This plugin lets dead Special Infected players take control of AI by pressing the “USE” button (default “E” key) when spectating in first-person mode. It’s especially useful since AI bots can be unreliable, and it helps when teams are uneven, allowing players to control bots instead of waiting for a respawn.
