~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1.1 ABOUT THE PLUGIN
-----------------------
Zombie:Reloaded remake of Zombie Mod with a lot of new features and
improvements. It's made for a Counter-Strike: Source server and runs on a
powerful scripting platform called SourceMod.
1.2 GAME OBJECTIVES
----------------------
The objectives is to change the game into humans versus zombies. Humans try
to survive by camping, barricading and hiding. Zombies try to zombify humans
by using their knife.
At a random time after the round starts, one or more random humans are turned
into zombies. Zombies have certain advantages as running faster and more
health points. Humans have huge amounts of ammo (or unlimited), and their
bullets knock back zombies. A lot more attributes can be adjusted for both
zombies and humans.

2.0 INSTALLATION
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2.1 REQUIREMENTS
-------------------
Zombie: Reloaded requires that the following stuff is installed on the server:
1. Metamod:Source - A simplified API for server plugins. The original
Zombie Mod is run on this one. It makes it easier for developers to
make plugins like SourceMod:
<http://wiki.alliedmods.net/Installing_Metamod:Source>
2. SourceMod - A scripting platform:
<http://wiki.alliedmods.net/Installing_SourceMod>
<http://wiki.alliedmods.net/index.php/Category:SourceMod_Documentation>
3. ZRTools extension (bundled). Provides some extra functions needed by
Zombie:Reloaded. See Plugin Installation (2.2).
2.2 PLUGIN INSTALLATION
--------------------------
Extract the content of the zip file into "cstrike/" on the server.
This plugin is often confused by Zombie Mod, which is actually ovbious since
Zombie:Reloaded is a SourceMod alternative to Zombie Mod.
We suggest having "Zombie:Reloaded" instead of "Zombie Mod" in the server name
if that's the case. No offense to the Zombie Mod team, of course, but we just
suggest this to help marketing Zombie:Reloaded.
2.3 TEST RUN
---------------
The plugin should work with default configuration. Start the server and join a
team. Once the round starts there sould be some messages at the chat with
"[ZR]". Or type "!zmenu" in the chat to bring up the zombie menu to confirm
that the plugin is running.
Next check error logs from SourceMod and look if there are any entries from
"zombiereloaded.smx". If the plugin doesn't work at all or there are error
logs, see Troubleshooting at section 5.0.
3.0 CONFIGURATION
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3.1 UNDERSTANDING SYNTAX
---------------------------
In this manual commands or paths may be written in a certain style that tells
how to use it.
Note that the style itself is not written, but it's used as an indicator to
tell if a parameter is optional or not.
Example syntax of a command:
zr_class_modify <classname|"zombies"|"humans"|"admins"> <attribute> <value> [is_multiplier]
Some paths may look like:
cfg/sourcemod/zombiereloaded/<mapname>.cfg
How to read syntaxes like this is explained below.
3.1.1 OPTIONAL PARAMETERS
Optional parameters is not required and usually have a default value or action.
They are marked with brackets.
Example:
zr_somecommand [number]
Usage examples:
zr_somecommand
zr_somecommand 10
3.1.2 REQUIRED PARAMETERS
Required parameters must be specified for the command to function. Usually if
no parameters are written the command replies with some info about the syntax.
Less than (<) and greather than (>) symbols marks required parameters.
Examples:
zr_somecommand <number>
zr_infect <target>
Usage examples:
zr_somecommand 100
zr_infect "unnamed"
3.1.3 MULTIPLE OPTIONS IN THE SAME PARAMETER
Some commands have parameters that support multiple pre defined options.
Usually it's specifying a name, a index or a predefined value. Each option is
separated by a "|" symbol. Only one of the options listed is used in a command.
Example:
zr_do_something <index|name|"all">
Usage examples:
zr_do_something 1
zr_do_something "all"
zr_do_something "unnamed"
3.1.4 TEXT AS PARAMETERS
Since parameters are separated by spaces, text (strings) should be quoted. It's
a good habit to do this on all string parameters to avoid parsing mistakes.
Example:
zr_infect "unnamed" "player"
zr_do_something "example text. test."
Example of bad usage:
zr_do_something example text. test.
The last example actually have 3 parameters while it should be only one. This
may cause unexpected results and is an example of why strings should be quoted.
3.2 CONFIGURATION FILES
--------------------------
These are the default configuration files. The paths are relative to the
"cstrike" folder.
Type: File:
===========================================================================
Main conf. cfg/sourcemod/zombiereloaded/zombiereloaded.cfg
Map conf. cfg/sourcemod/zombiereloaded/<mapname>.cfg
Post map conf. cfg/sourcemod/zombiereloaded/<mapname>.post.cfg
Hitgroup conf. addons/sourcemod/configs/zr/hitgroups.txt
Class conf. addons/sourcemod/configs/zr/playerclasses.txt
Weapon conf. addons/sourcemod/configs/zr/weapons.txt
