New version available

Includes source for maps, dll and tools -- launch spmod.bat and start a new game as usual.

New version available -- quick reminder: it might only be useful to map designers although some features can be fun in vanilla Kingpin (cvars).

--== KINGPIN FIXES ==--
Removed prices for inexistent items in Pawn-o-matics
Redrawn slot5.pcx to avoid the blurry bilinear filtering
The reload animation for the pistol could be triggered even though the player had no more ammo
Captions pointing to wrong actor (some answers were credited to player instead of sidekicks)
The shopkeeper do not say "sorry, I ain't any" when selecting blank items

--== MODIFICATIONS ==--
Custom episode flags and log entries (32 flags and 33 logs per episode)
Custom stocks for pawn-o-matics
More "scriptnames" for path_corner_cast
Added "don't move" spawnflag to func_button ( 16 )
Added "autosound" spawnflag to func_explosive ( 8 )
Added "noise" key value pair to func_explosive
Added "tiny" spawnflag for pickup items ( 128 )
Added "locksmith" spawnflag for one-handed friendly characters ( 1 )
Friendly characters can be named whatever you want
Friendly characters asking from 1 to 9 bucks will be instantly hired for free on demand
Female characters can join your gang

--== CVARS ==--
sonofsam - Bitmapped: +1 unlock all merchandizes in pawn-o-matics, +2 everything for free (default=0)
sv_useentfiles - Enable creation of .ENT file on map load, which allows quick testing of new entities settings on map reload (default=0)
g_maxgangmembers - Set how many followers can join your gang (only two characters can be displayed in the HUD, followers may disappear when entering a map with too few info_player_coop spawn points) (default=2)
sv_noautosave - Disable auto-save feature implemented in custom maps (default=0)
cl_nohealthregain - Disable regeneration of health lost underwater (drowning) (default=0)

--== NEW ENTITIES ==--
ft_mod_slowburn - Mod for flamethrower, slowburn (available in pawn-o-matics too)
pistol_mod_accuracy - Mod for pistol, accuracy (available in pawn-o-matics too)
misc_model - Custom props support
target_noweapon - When triggered, force weapon holstering like bar_# levels
target_register_epflag - Register a custom episode flag
target_savegame - When triggered, create a save game
trigger_observer - Pretty much like rc_initiation_observer with a few extra options
trigger_superkey - Trigger its targets when player has (or not) specific items or if custom episode flag is registered (or not)
trigger_switcharea - Create area boundaries, trigger its targets when going in and/or out, can also toggle custom episode flags

And here's what I'd like to add:
Conversation scripts for characters in KPL files (along with episode flags and logs)
Re-code the "fleetarget" key value pair, so scared cast could run away to safety
Creating a trigger for "picking items up" (so you can pick an item you shouldn't be able to reach)

You can download it here (source, tools and .def file included), the entity list available here contains info about SPMods features (no tutorials for now)

Thanks... but right now, it's more of a concept really. I should try to make a couple of maps using this stuff.

In "FlameThrower_Fire (edict_t *ent)" (p_weapon.c), search for "ent->client->pers.inventory[ent->client->ammo_index] -= 2;", replace "2" with "1".

(And if you're interested, the "heal drowning damages" variable is underwaterdamage, search it in the source, 4 files have been modified)

New version available, small update (1.3Mb)

--== KINGPIN FIXES ==--
The player could trigger the reload animation for most weapon, without any spare ammo

LOL, that's too much ^^.
New version available, update (1.4Mb)

--== KINGPIN FIXES ==--
Cast_bum_sit now takes damages and dies properly

--== MODIFICATIONS ==--
Replaced KPL format with SSF, the new system allows more flexibility (like setting price and items per pawn-o-matic, I hope I'll get the conversation scripting to work), I might remove pawn_index# from pawn_o_matic entity too... not sure yet.
Added spawnflag ( 1 ) to cast_bum_sit (drunk -- so they don't talk like any standard dude)

--== CVARS ==--
sonofsam: +1 unlock all merchandises, +2 everything for free, +4 infinite ammo, +8 Mods never wears out, +16 infinite clips (roughly like infinite ammo except you still need to reload, so there's a time penalty for shooting like crazy)
spmod_debug: Display misc debug info (some of them were included as spawnflags -- in camera for instance)
cl_noratbite: Disable rat and fish bites

--== COMMANDS ==--
epflag Show available episode flags and their flag number, you can also define what flags are on for the current game


The EPFLAG cheat is my favorite so far (because now, you can trick the game into thinking you did or didn't do key actions):

Load PV_H, get some cash (type "GIVE CASH 300" in the console) get out of the sewers and walk to the guy standing in the right corner next to Big Louie's Warehouse. Open the console and type "EPFLAG". A list of all episode flags for this unit appears. Currently, no episode flag is set -- close the console and talk to the guy. Now type "EPFLAG" again. This time, the episode flag labeled "EP_PV_FIND_LOUIE" is on (a new page is written in the road book saying you better look after Louie). In the game, you're not able to hire this guy before you talked to Louie, found his stuff in the safe and got the key to Blanco's Industries. Let's skip all this: type in "EPFLAG 1 4" (which is "EP_PV_TALKED_LOUIE" and "EP_PV_SAFE_DOCS_DELIVERED"), now talk to the guy again and you can hire him!

Using the same kind of trick, you can also try to load BAR_ST, type "EPFLAG 9" and talk to Bambi to get the key straight to Moker's office.

Because of the way the original episodes are handled in the code, I don't know if it's totally safe (maybe enabling twice the same flag could crash the game, it really depends on how they coded the stuff), but here you go.
