There's a few "sections" to this massive changelog:
Changes that are safe to go in:
c8m3_sewers.nut -- FRED
+ Update that file, with the best new Fred we've come up with
mutation15.nut -- VERSUS SURVIVAL
+ Minimum Tank stuck spawn fixes relevant to this mode's arenas
+ Like RocketDude, will likely require a 10-15 second delay
before deletions, so that anv_mapfixes had time to fully spawn
+ IGNORE_REFERENCE_ONLY
mutation19.nut -- TAAANNNK! MUTATION
+ Same deal as above, except for this Mutation
+ IGNORE_REFERENCE_ONLY
MAP-SPECIFIC SCRIPT SPLITS
+ Above mutation15/mutation19 code, copied, and re-formatted,
to go into map-specific split "\anv_mapfixes\" files
anv_versus.nut -- MAKE_CLIP() THICKENINGS
+ Clips added with TLS (due to re-worked func_playerinfected_clip)
that weren't thick enough, and simply need Find/Replace thickenings
MISC -- UNRELATED / RANDOM BUGS FIXED AS SEEN
+ Bonus fixes
Verbose documentation that can be ignored:
VERBOSE STUDY OF ALL MAPS (& FRED TESTS)
+ SCRIPT FOR VIEWING FUNC_PLAYERINFECTED_CLIP
+ BUG REPORTS SPREADSHEET :: FUTURE TARGETS IN SIGHT
Change of plans:
Regarding mutation15/19, there's 3 options of where this code could go:
1. Place into individual mutation15/19 scripts.
2. Create a new "anv_mutations.nut" file with above's script.
3. Place into individual map-specific \anv_mapfixes\ *.nut files.
Options 1 and 2 result in the same previous "hell" that anv_mapfixes.nut
used to be, before the map-specific split. Though they'd be easier to
maintain there in direct reference to the mutation15/19 scripts, reality
is it'll end up being the opposite as some of these are "band-aid" fixes
for content that was cut from TLS (i.e. restoring the inaccessible Infected
ladders behind the Death Toll 4 barricade's undeletable wrongway signs)
that, once finalized properly, mutation15/19's fixes will change, thus it
instead makes sense to have them all in one place with option 3. Gradually,
like with Dead Air 4 and Death Toll 1, we may find that "SI Players" should
be changed to "SI Players and AI", so it's best to have them all in one spot.
"\anv_mapfixes\" doesn't need to be "just" fixes -- Versus content is going
into them, too. Also un-used mode-specific "placeholders" were cut, leading
to a cleaner look overall -- that invites Mutation-specific fixes.
Examples of future Mutation-specific fixes:
1. Add a "anv_mapfixes.nut" line of code for RocketDude that
exempts clips from that mode -- instead of requiring ReneTM
to add a 10-15 second delay to Kill them all.
2. Versus Survival is no longer a "Mutation", it's an official
mode, so it's better placed in "\anv_mapfixes\" anyway, and
for consistency Taaannnk! Mutation should simply follow suit.
3. Confogl Mutation would, in the future, be worked on to officialize
as an "Advanced or End-Game Versus Mode", which would justify
more aggressive clipping, which would be ideal for "\anv_mapfixes\".
4. Charger Racing would also require additional map props, which
could be placed in "\anv_mapfixes\".
It'd be easy to go over-board with the extent of entities being placed into
"\anv_mapfixes\", but one thing is for sure: Versus Survival is NOT a Mutation,
and belongs near other Survival-specific script, and for consistency Taaannnk!
should be in the same place as it.
** I mean, technically Versus Survival is a Mutation, but so is "Realism",
and "\anv_mapfixes\" is already accounting for "Realism"! They are
Mutations that have been given main mode status.
Conclusion: place fixes into map-specific *.nuts, NOT mutation15.nut/mutation19.nut.
These "band-aid" fixes form the "hitlist" of a future Versus ladder rework and
are potentially temporary.

changes are committed and in, all these are considered fixed:

That should be all of them... and to think func_playerinfected_clips are still worse!!
Not all the above were verified Tank stuck spawns, but all thickened where theoretically useful.
At least they're player-only and won't add new SI bot AI stuck spawns.

to the undeletable wrongway sign (b/c standards), so instead of clipping it
off entirely (gotta keep the cool and definitely-balanced spawns), and to
support this happening in non-Mutations, make it a one-way warp like Dark Carnival 5
was given lots of with TLS to fix its problems. With new QoL clipping. Modded
servers should find this more tolerable than just clipping off the entire area.

CREATE GITHUB GIST OF THESE OBSERVATIONS
Background info:
Versus Survival (mutation15) and Taaannnk! (mutation19) have different
gameplay and spawn habits than Versus/Scavenge. All cases where players
begin as Ghost Infected are safe, since they start on top of a Survivor.
