Is there a way to make players in a certain area respawn, eg, when a capture point is taken, people in a forward respawn are moved into a different one?

Disable the first set of info_player_teamspawns, enable the second.

I am pretty sure you can do that, but you don't need to. I can't remember how teleporting works though.

I think that does it anyways, I remember spawning into a start spawn, right when we were capping and it moved me to a forward spawn...

but yea, to make the second ones enabled, adjust trigger_capture_area with the I/O stuff appropriate for what you want. I don't think you can force them to move.

you were probably playing a map that includes trigger_teleport

I think every map with a forward spawn will allow you to cycle either forward or backward in spawn depending on how many points your team holds. It's a common tactic in comp that if some of your team dies at mid but you still take the point, those that spawn before the first forward is active will change class to get teleported to the forward and then switch back to be able to continue playing regularly. You can also do this to get out of blands 1st forward if you're trapped there and don't have control of mid, change class quickly and set up for defense on last.

yeah but if you put a teleport in the spawns then players won't have to do that ;)
