I've updated the mod today. It has many small updates, but the biggest update is the gungame. Here how it works: whenever a zombie is killed by a human, a random weapon is always dropped. The more zombies, the higher the chance is that a powerful weapon is dropped. I've made this post for those of you who wonder what the exact odds are. Perhaps we can discuss them.
I've defined the following weapon groups:
int weaponGroups[5][3] =
{// weapon1 weapon2 weapon3 (optional)
{ WP_M1911A1_PISTOL, WP_USSOCOM_PISTOL, 0, }, //group 1
{ WP_MICRO_UZI_SUBMACHINEGUN, WP_M3A1_SUBMACHINEGUN, 0, }, //group 2
{ WP_M4_ASSAULT_RIFLE, WP_AK74_ASSAULT_RIFLE, WP_MSG90A1, }, //group 3
{ WP_USAS_12_SHOTGUN, WP_M60_MACHINEGUN, 0, }, //group 4
{ WP_MM1_GRENADE_LAUNCHER, WP_RPG7_LAUNCHER, 0, }, //group 5
};
These are the drop odds for each group, dependent on the number of zombies:
int weaponDropOdds[5][5] =
{// group1 group2 group3 group4 group5
{ 80, 20, 0, 0, 0, }, //1-2 zombies
{ 30, 50, 20, 0, 0, }, //3-4 zombies
{ 10, 10, 50, 20, 10, }, //5-6 zombies
{ 10, 10, 20, 40, 20, }, //7-8 zombies
{ 10, 10, 20, 30, 30, } //9+ zombies
};
(Too bad that this forum messes up the tabs).
For example, when there are 1 or 2 zombies, there is a 80% chance that a weapon from group 1 is dropped (a pistol, 40% each) and 20% for group 2 (submachine + uzi, 10% each).
Please let me know what you think! Of course, the power of each of these weapons also depends on the amount of ammo and damage, so we can adjust that as well.

Good Job Grenades: we can add those later, perhaps for zombies as a reward for x kills in a row. Not sure if we need stunning because killing zombies is the main priority due to the gungame. |

Good Job Grenades: we can add those later, perhaps for zombies as a reward for x kills in a row. Not sure if we need stunning because killing zombies is the main priority due to the gungame. I also like the update. As for stunning, what if it didn't affect zombie, but would give you a knife to throw, max 5 as in H&S? Hmm, isn't there a "force field" grenade? 5 or more kills in a row should give zombie a reward "force field" grenade what would pull nearby humans to him, great for situation, where 10 humans decide to rape the zombie. And for the next update, IF you decide to implement it, I'd really like to see "random" first zombie, so people wouldn't gang up on the first zombie and make it painfully hard for him/her to infect anyone else. But, really awesome work, Max. Props up. |

Thats what I meant, you put it in better words  This would be nice incase a human ran out of ammo and is trying to run away while still trying to kill a zombie for more weapon/ammo. |

Force field grenade was actually a grenade that helped you boosting. Maybe it could be used for something else in zombies?
But please add your suggestions in the Suggestions topic, not in this thread, thanks.

So how are did the weapon drop odds turn out? The odds are still the initial odds that I randomly picked (as seen in the opening post). What are your thoughts?

I think the weapon drop system worked out really well. Although it's quite annoying, but funny when you face 10 zombies and you manage to kill one and he drops a pistol, lol. But really I think everything works well - enough ammo, weapons got the right damage.

To be honest, it's a great weapon drop system. And so what if you get a pistol... you're not always supposed to get the best weapons.
Good job.

Yup it's good, only thing imo is that M60 machinegun is in the wrong group. AK/M4 is much more powerful - maybe switch?

It's cool that all of you like the current system. I agree that the M60 is very powerful if you know how to handle it -- use single fire rather than spraying and it's golden. So there are no suggestions at all on the drop odds?
