That's pretty much the biggest problem with it. The one on DR has about 15 sprays, which adds 30 files for the player to download (one vmt and vtf file per spray). I don't think it's worth adding dozens of extra downloads to the servers for something that not many people will use to be honest, even though the spray files themselves are small the number of files we add still matters, one 20MB file downloads and processes quicker than 20 1MB files for example. That's on top of the fact that players can't use their own sprays like in CS:S and can only use the ones set by the server. That makes the whole thing kinda lame IMO unless you add loads and loads to choose from, which would add even more downloads to the servers and might cause issues with the precache limit.

Congrats @mattypoo @Punky @Leon Mordecai @Frostbitten You guys are awesome!

I've got a temporary fix working for stage 40. Removed the block spawner so the trap is basically just an elevator now, but it is at least passable now and it won't lag the server any more. Stage 91 and 99 are also slightly broken but you can still complete them and they don't cause any lag AFAIK. Hopefully Valve or the map maker can come out with a proper fix soon. Also, there are other maps that the CS:GO update could've broken as well, so if you notice any please let us know.

Welcome back Prez! ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Are you sure? It should save it for the whole map duration, and it worked fine when I tested it. The plugin uses the hint box to display who's spectating you which displays for ~5 seconds by default, so if you don't die when a round ends and you had people spectating you it will carry over into the next round for 5 seconds. Unfortunately there's no way to change how long it displays for or to force it to stop displaying, that's just the way Valve coded the hint box.

Updated the plugin, admins can now use the commands /hidespec and /unhidespec to toggle if they are shown in the spectator box or not. Hope this helps!

Already a feature of the plugin, AOs can use the cvar sm_speccount_hideadmins to control if admins are shown in the spec box or not. I could add an option for admins to control it individually, if that's something people want.

Congrats on the promotion Spiked, well-deserved.

The majority of people stay because they have fun, not because of trails or skins. That means helpful players, a good map selection and a stable server will do far more to get people to become regulars than adding tons of custom stuff.

Who actually takes this contest seriously?