When it comes to Survivors spending a long time in one area such as the
case with Versus Survival, this yields to greater likelihood of Tanks
spawning stuck behind func_playerinfected_clip unable to get out. It can
still happen with Versus spawns, though much more rarely and in some spots
it'd be impossible given the linearity of Survivor progression in Versus
and the Tank's spawn reliance on flow, instead of "ghost" merely getting
instantly converted to Tanks as with the case of Taaannnk!! Mutation.
When it comes to Scavenge, there are no Tanks that automatically spawn.
When it comes to Taaannnk! Mutation, Survivors run through the map and
player Tanks spawn constantly, yielding to the highest likelihood of
getting stuck, plus every map supports this Mutation.
When it comes to non-PlayerControlledZombie modes, func_playerinfected_clip
do not block bots, and will not lead to stuck situations.
Problem:
With TLS, a lot of func_playerinfected_clip were deleted and attacks were
restored. This was generally a good thing, except for cases where new clips
with make_clip() calls patched up overly-accessible outskirts of maps and
were too thin to block the space behind them.
The bigger problem is the countless func_playerinfected_clip that were not
deleted, either because restoring those attacks wasn't seen as being worth
the effort or the had undeletable prop_static wrongway signs that would've
confused newer players as they emerge through them.
Vulnerability:
Any spot with a make_clip() "SI Players" call or a func_playerinfected_clip
that also has navmesh behind it is vulnerable.
Solutions:
NOTHREAT is not one of them, see below.
Thicken make_clip()'s so players can't spawn behind them anymore.
Add axiswarps (i.e. c11m4_terminal) for maps that are otherwise OK but
just have a single issue or so.
Delete all func_playerinfected_clips for maps where it's unusually bad,
provided it doesn't introduce any exploits. Deleting all of them on a
handful of specific maps is safer than blanket-deleting them for all.
What's the "cutoff point" for this, where things are so bad
that they warrant this?
It's warranted if there's 6+ stuck spawn spots and at least one
of them would require several clips. Or if they're attacks that
should be properly restored in the future, but will take a lot
of work to do so (i.e. new Propper models, editing BSP prop_static).
Regarding NOTHREAT:
For c11m4_terminal I was going to try something like this at first:
script SpawnEntityFromTable( "func_nav_attribute_region", { targetname = g_UpdateName + "_tankstuck_rubble", origin = Vector( x, y, z ), spawnflags = 524288 } );
https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Func_nav_attribute_region
https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/L4D_Level_Design/Nav_Meshes#All_Attributes
NOTHREAT is defined as:
Navigation meshes with this attribute will not allow THREAT to
perform its action when it is applied on itself.
THREAT is defined as:
Acts as spawn area suggestions for Boss Infected (Tank & wWtch).
Only nav areas along theESCAPE_ROUTEpath are candidates for
THREAT attribute. If the respective portion of the escape route
path has already been reached,THREATwill be removed automatically.
Requiresnav_analyzeto appear naturally.
So, if it's only Tank/Witch, turns out this might actually be viable. For
this map specifically (c11m4_terminal) a clip blocker is non-ideal since
server configs which delete all "func_playerinfected_clip" would expect to
have access to this area.
Preventing Witch spawns behind the rubble should be harmless, and Tank spawns
very acceptable compared to the alternative of inaccessibility.
c11m4_terminal:
Test-only clip for blocking out the nav region:
script make_clip( "_test", "SI Players", 1, "-360 -626 -100", "128 340 216", "-724 5745 384" );
New func_nav_attribute_region:
SpawnEntityFromTable( "func_nav_attribute_region", { targetname = g_UpdateName + "_tankstuck_rubble", origin = Vector( -724, 5745, 384 ), spawnflags = 524288 } );
EntFire( g_UpdateName + "_tankstuck_rubble", "AddOutput", "mins -360 -626 -100" );
EntFire( g_UpdateName + "_tankstuck_rubble", "AddOutput", "maxs 128 340 216" );
EntFire( g_UpdateName + "_tankstuck_rubble", "AddOutput", "solid 2" );
EntFire( g_UpdateName + "_tankstuck_rubble", "ApplyNavAttributes" );
Result:
NOTHREAT does appear on all the desired nav.
But spawning with "ghost" or running out the timer, if the Survivor bots
are on the escalator, Tank will occasionally spawn outside here.
NOTHREAT is NOT a solution.
