Pasted from SPUF-

Is anyone else having issues with trade_plaza?

I loaded the map on my server and it crashes every time someone dies.

I've wiped and reloaded the server from scratch and this did not fix the problem.

I have the same problem when I try to run trade_sunshine.

I'm looking for a decent trade map to run on my server that wont crash.

I don't have this issue with any other maps.

I could use some help if anyone has any ideas as to why the server is crashing upon death..

Thanks

AFAIK only like one or two people here run a trade server, and they don't come here that often. Don't expect any (serious) responses.

lol you two are about as much help as the trolls at SPUF.. Well thankfully, I found out it is a map related issue. Frankly, I expected more from tf2maps than I did from SPUF, but hey.. w/e.. I've learned that if you never expect anything from anyone, you'll never be disappointed.
I also figured that it was a map related issue as all of my Valve maps and other customs I have on my server run fine. So.. being as I got the map from this site, I turned to this site for help. Live and learn I guess..

Here's the info..
When I was new to mapping this happened to me all the time, every time I went on my server to use the map it would crash on death.

The problem was that I had no spectator point in the map... a quick and simple plugin adds a randomley generated one to the map if you want to try and use that.

If there IS an observer point in those badly constructed maps.. I have no idea.


Here is the link to the plugin that adds an observer point:

I appreciate the help, thanks. (Dont forget your observer points) :thumbup:

Unfortunately for people like you who run trade servers it's the people who can't make real maps who end up making said trade maps and as such they have a tendancy to break.

Oh well.

I've noticed nobody trades on trade maps. Obviously though this guy is looking for help.

Is it possible it's inside the map? Also have you tried turning the server off and on again?
