PD Pickups not dropping.

[TylowStar]

I am making a PD map and the pickups that you convert into points aren't dropping when players die. I have checked by spawnng players outside the bounds of spawn, and they still do not drop. How can I fix this?

SOLVED

Use dynamic props, with proper prop routing.

How does you'r Logic look?

I'm going to skip some of the details I do not believe to be relevant, like player respawn times. If I am missing something important, please tell me and I'll edit it in.

I'll ignore some outputs that are towards prop_dynamics, lights and the like because they are many and entirely cosmetic.

Prop Model Name: orange_cone001.mdl

This model path is incorrect, and the model itself might not like what you're trying to do with it. For one, the model path should be prefixed with props_gameplay\ because that's the subfolder that the model is in (see below). Second, the model isn't configured to be used as a dynamic prop, which is what the pickups are, thus the game cannot spawn the pickups. Try picking a different model that's configured to work as a dynamic prop.

• OnCapTeam1 - pd_logic - ScoreRedPoints - - 0.00 - No
• OnCapTeam2 - pd_logic - ScoreBluePoints - - 0.00 - No

Also, these outputs should be OnCapTeam1_PD and OnCapTeam2_PD.

Thanks!

Also, these outputs should be OnCapTeam1_PD and OnCapTeam2_PD.

It doesn't seem to work; the text displays in red. The map still functions without the suffix.
Edit: nvm ignore my stupid butt this was sage advice

Yes, it will display red, but still work