Perfect bind, just be sure Survivors are a bit ahead of the area you actually want to spawn:
warp_far_survivor_here
nav_edit 1; z_debug 1
bind v "kill; host_timescale 10; wait 200; host_timescale 0; ghost"
For finding func_playerinfected_clip values:
script printl(NetProps.GetPropFloat( Entities.FindByClassname(null,"func_playerinfected_clip"), "m_Collision.m_flRadius" ))
ent_remove func_playerinfected_clip
find_ent func_playerinfected_clip
Easier func_playerinfected_clip values:
script_execute z_developer_scouteditor
script AssessBadClips()
c1m2_streets:
CONCLUSION
----------
Update the mutation15 (Versus Survival) and mutation19 (Taaannnk!!)
scripts to delete all func_playerinfected_clip and only on this map.
Skyboxes:
Tanks and Hunters will be able to venture to the bounds
of the map, but skybox will stop them.
Under map:
It's possible to get under the map under the overpass if
all of them are deleted, but at worst Tanks will be able
to throw rocks through a displacement, and Hunters/Smokers
won't be able to actually get under the map.
The only way out is also not in the Survival area.
Simplest solution by far.
SKIPPED
-------
Extremely problematic and known solutions would be excessively messy,
as in ZoneMod configs would be almost absolutely obligated to delete
the fixes since they allow access behind undeletable wrongways.
Overpass / back area / bus:
setpos_exact -1249 407 411; setang_exact 2 -138 0
The SI-only clip I added for TLS is the least of our problems when
Valve's func_playerinfected_clip block exit off most of the overpass,
going over the back fence, and the bus.
If NOTHREAT actually worked, this would be viable -- but nope.
Undeletable wrongway to left of staircase chokepoint building:
Could add an axiswarp here, but it'd only solve a tiny spot.
Raised platform behind floodlight generator:
Can also spawn stuck behind func_playerinfected_clip here.
Back of all the hedges after one-way drop:
Tried to re-work this for TLS but it was sub-optimal and cut.
The Tanks spawning behind the hedges here aren't surprising,
and given the curvature of the hedges, unrealistic to axiswarp
and sloppy to clip off entirely.
End area next to safe room:
The func_playerinfected_clip are much farther back than I expected.
I can only reproduce stuck spawns if Survivors are standing in
the event area with the hedge -- not if they're near end safe room.
c2m2_fairgrounds:
There is 1 make_clip() that causes issues here.
Before:
make_clip( "_yeswayfairback_funcinfclip", "SI Players", 1, "-1824 -8 -384", "1824 17 384", "-2272 1824 384" );
After:
make_clip( "_yeswayfairback_funcinfclip", "SI Players", 1, "-1824 -8 -384", "1824 452 384", "-2272 1824 384" );
func_playerinfected_clip confirmed stuck spawns, all of these would
require axiswarps each (some multiple) to fix them:
Behind the fence at the ticket booths besides the RIDES building
Behind the RIDES building with the shipping container
Behind the hedges in starting tent area before first interior
Train tunnel high-up rooftop
Train tunnel behind the wrongway signs
Undeletable wrongway behind electrical box and wall in the final area
Various rooftop outskirts in final area (unconfirmed, too many, just
assume, even though for most Survivors would need to almost deliberate
position themselves to make Tanks spawn stuck)
CONCLUSION:
Like c1m2_streets... delete all func_playerinfected_clip on this map, too,
for mutation15 and mutation19.
Skybox bounds are pretty blocky this map, there's no way to get out
and under the map, there's no Versus Survival on this map so we can
assume the players are always Tanks,
c2m3_coaster:
This map natively gives SI a lot of (unnecessary) out of bounds access,
and the only spot that would have warranted an axiswarp has a properly
thick func_playerinfected_clip that would block spawns there anyway.
The hedge outskirts of the coaster area is a bad place to spawn, but
there is one ladder to get out. Valve also has a wrongway with a dead
ladder out here that won't be restored, or fixed here, as it's no stuck.
Before:
make_clip( "_trailerfence_clip", "SI Players", 1, "-114 -39 3", "126 761 963", "-1150 2887 -3" );
After:
make_clip( "_trailerfence_clip", "SI Players", 1, "-114 -39 3", "702 761 963", "-1150 2887 -3" );
c2m4_barns:
Immediate start behind the fence would be a problem space but with
TLS funcinfclip() were killed there to allow access.
The only confirmed issue is the make_clip() at the end.
Before:
make_clip( "_eventfence_wrongway", "SI Players", 1, "-210 -20 -608", "200 20 672", "-200 2652 352" );
After:
make_clip( "_eventfence_wrongway", "SI Players", 1, "-800 -20 -608", "200 676 672", "-200 2652 352" );
c2m5_concert:
Already solved several Tank stuck spawns that happened in Versus by
using axiswarps -- nothing to worry about here.
