Resolved (Forward Spawn Help)

----------------RESOLVED! ---------------


Okay, I have one spawn for each team in my 3CP A/D map.
I would like to add a Forward Spawn for BLU Team after they capture CP #2.

I have func_respawnroom entities for each room: "respawnroom_blue1" and "respawnroom_blue2"
Staring spawn has 16 info_player_teamspawn entities
Forward spawn has 8 info_player_teamspawn entities

I have a few questions about how to do it.

1. Do I use outputs on the team_control_point #2 to enable and disable the spawn rooms?

2. If so, what entities to I need to enable and disable? Is it just the func_respawnroom entities like this?

3. I tried to name the actual info_player_teamspawn entities and enable/disable them, but then all the players spawned in the same exact spot, so I have a feeling that was dumb. We all make mistakes, don't judge me.

Also, the "Spawn Mode" option confuses me, and I was just curious to know what a trigger_player_respawn_override is exactly.

Is there anything else that I'm completely missing?

#3 actually yes, that's pretty much what you want to do.

Have all your starting blue info_player_teamspawns enabled and name them something like respawn_blu_1
Then name all the forward info_player_teamspawns respawn_blu_2 and have them start disabled.
Then like you said on #1, have your team_control_point disable respawn_blu_1 and enable respawn_blu_2.

If you did this already and everyone spawns at the same single point, I would have to imagine that the other respawn points aren't set up correctly.

Click to expand...
Or if they still spawn at the same single point, OP have to give every info_player_teamspawn different name. If I remember right you can use something like " *blu_spawn_1_ " in output system. Then names would be
blu_spawn_1_1
blu_spawn_1_2
blu_spawn_1_3
blu_spawn_1_4
etz

Thanks for the advice!
I got help in the Steam Chat last night, and discovered the reason they were spawning in the same place. It was because I cloned exact copies of the same info_player_teamspawn entities.
