:runner: Gamemode for Garry's Mod based on the popular Counter-Strike: Source server mod

Zombie Escape

Zombie Escape is a popular gamemode for Counter-Strike: Source, now available for Garry's Mod. Players initially spawn as humans, and after a short amount of time, an infection outbreaks. The humans must escape the infection by reaching the end of the map, otherwise the zombies will succeed. Humans are able to 'push' zombies back with their bullets. Each weapon has their own stats, which affects the amount of push.

zombie-escape's Issues

Problem when there are around 20 players

Hello, I made my server Zombie Escape, I tested without problem, except that when I put bot to test if everything working came to 24 bots, the gamemode starts to bug, the game starts but a " Human Win "appears and the game continues but the Human Win does not come off during the whole game! Arrived at 30 bots, the party bug several not launch all the time but often anyway, 1/4 of the players die and a Human "Win" reappears! Arrived at 48 slots, any bug, half of the players die and respawn zombie and the Human Win is still there! I have to limit my server to 20 slots for no bug, can you fix the bug please? Sorry for my English a little bad but I try to express myself at best in this language, because I am French thank you in advance!

Zombie bosses take no damage from bullets

On maps with bossfights (that exist in 'gamemode/maps/mapname.lua') the bosses receive no damage from any attack save for melee (knife,crowbar) attacks.
Health bar only ever changes from either boss damaging itself (predator's AOE shots can hurt himself naturally) or being meleed by players.Bullets basically go through the bosses.

Specifically on ze_TESV_Skyrim_v3 the error prints:

ERROR: Tried to SetParentAttachment for entity func_breakable (finalboss_tar), but it has no attachment named primary.

Example maps are below:

ze_predator_ultimate_v3   (predator)
ze_TESV_Skyrim_v3   (anduin)
ze_bioshock_v5_6   (big daddy)

In addition to this, on the map ze_minecraft_v1_1 , the buttons that open wooden doors don't work at all, not responding to +use bound button.

The server that was used to test this is still up and I'd be happy to provide access should you need it.

math_counter problem

[ERROR] gamemodes/zombieescape/gamemode/modules/boss/ents/entities/math_counter/init.lua:107: bad argument #1 to 'pairs' (table expected, got nil)
  1. pairs - [C]:-1
   2. unknown - gamemodes/zombieescape/gamemode/modules/boss/ents/entities/math_counter/init.lua:107
    3. Input - [C]:-1
     4. unknown - gamemodes/base/entities/entities/base_entity/outputs.lua:53

any idea? map: ze_skyrimfixv4, ze_bioshock and much more.

[GM13]Gamemode not showing correctly in server browser

In the server browser the gamemode is not showing as Zombie Escape.

Knockback

In my opinion, the knockback multiplier is not enough, may I suggest changing it?

I'm gonna test some values, and see what works.