This is a good example of the epitome of how bad Tank stuck spots can
get, though.
c3m1_plankcountry:
Another example of an axiswarp, where Tanks pre-TLS could spawn stuck
behind the trains. This was the first time axiswarp was used, and it
also doubles as an invisible wall for Survivors attempting to exploit
out the map to space SI Players cannot access b/c the func_playerinfected_clip.
Needs a 2nd (new) axiswarp though...
Semitrailer to the right of the garage at the start has navmesh behind it.
If Survivors wedge themselves into the corner next to the wooden fence,
Tanks actually can spawn far behind it enough to get stuck. Add axiswarp:
make_axiswarp( "_axiswarp_semitrailer", "y-", 96, "-550 -8 0", "740 8 256", "-9505 10720 155" );
PROBLEM:
Use "r_drawclipbrushes 2" and look at the Survivor-only clips along
the right perimeter of the map. All are also func_playerinfected_clip.
The entire right perimeter is space Tanks can automatically spawn
behind and be permanently stuck.
For mutation15+mutation19, delete this new clip:
EntFire( g_UpdateName + "_meticulous_funcinfclip01", "Kill" );
And then for mutation15+mutation19, delete ALL func_playerinfected_clip.
There's an unrealistic amount of spawn issues to solve on this map, RED
clips and Skybox do a well enough job of preventing too far out of bounds
or under-map access.
make_clip() calls at the end safe room -- thicken those back to prevent
spawns back there, these clips are needed anyway to prevent a Tank player
from potentially going too far out of bounds, on top of the safe room,
and standing on the trigger to prevent Survivors from finishing.
Before:
make_clip( "_meticulous_funcinfclip02", "SI Players", 1, "-733 -8 0", "640 8 768", "-2668 416 256" );
make_clip( "_meticulous_funcinfclip03", "SI Players", 1, "-198 -16 0", "198 16 961", "-3516 543 61", "0 -50 0" );
make_clip( "_meticulous_funcinfclip04", "SI Players", 1, "-198 -16 0", "1375 16 961", "-1846 433 61", "0 10 0" );
After:
make_clip( "_meticulous_funcinfclip02", "SI Players", 1, "-733 -100 0", "640 8 768", "-2668 416 256" );
make_clip( "_meticulous_funcinfclip03", "SI Players", 1, "-198 -100 0", "320 16 961", "-3516 543 61", "0 -50 0" );
make_clip( "_meticulous_funcinfclip04", "SI Players", 1, "-198 -360 0", "1375 16 961", "-1846 433 61", "0 10 0" );
Being the map with the most ladders, most of them on the perimeter
and useless, at least killing all func_playerinfected_clips won't
make them all permstuck spots... they'll actually see some use now lol.
c3m3_shantytown:
Seems fine, cleaning up start area for TLS fixed a lot.
Navmesh doesn't go far out the map, unlike map 1. At the area with
the generator, there's also a distant corner with wrongways and
func_playerinfected_clip -- but they're thick and block spawns
over the slightly over-extended navmesh.
Hard Rain:
All fine.
c5m2_park:
Concrete barricade at the start has an unusable Infected ladder behind
it, but the func_playerinfected_clip extends far back blocking spawns.
One exception is a starting rooftop, with a wrongway, and 1 exposed nav
area behind it, I could repro getting Tank to spawn back there. There's
also a spot to permanently fall into if you spawn back there. Instead of
using an axiswarp, just block the nav area behind it with a clip -- no
one is going to be inconvenienced by the existence of this clip and it
avoids needing to patch the permstuck since it'll be impossible to reach:
make_clip( "_tankstuck_startroof", "SI Players", 1, "-106 -240 0", "86 240 196", "-2936 -816 -58" );
c5m3_cemetery:
UNRELATED:
New ladder to fix permstuck spot far back in manhole one-way area:
make_ladder( "_ladder_permstuckmanhole_cloned_manholeblownwall", "3778 656 100", "3769 2954 -42", "0 -90 0", "0 -1 0" );
c5m4_quarter:
CONCLUSION:
Delete all func_playerinfected_clip.
The map Skybox/clipping is tight enough and there's not even
any walkable space under the entirety of this map.
Countless problems, where navmesh extends far beyond wrongway signs
which have func_playerinfected_clip:
Both ends and the side of the first mainstreet have wrongway
signs with extensive navmesh and even unusable ladders behind
them (that weren't worth restoring with TLS / undeletable wrongways)
Both ends of second mainstreet.
The entire wide road leading to the end area's overpass has
unusable ladders, inaccessible areas, and excessive navmesh
3 sections of fence in the end area cannot be climbed, have
undeletable wrongway signs, but at least have ladders behind
them allowing escape once func_playerinfected_clip are deleted
Contender for worst map. Need a future BSP/LMP edit to restore that
end overpass attack, as well -- it's all awful.
