#**Map Restart Workaround** ## Map Restart Workaround
This is a mod that gets around the clientside errors that happen after a zombies game ends. This is a mod that gets around the clientside errors that happen after a zombies game ends.
When a zombies game ends and the clients remain in the server after the intermission restart, clients may experience several different clientside only bugs.

Some examples of these errors include: Some examples of these errors include:
-No sound except music
-Barriers are glitched
-Mystery box is glitched
-A few more minor bugs
These are only clientside so have no effect on the server itself and can be fixed by simply leaving and rejoining.

#**The Workaround** ## The Workaround
Basically, what I did was utilize map_restart in the GSC and I call it around 20 seconds after level.intermission is set to 1. Basically, what I did was utilize map_restart in the GSC and I call it around 20 seconds after level.intermission is set to 1.
What happens is the game uses a map_restart instead of the normal method Plutonium servers use. What happens is the game uses a map_restart instead of the normal method Plutonium servers use.
There is a reason this is a workaround though. That is because when map_restart occurs the game reparses all the scripts its supposed to load in the first place, There is a reason this is a workaround though.

to this fix.

println( "ZM >> We have all players - START ZOMBIE LOGIC" ); So in this function there is a while loop that has 2 potential conditions and it will end on either of them being met. getnumconnectedplayers()
#/ outputs the current number of players in the lobby. getnumexpectedplayers() outputs the expected number of players to join the game, this is determined at
if ( getnumconnectedplayers() == 1 && getDvarInt( "scr_zm_enable_bots" ) == 1 ) map launch. Servers always launch the map assuming only 1 player will join; which is why tombstone doesn't spawn in without mods, why players have 3 afterlives
{ on MoTD, and why doors are cheaper on Origins. Therefore, getnumexpectedplayers() will always output 1 since its value is predetermined and will not change.
level thread add_bots(); The first condition in the while loop will terminate immediately as soon as there is more than 1 player in the lobby when the function is ran. The second condition
flag_set( "initial_players_connected" ); is based on a counter that counts the number of players currently in the sessionstate "playing". Since player_count_actual will exceed the value of getnumexpectedplayers()
} it will never meet its end condition of player_count_actual being equal to getnumexpectedplayers(). This results in an infinite loop since as long as there are more than
else 1 player in the lobby the loop will ever end preventing the blackscreen from passing, and rendering map_restart useless.
{
players = get_players(); However, player_count_actual only counts players that are spawned in and in "playing" state so the solution is to kill all players except player[0], and respawn them after a short delay.
if ( players.size == 1 ) Not exactly ideal, but it does mean all players can remain in the lobby and all players can have sound.
