?
iZEK 21 Aug @ 10:06am 
flashlight mod? pls
VoidlyUser 21 Aug @ 5:27am 
If i recall this was the original idea they had for the rescue closet initially (feel free to fact check) but they didn't went through because of source limitations. Its really cool to see that concept being fleshed out here
The Midwesterner 20 Aug @ 5:01pm 
It's like when in the Left 4 Dead opening cinematic when they think there's another survivor still left in the abandoned building, except this time around it's an actual living human instead of a Witch.
ChamoChimi 20 Aug @ 4:19am 
louis transitioned
kouga  [author] 20 Aug @ 3:51am 
also in the showcase video, ellis says to close the door, and then when sara does he immediately complains why she closed the door xDD

NOW RESCUE CLOSETS ARE REALISTIC!!!