Passing:
Navmesh extends very far beyond wrongway signs, BUT func_playerinfected_clip
were made thick enough (thanks Valve) to eliminate any and all issues.
There's lots of navmesh to spawn on, but it's all thickly blocked off.
c6m1_riverbank:
Spoke too soon -- the fence at the start has its func_playerinfected_clip
extend far back, but not back enough to cover all navmesh and not off to
the side, where Tanks can spawn stuck if Survivor's backs are to the fence:
make_clip( "_tankstuck_startfence", "SI Players", 1, "-251 -760 0", "173 216 1513", "-261 2872 87" );
And extend the yellow block added with TLS clip back...

Delete func_playerinfected_clip that blocks SI access from a closet at the end:
kill_funcinfclip( 196.497 ); // Allow SI access into end closet (the only funcinfclip in entire map)
c8m1_apartment:
Could've been hell but for TLS extensive clip rework, func_playerinfected_clip
were deleted and the replacement clips replicated their thickness. No issues.
Nevermind -- there's a few problematic back alleys... and axiswarps on this map
would be bad practice since they'd be used at inclines where the axis offset
would result in the player getting stuck -- so use make_clip() for all.
One clip just needs lengthening so it reaches the ground...

make_clip( "_tankstuck_warehousestrip", "SI Players", 1, "-16 -813 0", "48 731 666", "10488 7589 540" );
Lots of places in the final area after exiting from manhole. Instead of making
massive clips everywhere (at least 3 very large clips required), and given the
likelihood of Tanks spawning BEHIND Survivors not even falling victim to most
of this stuck potential, simply delete their specific func_playerinfected_clip...
even axiswarps would be overkill:
kill_funcinfclip( 606.217 ); // Delete clip behind a fence and inaccessible ladder
kill_funcinfclip( 733.138 ); // Delete clip for end area backstreet wrongway sign left
kill_funcinfclip( 762.564 ); // Delete clip for end area backstreet wrongway sign right

c8m4_interior:
Other side of window glass in lobby has no navmesh, whew.
No navmesh on top of elevator either, else they'd be stuck between wrongways.
Crash Course:
EXTREMELY EXCESSIVE navmesh that allows players to potentially spawn far
outside the map, but ladders exist to get back in bounds, and there's no
func_playerinfected_clip or wrongways that hinder getting back in bounds.
Lots of space to move around, all traversible, no problems.
Behind map 1 safe room is ALMOST a problem but Valve's func_playerinfected_clip
are thick and block un-noclipping in all areas behind there.
Map 2 -- some potential problem areas, but Valve's clips are thick for most.
Extremely well-made, thick, and thorough func_playerinfected_clips.
c9m2_lots:
One exception is behind starting safe room, the func_playerinfected_clip is
not thick enough to fully block all navmesh behind there:
make_clip( "_tankstuck_startback", "SI Players", 1, "-120 -900 0", "120 900 1370", "-835 -110 -223" );
c10m1_caves:
Along the entire left side of the map is a bad place for stuck spawns
as the navmesh extends far beyond the func_playerinfected_clip. Also,
deleting all func_playerinfected_clip on this map would open up several
ways to get under the map, permstuck'd, or players getting plain lost.
To solve stuck spots while minimizing damage, delete only specific ones,
and patching them up flawlessly isn't critical, since Versus Survival is
not on this map, so Smokers aren't getting under it:
kill_funcinfclip( 1145.18 ); // Spawn left 1st
kill_funcinfclip( 1127.68 ); // Spawn left 2nd
kill_funcinfclip( 1110.42 ); // Spawn left 3rd
kill_funcinfclip( 1059.74 ); // Spawn left 4th
kill_funcinfclip( 1054.83 ); // Spawn left 5th
kill_funcinfclip( 1216.59 ); // Tunnelside
kill_funcinfclip( 1000.2 ); // Cliffside
kill_funcinfclip( 597.979 ); // End cave connection to map 2
That last funcinfclip "End cave connection to map 2" has an inaccessible
ladder in what would've been a permstuck spot -- cool easter egg to keep,
definitely don't thickly clip that off. Note that I'm leaving the flat
tree line, which is actually a deletable func_illusionary... player can
still walk through it (after kill_funcinfclip) to reach easter egg.
Tanks will be able to go out of bounds, but Skybox stop mostly all efforts,
and the most harm this could possibly cause is them throwing rocks.
