Current Item Drop on Immobilization

My first "proper" VScript mod to refresh my coding skills and to familiarize myself with VScript. This makes it so that you drop the current item in your hand whenever you get grabbed by a SI or whenever you get immobilized in general. As a result, it adds a small new twist to your gameplay and kinda acts as a difficulty modifier.

** FEATURES: **

• Any item in your hand can get dropped, including melees, throwables and health items, but not pistols (by default).

• When grabbed by a Smoker, you'll still have a brief time window where you can save yourself and not have your item dropped, before getting pulled completely.

• Anyone that is knocked by a Charger (not carried) can have their item dropped.

• Slipping and grabbing on a ledge will cause your item to drop. Watch your step!

• Getting punched by a Tank will result in having your item dropped.

• Getting incapacitated will cause your item to drop.

• Config file to tweak to your liking. ** Check out the pinned discussion to see what parameters you can change. **

** NOTE: **

• Although the pistols can technically be dropped, they really shouldn't be, so they've been blacklisted by default.

• In theory, bots will refrain from stealing your dropped weapons, but keep in mind that they'll still steal items such as throwables, pills, etc.

Like with pretty much every other VScript, this will only work in singleplayer or a locally hosted server.

This mod is probably janky so expect some bugs. I still kinda suck at VScript so don't expect any more mods like this, at least not any time soon.
