Description
A gamemode about killing infected and running around.



Virus Survival. An improved recreation of my previous version of this gamemode, now dubbed Virus Survival Classic. Nearly four years of experience later, this version is much better.

What is Virus Survival?
Virus Survival is a recreation of the beloved gamemode Virus from GMod Tower/Tower Unite. One player is selected to be the infected at the beginning of each round, and after a short time, they turn and must tag everyone to infect the whole game. Every survivor has a small assortment of weapons to help them survive, but will it be enough?

This already exists over on GitHub and Tower Unite!
Yes, but I added my own ideas and code to make this version a little different. The main difference is the weapon selection.

This is already on GMod Tower Reunion!
lol.

Why do I need the TFA Base?
Every weapon in the gamemode is based on the TFA Base.

Why do I need MapVote?
Every few rounds, a map vote is supposed to start. I know how MapVote works and it's easy, so this uses MapVote.

Features of Virus Survival
• 47 guns and 2 utilities available to survivors. NEW! Some guns have unique abilities!
• Music to get you in an infecting mood!
• Functionality on any map.
• Only additional sounds required.
• Automatically breaks all breakable objects to reduce camping.
• NEW! Radar for all players to help everyone find each other.
• NEW! Slightly nicer-looking scoreboard.
• and more!

Important for server owners:
• Some guns are a little weak. You can use sv_tfa_damage_multiplier to increase damage.
• By default, a filter is applied that can make maps much darker. Use vsr_filter 0 to disable it.
• You can change the number of rounds per map (default is 10) with vsr_round_limit.
• You can change the minimum number of players (default is 2) with vsr_player_min.

What's new or different in this version over the old version?
This version is coded substantially better. After four years of learning better coding practices and methods, I realized how broken and improper the old version was, then someone joined my server talking about how they played the gamemode. That's when I knew I had to fix it. As my first public release in a year and four months, I present to you the fixed version.

Even though this is the fixed version, it is impossible for me to test every single case. If you encounter any bugs, report them in these comments, my Discord server, or my forums as soon as possible.