Semi-sloppy all-encompassing Taaannnk-only clip -- to prevent easily falling
into a permstuck spot:
make_clip( "_tankstuck_tunnelside", "SI Players", 1, "-1700 -200 -1337", "1700 1024 610", "-13902 -10396 656", "0 45 0" );
If Survivors stand at the tunnel's end barricade Tank will almost always spawn
far behind it stuck with no ladders -- once blocked off, Tank doesn't spawn
back here at all anymore, not even the part that isn't func_playerinfected_clipped,
which is OK, since it's better than spawning stuck exposed to world void:
make_clip( "_tankstuck_tunnelend", "SI Players", 1, "-240 -550 0", "240 600 216", "-12998 -4435 -64" );
c10m2_drainage:
I've never seen a Versus Tank spawn stuck inside the 3 event area tunnels.
In Versus Survival / Taaannnk that would be possible, though.
There's also lots of func_playerinfected_clip in the end area that navmesh
extends far beyond, as well... axiswarps are dumb, deleting func_playerinfected_clip
would allow players to go to the far extents of the map, they can walk far
enough and fall into the map, emerge through displacement walls, etc.
Clips would need to be far too huge to solve this.
One axiswarp would need to be angled, and is dumb since it doesn't stop a
bad Tank spawn from still traveling to map extents.
Killing all func_playerinfected_clip on this map... sounds like the best option?
And that's concerning when it introduces potential exploits.
Those "exploits" would only impact the end area, NOT the small Versus Survival area.
To let this map slide, and for just a Mutation, deleting all these clips on
some maps (instead of just specific ones) will be the minimalist code solution.
ALTERNATIVE PLAN ??:
1. Fix make_clip() calls by thickening them, the ones that create real issues
2. Delete all func_playerinfected_clip for all maps, in both Mutations ??
3. AssessBadClips() to assess what was deleted, and patch created exploits
4. Profit ?? Avoid MASSIVE_CODE_BLOAT just for 2 Mutations.
c10m3_ranchhouse:
Lots of ways to get under the Versus Survival area if all funcinfclip are deleted.
Fortunately the navmesh/funcinfclip at the Survival area behave, it's just
earlier deadends and mountaintops in the map that would be problematic.
Deleting all func_playerinfected_clip on this map would be objectively bad.
Delete specific ones, more so near the beginning, and call it a day:
kill_funcinfclip( 668.433 ); // Wrongway in beginning area
There's a far corner where deleting the func_playerinfected_clip would allow
a player to unknowingly get themselves stuck behind another funcinfclip, so
here it's actually best to just use a new thick make_clip() since a clip
would've been needed to resolve a stuck spot anyway:
make_clip( "_tankstuck_cornerpath", "SI Players", 1, "-700 -800 -145", "800 790 1360", "-13598 -9362 68" );
The mountaintop's func_playerinfected_clip are thick enough to cover MOST
excessive navmesh, except this small wedge:
make_clip( "_tankstuck_mountainwedge", "SI Players", 1, "-100 -100 0", "100 100 1300", "-8388 -3525 300" );
Delete func_playerinfected_clip along treeline, to solve at least 2 stuck spots:
kill_funcinfclip( 2248.58 ); // Treeline
c10m4_mainstreet:
Lots of possibilities to spawn behind the long row of houses, which
have thick func_playerinfected_clip but they're not thick enough. Block
all of these with a mutation15/19-exclusive long clip:
make_clip( "_tankstuck_houserow", "SI Players", 1, "-2260 -440 0", "3450 900 1850", "68 158 -100" );
In Versus Survival's event area, the end of the street is a popular camp.
It's also easy to spawn as Tank stuck behind the func_playerinfected_clip
there. With TLS, given the undeletable wrongway sign, reviving the Infected
ladder back there was done, but cut to maximize quality -- what resulted is
the stuck spot. As it's only an issue in mutation15/19, and for arguable
balance reasons to allow Survivors to have their back safely against the
barricade, just create a large clip to block off the navmesh behind the
barricade... hurts, but in the future we may re-restore it:
make_clip( "_tankstuck_endbarricade", "SI Players", 1, "-400 -900 0", "400 900 1700", "3822 -3970 0" );
Can't reproduce a spawn here, but it's the last uncovered excessive navmesh:
make_clip( "_tankstuck_excesscorner", "SI Players", 1, "-200 -100 0", "200 100 1700", "-2520 -5048 -64" );
c10m5_houseboat:
This map is the definition of excessive navmesh, but at least apparently
all the func_playerinfected_clip are extremely thick and cover all of it.
Doesn't seem to be any issues here.
c11m1_greenhouse:
The low ground has minimalist navmesh. At the Smoker ladder setup there is
a part of a large navarea sticking through a func_playerinfected_clip, but
I can't reproduce a spawn behind it, and it's only a small bit of nav.
