My reasoning was exactly that. I was only including entities that directly related to the mode functioning properly to keep it simple. I can probably put them in though since it isn't really that big of a thing.
I just downloaded the pack now. I'm confused on where I find the Gametypes. I'm not sure if cp_game_entities is the one I'm looking for, because I don't know where else it'd be. Also, I had Filter Control enabled, but the User tab is blank, so I don't know where the props are.
Edit: So i tried launching TF2. Got a disk read error. I'm going to reinstall the ABS pack before trying anything else.

Both of your questions have the same answer. The game entities and the props are both in their own maps (VMFs), and you need to open them up in Hammer like you would any other map. By default they are installed to steamapps\common\Team Fortress 2\content\tf\mapsrc, which should be the default directory Hammer uses when you save/open maps... but it turns out it isn't anymore.
I just went to check by deleting my config and letting Steam remake one. Apparently the default directory is now steamapps\common\Team Fortress 2\sourcesdk_content\tf\mapsrc, which would explain why so many people have been having trouble finding the libraries. I'll have to get an update out and fix that path. Actually I think it is about time I bother writing my own installer so I have more power/flexibility at my disposal.

I am not doing anything with RD until Asteroid is out of beta since the entities are subject to change.
goddammit Valve why can't you just fucking bring back the working all-in-one SDK
item_teamflag:
input TurnOff(void) : "Hides the model."
input TurnOn(void) : "Shows the model."
input skin(integer) : "Set the skin to be used"
Does anyone use these anymore? With the new restrictions/support of parenting to the flag and custom models and stuff I feel like they have little use beyond weird people like me (I added them years back when we needed custom flag stuff). If they aren't needed by anyone I could remove the entire flag entry in my FGD (now that valve's caught up) so that it doesn't need attention from me when they add stuff.

I can't find your early post about it, but looking at my doors I wasn't experiencing this... you didn't by chance rotate the doors, did you?

You better write down somewhere what exactly you did to get that.
(Or you just make one for my water too)
Cubemaps now have this thing:
Some people have used skip brushes grouped to cubemaps for positioning. For those that haven't or don't know why: player view height is around 64 units from the ground, so for the most correct reflections the cubemaps should be that high. With this added entity box, you can just click on the floor with the entity tool and it will be created at the correct height. Same with copy/paste.
Can't force them. Icons require creative inspiration for me to make something I am satisfied with. Otherwise I make 5 different things and throw them all out because they are lame/ugly/busy/unintuitive. (I also kinda forgot to think about them since I wasn't working with RD)
That cubemap idea is genius.