Download list addons/sourcemod/configs/zr/downloads.txt
Model list addons/sourcemod/configs/zr/models.txt
The post map configuration file is executed after all features of ZR is done
loading. Commands that modify loaded data must be put in post configuration
files. How to configure each file is explained in their own sections.
3.3 LOGGING
--------------
The log system used in Zombie:Reloaded is pretty powerful and customizable.
It's based on logging flags and a module filter.
The flags tell what kind of events to log. Those flags are stored as a numeric
value in a bit field where each bit tell wether to log a certain event or not.
See <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bit_field> for technical details.
The module filter is a list of modules to enable log events from. This filter
gives extra control of what stuff to log. Use console commands below in the
main configuration file to add or remove modules to the filter.
These commands might not work properly until bug 3828 in SourceMod is fixed
(http://bugs.alliedmods.net/show_bug.cgi?id=3828). It's a bug where console
commands in plugin configuration files are executed late so a command like
zr_log_add_module is too late.
There are console variables for different log settings and exceptions. Place
them in the main configuration file.
Console variables:
Console variable: Default:
===========================================================================
zr_log "1"
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Enable logging of events in the plugin. Fatal errors or errors are
independendt on this setting and always logged.
Options:
0 or 1
zr_log_flags "3"
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
A bit field that specify what event types to log.
Options:
Number - See Log Flags (3.3.1)
zr_log_module_filter "0"
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Enable module filtering. Only log events from listed modules will be
logged. Use console commands below to add or remove modules from the
filter.
Options:
0 or 1
zr_log_ignore_console "1"
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Don't log events triggered by console that are executed by the console
itself, like commands in configs. Enable this command to avoid spamming
logs with events like weapon restrictions.
Options:
0 or 1
zr_log_print_admins "0"
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Print log events to admin chat in addition to the log file.
Options:
0 or 1
zr_log_print_chat "0"
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Print log events to public chat in addition to the log file.
Options:
0 or 1
Console commands:
Syntax:
===========================================================================
zr_log_add_module <module> [modules...]
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Adds one or more modules to the module filter. Use short module names,
see List Of Modules (3.3.2).
Parameters:
module Name of the module to add.
modules Additional modules to add.
zr_log_remove_module <module> [modules...]
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Removes one or more modules from the module filter. Use short module
names, see List Of Modules (3.3.2).
Parameters:
module Name of the module to remove.
modules Additional modules to remove.
zr_log_list
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lists current log flag settings and module filtering settings.
3.3.1 LOG FLAGS
Flag: Bit No.: Value: Description:
===========================================================================
LOG_CORE_EVENTS 1 1 Log events from the plugin core like config
validation and other messages.
LOG_GAME_EVENTS 2 2 Log admin commands, console commands, and
game related events from modules like,
suicide attempts and weapon restrictions.
LOG_PLAYER_COMMANDS 3 4 Log events that are triggered by players,
like chat triggers, teleporting and class
changes.
LOG_DEBUG 4 8 Log debug messages, if any. Usually only
developers enable this log flag.
LOG_DEBUG_DETAIL 5 16 Log additional debug messages with more
details. May cause spam depending on module
filter settings. Usually only developers
enable this log flag.
To combine several logging flags use the sum of their values. The default
value is 3, which is these log flags:
LOG_CORE_EVENTS + LOG_GAME_EVENTS
1 + 2
Most server setups donesn't need different flag settings. Default is fine.
To decode the value you must convert it from decimals to binary, and count from
right to left what bits that are 1. Look up the bit number (not value) in the
table above.
As an example on using the number 11 it's 1011 in binary. Counting from right
we see that the following bit numbers are on: 1, 2, and 4. That is the flags:
LOG_CORE_EVENTS + LOG_GAME_EVENTS + LOG_DEBUG
Most operating systems or distributions have a calculator that can convert
between binary and decimal numbers with scientific mode enabled. An online
unit converter like below can also be used.
<http://www.unitconversion.org/numbers/decimals-to-binary-conversion.html>
3.3.2 LIST OF MODULES

