Entity Description

Availability

This item is not available in the official game modes by default.

• In Co-op Strike, Counter-Terrorists spawn with this item equipped and can replenish their armor with map placed prop_weapon_refill_heavyarmor entities.
• With mp_weapons_allow_heavyassaultsuit 1, this item is purchasable for $6000. In the Heavy Assault Suit skirmish game mode, this condition is met.
  
  Deprecated:The item is no longer accessible, neither using the buy menu, nor with the command buy heavyarmor.
• Players can be equipped with this item using game_player_equip entities.
• With sv_cheats 1, clients can equip themselves with this entity using give item_heavyassaultsuit or equip other players using ent_create item_heavyassaultuit while pointing at their feet.

Effects

Players that are equipped with this item have...

• 200 armor and receive greatly reduced damage.
• their maximum movement speed clamped to mp_heavyassaultsuit_speed.

In all game modes except Co-op Strike, they also have...

• a tinted screen. The tint is green for Terrorists and blue for Counter-Terrorists. This effect requires mat_postprocess_enable 1.
• audible footsteps while moving, independent of their movement speed. They cannot run, walk or crouch silently.

In all game modes except Guardian and Co-op Strike, players cannot pick up rifles. When trying to pick one up, the player sees the text "Heavy Assault Suit cannot be used with Rifles.".

Bug:When equipped with a rifle using a game_player_equip that has the flag "Only Strip Same Weapon Type" set, then the player's current primary will still be stripped, which, if it is the active weapon, results in a broken viewmodel until the active weapon is switched. This does not happen with "Strip All Weapons First".  [todo tested in ?]

If worn in Danger Zone, holding the +use key for 4 seconds will take the heavy armor off, however not dropping it.

Bug:If a player with this item equipped is given item_kevlar or item_assaultsuit, his armor value is set to 100, even if the value has been larger before.  [todo tested in ?]

Tip:Armor as well as heavy armor can be removed from a player using a game_player_equip with the spawnflag "Strip All Weapons First".
