UPDATE 2013:

Edit 1:
Three years have passed and I'm working on an update (or rewrite). It will be the most advanced spike strip script ever released. A few coming features:

1. Popping individual tires instead of popping all tires at once.
2. Customizable by non-coders using a config file; you can specify the following:
2.1. Commands to spawn a spike strip
2.2. Hotkeys to spawn a spike strip
2.3. Teams that are able to spawn spike strips
2.4. Anti-team option
2.5. Respawn time
2.6. Charges (i.e. dissapears after it has been used)
3. Customizable by code too
4. Better placement on the floor

If you have any suggestions, feel free to post them.


Description
This script makes it possible to have spike strips in your script without having to worry about computer resources.

Notes
Sure you can make it better by respawning it after it's used but I wanted to keep it simple. Feel free to improve it.

Pros & Cons
Pros:
- Does not use OnPlayerUpdate or very fast timers.
- Easy to use
- Easy to edit for personal use. If you don't want to use the timer for spike strip destroyal. Set timer to 0 in CreateLargeStinger and CreateSmallStinger.
- Doesn't miss high speed vehicles.

Cons:
- Spike Strips can only be used once on the same player, unless the player dies or respawns.
- Creating stingers while in a vehicle requires to find the proper offset. Otherwise you will get a floating stinger. Works fine on foot though.

Functions
stock CreateLargeStinger(Float:X, Float:Y, Float:Z, Float:A, virtualworld, timer)
returns stingerid, -1 if the server could not create a stinger
stock CreateSmallStinger(Float:X, Float:Y, Float:Z, Float:A, virtualworld, timer)
returns stingerid, -1 if the server could not create a stinger
public DestroyStinger(stingerid)

Commands
/stinger
/destroystinger

Version 3 Download
- /destroystinger command due to popular demand.
- Pickups now respawns after it was picked up so the stinger can be used on the same player more than once.