3.4 CUSTOM MAP CONFIGURATION FILES
-------------------------------------
Configuration files for each map is supported. They're executed after the main
configuration files are executed, and are ideal for customizing map settings.
These files are just regular configuration files and can also have standard
console commands like setting map time. These files are optional.
The main purpose of these files is to make it possible to change settings for
Zombie:Reloaded on certain maps. That could be scaling knockback, restricting
certain weapons, changing class attributes or changing ambience sound.
3.4.1 TYPES
There are two kinds of map configs; pre and post. Pre map configuration files
are executed before the modules are loaded. They're useful for changing
configuration sets for certain modules like classes. Post map configuration
files are executed after the modules are loaded. Certain stuff have to be
placed in this one to take effect, like changing class attributes.
Type: Executed: Path:
===========================================================================
Pre Before modules cfg/sourcemod/zombiereloaded/<mapname>.cfg
Post After modules cfg/sourcemod/zombiereloaded/<mapname>.post.cfg
If not explicit specified in the module documentation, use pre configuration.
3.5 MODEL CONFIGURATION
--------------------------
Note: Work in progress. Some flags explained in this section doesn't exist yet.
The model configuration file is a list of models used on the server. Each line
contains the path including the model name, but not the file extension.
The models listed in this file are also precached when the server starts.
Custom models used, but not listed in this file will cause a "model not
precached" error on the server, so remember to list them in this file.
In addition certain flags can be added to mark the model as special, such as
only for admins/donators, hidden from random selection or only for mother
zombies.
Each line is separated into two fields with ";". The last field is optional and
if no flag is specified it's treated as a regular public model.
Model line syntax:
<model path>[; flag]
Available flags:
"adminonly" - Model can only be used by admins.
"donator" - Model can only be used by donators.
"hidden" - Model is not included in random selections.
"motherzombie" - Model can only be used on mother zombies.
Example usages:
models/player/zh/zh_charple001
models/player/zh/zh_corpse002; adminonly
models/player/zh/zh_zombie003; hidden
models/player/ics/hellknight_red/t_guerilla; motherzombie
Put the list of models in:
addons/sourcemod/configs/zr/models.txt
3.6 DOWNLOAD LIST
--------------------
Custom models, materials and overlays must be listed in the download list so
clients will download them. The paths must be relative to the "cstrike" folder.
List files to be downloaded in:
addons/sourcemod/configs/zr/downloads.txt
3.7 CLASS CONFIGURATION
--------------------------
The class system makes it possible to have different zombies and humans with
customized skills. It cannot be turned off. If there are only one class in each
team, the class selections menus are automatically disabled.
The class configurations are stored in Valve's key/value format, and the file
that's loaded should be specified in the "zr_classes_file" console variable.
It's possible to change this variable with per-map configuration files to have
different sets of classes on one or more maps.
Default path is:
configs/zr/playerclasses.txt
NOTE: The path is relative to the "sourcemod" folder.
The file contains a short description of all attributes. Details are explained
below.
3.7.1 CLASS TYPES
There are three class types; zombies, humans and admin-mode. Default classes
are selected on the player depending on console variables and the class file.
Admin-mode classes are currently incomplete and will be validated, but ignored
in the game. This is a special mode in the game, but not the same as admin-only
classes.
3.7.2 CLASS ATTRIBUTES
The list below explains all available class attributes in detail:
Attribute: Value type: Limits/Requirements:
===========================================================================
enabled boolean 0 or 1
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Enables or disables the class. Disabled classes won't show up in the
class selection menus. Also, if some attributes failed to validate the
class will be disabled.
team number 0 - 2
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Specifies the class type (team ID). Class types are filtered in the
class selection menus, so only zombies can use zombie class types, and
only humans can use human class types. These are the allowed team IDs:
0 - Zombie classes
1 - Human classes
2 - Admin-mode classes
The admin class type sets the player in spectacting like mode, but
allows admins to walk around. They can't take or give damage, and they
won't affect the game rules in any way. This feature is incomplete and
classes of this type is ignored in the game.
See the "flags" attribute for admin-only classes.
team_default boolean 0 or 1
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Marks the class as the default class for its specified team. This class
will be automatically selected on new players when they join the
server, depending on what's specified as default in the main
configuration file (zr_classes_default_*). If multiple classes in the
same team is marked as default the first class marked as default is
used.
flags number 0 - 3
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Special class flags that are stored in a bit field (explained in 3.3,
Logging section). Available flags:
1 - Admins only.
Marks the class to be used by admins only. Classes with this option
on will not be visible for regular players in the class menu.
2 - Mother zombie.
Marks the class as a mother zombie class. These classes will be
used on mother zombies. Note that zr_classes_default_mother_zombie
setting must be set to "motherzombies" for this flag to take
effect.
Remember that these flags can be used in a combination (1 + 2), so
it's a mother zombie class for admins only.
name text Unique, not empty, max 64 charact.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
A unique name for the class that is displayed in the class selection
menus. Cannot be empty. If multiple classes have the same name, the