In the end area, there's a lot of navmesh behind the fence barricade and
the wrongway signs behind it -- there's a lot of area to explore back there,
but it's harmless, so just delete that clip:
kill_funcinfclip( 1154.43 ); // End area fence barricade
c11m2_offices:
Tight interconnected map, one issue behind this fence though, clip it
because killing the clip would expose the player to getting stuck
behind another clip:
make_clip( "_tankstuck_fencenavarea", "SI Players", 1, "-64 -64 0", "64 64 1400", "10314 3862 16" );
Final street has wrongway barricades at both ends, both of which Tanks
can spawn behind -- delete those func_playerinfected_clip as the most
minimalist solution, it'd just expose the player to NODRAW ugly but
only if they knowingly venture away from critical path:
kill_funcinfclip( 1043.94 ); // Final street left barricade
kill_funcinfclip( 1493.36 ); // Final street right barricade
At some point, exposing players to ugly NODRAW space in niche Mutations
could put them on a track of game development in life by sparking their
curiosity... this isn't so bad tbh.
c11m3_garage:
It's extremely common to spawn stuck on the opposite side of the
fence at the start. Instead of deleting the func_playerinfected_clip
and adding Infected ladders (should be done optionally in the future
anyway), which would still expose the player to map 2's eerie space,
just block it off entirely with a clip. Roof spawns better anyway:
make_clip( "_tankstuck_startfence", "SI Players", 1, "-1200 -80 0", "720 58 1800", "-4947 -3786 16" );
Above clip will only be mutation15/19, so doesn't hurt custom Versus configs.
At the transformer yard / Versus Propper brick wall, "_yeswayfence_funcinfclip1"
is thick enough to cover most of the navmesh to bother thickening it more,
I cannot reproduce a Tank spawn on the tiny sliver behind it.
Overall, TLS construction area rework prevented a few would-have-been issues,
and Valve's wrongway func_playerinfected_clip are thick where they need to be.
No more apparent issues.
c11m4_terminal:
Add an axiswarp -- instead of deleting the func_playerinfected_clip (which
has an undeletable prop_static wrongway sign), just warp the player through
it. Servers are free to delete this and would notice the least difference
from solving this with a clip.
make_axiswarp( "_tankstuck_rubble", "x+", 64, "-8 -88 0", "7 120 192", "-604 5248 296" );
Extra slanted clip to assist with climbing OUT of the rubble:
make_clip( "_tankstuck_rubble_clip", "SI Players and AI", 1, "-95 -128 0", "60 128 4", "-720 5248 360", "-45 0 0" );
Blocker from falling out of bounds:
make_clip( "_tankstuck_rubble_oob", "SI Players", 1, "-2 -56 -32", "2 56 56", "-906 5256 344" );
After the Atlas statue beyond the rubble, the very distant wrongway sign
has a thin func_playerinfected_clip... can't reproduce a spawn behind
there, and it is very far away, so I think ignore that one.
c11m5_runway:
Unprecedented walkable space for a map, and the func_playerinfected_clip
are extremely thick, so there's no issues here.
c12m1_hilltop:
After the bridge there's a house with 2 wrongways behind it and lots of
navmesh behind them -- thicken those func_playerinfected_clips (note that
eventually these clips could be used to REPLACE them entirely):
make_clip( "_tankstuck_wrongwayone", "SI Players", 1, "-320 -800 0", "0 750 1740", "-11967 -10090 450" );
make_clip( "_tankstuck_wrongwaytwo", "SI Players", 1, "-610 0 0", "180 460 1740", "-11604 -9345 450" );
CAUTION:
For servers that delete ALL func_playerinfected_clip, there is
a ladder up the cliff that the new "_tankstuck_wrongwayone" clip
would immediately block.
At this point, with all these stuck fixes, there's very little
reason for these clips to appear in Versus mode anyway... there's
no way a Tank will spawn behind there in Versus, and Ghost Infected
appear on top of Survivors... there's no reason to have them.
So, really should be mutation15/19-only at this point... MOST of them.
What's 100% fine for vanilla Versus can and might result in fringe
conditions depending on how competitive servers allow access behind
undeletable wrongway signs (or deletable ones).
Two make_clip()'s at end rooftop have navmesh behind them, so thicken them...
Before:
make_clip( "_meticulous_funcinfclip08", "SI Players", 1, "-777 -8 0", "1000 8 1372", "-5988 -6941 820" );
make_clip( "_meticulous_funcinfclip09", "SI Players", 1, "-205 -8 0", "1000 8 885", "-5988 -6941 -65" );
After:
make_clip( "_meticulous_funcinfclip08", "SI Players", 1, "-777 -8 0", "1000 960 1372", "-5988 -6941 820" );
make_clip( "_meticulous_funcinfclip09", "SI Players", 1, "-205 -8 0", "1000 960 885", "-5988 -6941 -65" );
c12m2_traintunnel:
The end of the tracks outside has navmesh respect the func_playerinfected_clip,
the top map 1 area has no navmesh, everything is good... except the end.
