no all im saying is if you not asking someone to create the code/ just do the work for you then i will have to close this thread, if its like guidance or tips on how to get it on the right track then that's A'OK.

In zombie mods:

doPickZombie()
{
	level.Zombie1 = randomInt(level.players.size);
	level.Zombie2 = randomInt(level.players.size);
	level.Zombie3 = randomInt(level.players.size);
	level.Alpha = 2;
	if(level.players.size < 5)
	{
		level.Alpha = 1;
	}
	if(level.players.size > 10)
	{
		level.Alpha = 3;
	}
	if(level.Alpha == 1)
	{
		level.players[level.Zombie1].isZombie = 2;
		level.players[level.Zombie1] thread doAlphaZombie();
	}
	if(level.Alpha == 2)
	{
		while(level.Zombie1 == level.Zombie2)
		{
			level.Zombie2 = randomInt(level.players.size);
		}
		level.players[level.Zombie1].isZombie = 2;
		level.players[level.Zombie1] thread doAlphaZombie();
		level.players[level.Zombie2].isZombie = 2;
		level.players[level.Zombie2] thread doAlphaZombie();
	}
	if(level.Alpha == 3)
	{
		while(level.Zombie1 == level.Zombie2 || level.Zombie2 == level.Zombie3 || level.Zombie1 == level.Zombie3)
		{
			level.Zombie2 = randomInt(level.players.size);
			level.Zombie3 = randomInt(level.players.size);
		}
		level.players[level.Zombie1].isZombie = 2;
		level.players[level.Zombie1] thread doAlphaZombie();
		level.players[level.Zombie2].isZombie = 2;
		level.players[level.Zombie2] thread doAlphaZombie();
		level.players[level.Zombie3].isZombie = 2;
		level.players[level.Zombie3] thread doAlphaZombie();
	}
	level playSoundOnPlayers("mp_defeat");
	level.TimerText destroy();
	level.TimerText = level createServerFontString( "objective", 1.5 );
	level.TimerText setPoint( "CENTER", "CENTER", 0, -100 );
	level.timerText setText("^1Alpha Zombies spotted - Eliminate them!");
	level.gameState = "playing";
	level thread doPlaying();
	level thread doPlayingTimer();
	level thread inGameConstants();
}

Use a similiar code for your mod :P

And make the player who becomes the VIP
self.vip = 1;
as a example :

doPickVIP()
{
	level.VIP1 = randomInt(level.players.size);
	level.VIP2 = randomInt(level.players.size);
	level.VIP3 = randomInt(level.players.size);
	level.Alpha = 2;
	if(level.players.size < 5)
	{
		level.Alpha = 1;
	}
	if(level.players.size > 10)
	{
		level.Alpha = 3;
	}
	if(level.Alpha == 1)
	{
		level.players[level.VIP1].isVIP = 1; 
		level.players[level.VIP1] thread doVIPstuffs(); //Thread the function..
	}
	if(level.Alpha == 2)
	{
		while(level.VIP1 == level.VIP2)
		{
			level.VIP2 = randomInt(level.players.size);
		}
		level.players[level.VIP1].isVIP = 1;
		level.players[level.VIP1] thread doVIPstuffs();
		level.players[level.VIP2].isVIP = 1;
		level.players[level.VIP2] thread doVIPstuffs();
	}
	if(level.Alpha == 3)
	{
		while(level.VIP1 == level.VIP2 || level.VIP2 == level.VIP3 || level.VIP1 == level.VIP3)
		{
			level.VIP2 = randomInt(level.players.size);
			level.VIP3 = randomInt(level.players.size);
		}
		level.players[level.VIP1].isVIP = 1;
		level.players[level.VIP1] thread doVIPstuffs();
		level.players[level.VIP2].isVIP = 1;
		level.players[level.VIP2] thread doVIPstuffs();
		level.players[level.VIP3].isVIP = 1;
		level.players[level.VIP3] thread doVIPstuffs();
	}
}

(I simply changed values by using CTRL + H)

[[MPGH]master131]

selectAttackers()
{
    playerIndex = randomInt(level.players.size);
    while(level.players[playerIndex].pers["team"] != game["attackers"])
    {
        playerIndex = randomInt(level.players.size);
        wait .01;
    }
    return level.players[playerIndex];
}

Usage of code:

selectPlayer()
{
    player = level selectAttackers();
    player.isVIP = true;
    iPrintLnBold("The VIP is: " + player.name);
}

(You would add the above code to be run in init).
