Drop the csproj Copy* targets and the directory's .gitignore entry. release.sh now assembles a
single tarball laid out like game/csgo/ (plugin, gamedata, compiled Panorama layouts) straight from
the build output and sources; updater.json points at it.
"jRandomSkills - Server Files" is now gitignored build output; releases carry the built plugin.
The GeoLite2 country database moves to "jRandomSkills - SRC Files/packages" and a new
CopyPackagesToServer target copies it into the build output. The shipped configs are dropped:
the plugin writes config.json and skillsInfo.json itself when they are missing.
- Skill card and W/S/E target menu drawn as CCSCustomHudLayout panels via PanoramaManager
(panorama/ sources), replacing PrintToCenterHtml and WASDMenuAPI; WASDMenuAPI.dll dropped
- Custom status lines (cooldowns, charges) overwrite the description on the card; Medic keeps its
description with the charge count below
- css_setoverride toggles a per-player cooldown bypass
- YourSkillChatInfo also gates the round-start skill description in chat
- Language: "[css_useSkill]" becomes the configured button name, "Press ... key" wording,
welcome message trimmed to its first line
- Build against CounterStrikeSharp.API 1.0.375
- #### Fixes
- **Pyro** - Fire damage killed the holder at low health. The regeneration now runs before the damage is applied instead of after.
- **Iana** - The clone did not absorb a lethal hit, same cause as Pyro.
- **Dracula** - Lifesteal used the raw damage, so an AWP headshot healed for 400. It is now capped to the health the victim actually had, works on the killing blow, and can no longer leave the attacker alive at 0 HP.
- **RobinHood** - Stolen money used the raw damage and a hardcoded 16000 cap. It is now capped to the victim's real health, works on the killing blow, and respects `mp_maxmoney`. The victim loses exactly what the attacker gains.
- **Voodoo** - Reflected damage used the raw damage, now capped to the victim's real health.
- **Config** - The `Rifle`, `Pistol` and `Grenade` weapon pools grew every time the config was loaded, so removed weapons came back on the next start.
- **Use button** - Skills no longer trigger when a CT presses `Use` while looking at a planted C4, so the skill key no longer competes with the defuse key.
- #### Other
- Built against CounterStrikeSharp 1.0.373.
## GENERAL
- Added a css_entity admin command to check whether an entity with a given index/handle exists (prints the designer name to chat or console).
- Added a TakeDamage post-hook (OnTakeDamagePost) alongside the existing pre-hook, so skills can now react after damage has actually been applied, not just before.
- Added CreateMolotovProjectile (new CMolotovProjectile_CreateFunc signature) and CreateTrackedChicken entity helpers.
- Added a weapon_mp7 → weapon_mp5sd fallback mapping.
- Added class for KillfeedIcons
## SKILL IMPROVEMENTS
- Aimbot:
-- Only forces a headshot hitgroup once (skips if it's already a head or an invalid hitgroup), and now restores the original hitgroup value in the new post-damage hook instead of leaving it overwritten.
- Tripwire:
-- Reduced the default wire width from 1.5 to 0.7.
## NEW SKILLS:
- Berserker: You deal more damage and move faster as your health gets lower.
- Blast Shot: Press Attack2 with the MP5 to fire an HE grenade.
- Demon Eye: You deal damage to every enemy you are looking at.
- Fire Rain: Throw a decoy to call down a rain of Molotovs.
- Flashlight: Click [css_useSkill] to turn the flashlight on or off; its light can blind enemies.
- Healing Chicken: Your chickens heal you while you are nearby.
- Jetkick: Select a player to jetkick - every shot they fire knocks them backwards until disabled.
- Last Gasp: After you die, you deal damage to the enemy who killed you.
- Take Ammo: Click [css_useSkill] to take the active weapon's magazine from a random enemy.
- Team Teleport: Press [css_useSkill] to teleport to the teammate you're looking at.
- Treat null GameRules as "not ready" so skills are never assigned during
warmup right after plugin load/hot-reload (SetSkill + RoundStart)
- PerfLog writes a header line on first measurement so the perf file
appears immediately when PerfMode is active