Add a clip that extends further down the tracks at the end to block excess nav:
make_clip( "_tankstuck_tunnelend", "SI Players", 1, "-320 -800 -120", "450 258 240", "-1551 -10785 50" );
Another (smaller reason this time) for making this mutation15/19-only: above
clip is a little bit too thick toward the safe room and blocks exploration of
the map 3 section that's considered a small easter egg since it can be accessed
from map 2... so, yeah, don't add this to Versus... there's no reason for it.
NEW PERMSTUCK:
make_clip( "_permstuck_tunnelend", "SI Players", 1, "-16 -16 -16", "16 16 32", "-1445 -10327 -4" );
c12m3_bridge:
After redoing the huge grouped func_playerinfected_clip for TLS, there's
only 2 left: one that's OK for the bridge ("bridge_pz_clip") and then
at the end of the train tunnel, a wrongway, remove for mutation15/19:
kill_funcinfclip( 311.003 ); // Wrongway at end of train tunnel
Other than that, the replacement make_clip()'s for TLS should be thickened...
an overwhelming several of them, but it must be done to be 100% thorough...
Total list for reference == 2 + 3 + 4 + 7 + 8 + 9 + 10 + 12 + 13
Total of 12 don't need thickening

c12m4_barn:
60 func_playerinfected_clip -- :(
Most func_playerinfected_clip smooth the perimeter's wire fences.
There's a gap in those clips behind the safe room, cannot reproduce it,
but it'd be a really annoying place to ever spawn stuck:
make_clip( "_tankstuck_safeback", "SI Players", 1, "-170 -640 -100", "170 225 1700", "7704 -11710 425" );
No other problems -- the first far end of the traintracks has a wrongway
and func_playerinfected_clip that's very far away, and behind the end
safe room the clip is extremely thick.
c12m5_cornfield:
Already re-did the hard func_playerinfected_clip for TLS.
Doesn't appear to be any issues.
Cold Stream:
No apparent issues. Each map's environment is pretty similar, and problems
instead usually come with maps that are heavy on architecture or streets,
or areas on the map's perimeter only player Infected can access... this
campaign is on short supply of all that.
Entire campaign also has 0 func_playerinfected_clip.
c13m2_southpinestream:

Last Stand:
Good.
Map 1 has 3 func_playerinfected_clip (3/3 for the campaign) behind the start
area to block off the wrongway -- they're thick, and how it's done.
Curling/Tutorial/Sndscape/Credits:
Sndscape: no nav, no problem. Only Tutorial is important and it looks good.
z_developer_showupdate.nut:

// DebugDrawText() was fixed to work with BOTH "types":
//
// Type A Blood Harvest 1 where GetOrigin() is non-0's (VERY RARE)
// Type B Dead Center 2 where vecMins is better (MAJORITY OF MAPS)
//
// If vecMins is used but Origin is all-non-0, then it will bug like Blood Harvest 1
// showing all text outside the map. Without reconciling the discrepancy there was
// for the longest time no way to get the "best of both worlds".
//
// While vecMins only pinpoints a "corner" it's still far better than all 0's, but
// the bigger problem was DebugDrawText() never overlaying correctly on the all-0
// maps which caused me to resort to MASSIVE_TRIAL_AND_ERROR for the vast majority.
//
// Note "vecMins - vecMaxs" was far outside of map, and other efforts. The problem
// was that while Dead Center 2's mins/maxs work to DebugDrawBox(), with DebugDrawText()
// it can't "infer location" from mins/maxs because they're not possible parameters,
// but using either-or is just fine!! This isn't 100% flawless on Blood Harvest 1,
// IDK why there's exceptions, but for 99% of cases... it would've saved me HOURS!!

Known issue:
c2m5_concert cases needed shadows so they don't vanish.
One cast shadow is on the entrance gate and ugly.
Tried "light_dynamic" (both spot+omni) but neither remotely "cancel out"
the prop's shadow. There's also these, "shadowcastdist" sounds useful
but doesn't change anything (likely meant for "prop_static"0:
Disable Receiving Shadows (disablereceiveshadows) <boolean>
Prevent the entity from receiving shadows on itself.
Shadow Cast Distance (shadowcastdist) <integer>
Sets how far the entity casts dynamic shadows. 0 means
default distance from the shadow_control entity.
Which don't help. Future options to try:
1. Script to toggle EnableShadow + DisableShadow whenever a
client joins the server? Yeah, right...
2. Spawn as a prop_physics_override and immediately DisableMotion,
then also DisableShadow -- surely physics props are immune to
the vanishing absurdity ??
3. Remove the props -- can still get stuck by chopper on them anyway.
But they are unique, and reference Earl's Gator Village.