"random" - Selects a random model for the current team.
alpha_spawn number 0 - 255
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The initial transparency value on the player, where 255 is fully

jump_distance decimal -500.0 - 500.0
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Extra forward boost when jumping.
3.7.3 CLASS REQUIREMENTS
At least one zombie class and one human class with no special flags set is
required. Otherwise the plugin will fail to load.
Requirements:
- At least one human class (teamid 1).
- At least one zombie class (teamid 0)
- In addition both above classes shouldn't have special flags set. They
must be clean classes, which is flags set to "0".
Errors are logged to SourceMod error logs if it can't parse the file or if
class attributes have invalid values.
In case of incorrect values a warning will be logged and the class will be
disabled. The class index and the error flags (bit field) in the log message
tells what attributes that failed to validate.
Attribute flags:
Attribute: Bit: value:
=============================================
enabled 1 1
team 2 2
team_default 3 4
flags 4 8
name 5 16
description 6 32

health_regen_interval 20 524288
health_regen_amount 21 1048576
infect_gain 22 2097152

speed 24 8388608
knockback 25 16777216
jump_height 26 33554432
jump_distance 27 67108864
The error flags are stored in a bit field (explained in the log configuration
in section 3.2).
Another quick way to decode it would be to use the calculator in Windows.
Enable scientific mode and enter the decimal value. Then switch to binary mode
(F8) and count from right to left what bits that are 1. Look up the bit numbers
in the table above to see what attributes that didn't validate.
3.7.4 CLASS CONSOLE VARIABLES
There are several console variables to set default class settings for players.
Place these console variables in the main configuration file:
cfg/sourcemod/zombiereloaded/zombiereloaded.cfg
And/or in a map config file:
cfg/sourcemod/zombiereloaded/<map name>[.post].cfg
Example map config files:
cfg/sourcemod/zombiereloaded/zm_panic.cfg
cfg/sourcemod/zombiereloaded/zm_panic.post.cfg
Class console variables:
Console variable: Default:
===========================================================================
zr_config_path_playerclasses "configs/zr/playerclasses.txt"
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Specifies what class configuration file to load. Several class
templates can be used with map configurations.
Path is relative to "sourcemod".
If used in map configuration files this console variable must be placed
in pre map configuration files. Post configuration files won't have any
effect because the class module is done loading.
zr_classes_spawn 0
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Re-display class menu every spawn.
Options:
0 or 1
zr_classes_random 0
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Assign random classes to all players each round.

"random" - Select a random class from the class configuration.
zr_classes_default_admin "random"
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Default admin-mode class selected for all players when they connect, if
found. This feature is incomplete and ignored.
Options:
<class name> - Specify a class name to use as default.
"default" - Use the default class in the class configuration.
"random" - Select a random class from the class configuration.
3.7.5 MODIFYING CLASS ATTRIBUTES
Classes can be modified after they're loaded. This is useful in map configs
to do stuff like scaling knockback to tune map balance.
All attributes can be modified, and some can also be scaled with a multiplier.
The value in the original class cache is multiplied with the specified value
and written back to the modified cache.
When multiplying, the value is always based on the original value, not
multiplying the earlier multiplied value. This also makes it easy to restore
the original value.
Console commands:
Syntax:
===========================================================================
zr_class_modify <class|team> <attribute> <value> [is_multiplier]
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Modify settings on one or more classes.
Parameters:
class The class to modify. Can be any class name, or one of
the following team names; "all", "humans", "zombies" or
"admins".
attribute The name of the class attribute.
value Value to set, or multiplier if a multiplier.
is_multiplier Optional. Specifies wether the original value should be
multiplied by the specified value. Default is false.

------------------------------------
With visual effects it makes it possible to give a creepy ambience. It's
possible to change light style in maps and set dissolve effects on players'
bodies when they die.
It supposed to have support for adding fog, but because of technical limits in
SourceMod it's not possible yet. For developers who wonder why, it's because
it must be a env_fog_controller entity in the map. That entity isn't networked
so SourceMod can't modify or create that entity type. SourceMod may get this
feature in future versions.

4.7 PHYSICS STUFF
--------------------
There are glitches and simplified physics stuff that can be used to get an
advantage. Some servers may not allow all of these tricks.
4.7.1 GLITCHING THROUGH WALLS
(bad thing to do, and should not be allowed)
4.7.2 JUMPING THROUGH NON-SOLID PROPS
Realistic physics in multiplayer games is a expensive task for the server and
it appears to be laggy for players. The solution to this is simplified physics
on props (that is simplified collision detection).
Some props aren't solid but pushes players away from it's origin (center of the
object). This is NOT a engine bug, but a simplified solution. These props are
useful to _delay_ zombies in barricades, but they're still fair to use. If
players got enough speed they can run and jump through them.
There's another trick that works quite good if the knock back is balanced
correctly. If a player look straight down or straight up it's possible to
simply walk through non-solid props, or at the same time, jumping slowly
through them.
4.7.3 JUMPING FAST IN SMALL AREAS
When zombies have to crouch to enter a area where humans camp (like tubes and
vents), jumping fast helps a lot.
When jumping it's not easy for humans to hit the head and they can't get that
good knock back anymore. With multiple zombies jumping fast, pushing eachother
on their way into a tube, the humans are doomed. The tube camping problem much
better balanced.
