Cvar for Auto-Infection

[Tabajara 7.7]

Well i'm here to talk about this new feature that is pissing off a couple of persons in ZPS :

+ Added infection to random player when there's not enough zombies.

After 3 months, this feature has your pros and cons. People saying that this help ZPs with the ragers that the round don't restart, but select a "random" survivor to put in the zombie team.
But from some people words, this hasn't been totally "random". People saying that was select to be zombie more than 2~3 times in the same map to replace the rager zombie(s) and that people starting to don't like this feature which was supposed to satisfy the players.
Most of the suggestions is to creat a rcon (CVAR) for this feature.

For example the feature about late players joing in the round :

+ Added cvar to control latejoining: mp_latejointim

Why not put a cvar for this feature of auto-infection, that put this command in the hands of the owner of the server.

And maybe, check this "random" system to select better other players.

Thank you for your time. Waiting feedback.

It's random and from being random there's a chance someone can be picked again.

I personally see no reason why we couldn't add a cvar. I can understand the frustration it brings and why some might not want ragequit infection, after all you are pretty much punishing someone who did nothing wrong.

That doesn't exactly answer the question on whether they can have a cvar or not to enable/disable

ya would be nice if there is a way to turn it off for those who don't prefer it.

Personally I enjoy it, however it can be frustrating when you go zombie the next round.

Talked about this earlier, if there is a way to "mark" players who get autochosen or simply who has started zombie in any round, so they won't be chosen zombies more than once.

It happens to me very often that someone ragequitts and im getting selected to get infected -.- A cvar would be really helpful.

The problem is this system hasn't been soo much "random".

You have 70% chance to be infected again, 30% for other random person than you.

Excellent idea, Tabajara. Quite a few people have suggested that option.
