Need help with Spawn Rooms

[BaconCat]

Ok, so I am having trouble getting these spawn rooms to work right with a plugin.

The SM Plugin in question is Smarter Spawns and it works fine... on Valve Maps.

When I try it on my custom trade map however, it doesn't work. I have set the func_respawnroom entity to cover the entirety of the spawn room, and have set the visualisers to associate with the respawnroom entity, but it doesn't work.

Is there more to creating a spawn room that I am missing? Because it works perfectly on Valve maps and even other custom trade maps, so what am I missing here?

Well players actually spawn at info_player_teamspawns, so you need a few (16 per spawnroom) of those. As for the plugin, I'm not sure if you actually need it - a good spawnroom by itself protects the people who spawn inside and prevents them from spamming outside.

I know about the info_player_teamspawns, I have them too.

The plugin is there because this is a trade server map, and unless I add really REALLY garish glass walls, people will just keep sniping from inside spawn to outside.

Any ideas why the plugin would work on Valve maps but not my map? I even tried copypasting a func_respawn and visualiser from one of the valve examples source sdk gives, but that didn't work either, so I think I have done something wrong here.

How does it actually not work though? And what exactly is wrong with people dying on a trade server?

That's beside the point. I just want to get this plugin working. As it stands, the plugin works on Valve maps and even other trade maps, but not MY trade map. I want to figure out WHY when I have seemingly set up the fun_respawnroom and visualisers correctly.

Do you spawn rooms work normally without the plugin? As in you can spawn in them, change positions, etc?

Yes, the spawns work perfectly. It's just that this plugin doesn't seem to work on my custom map but does work on other maps. As such, I am assuming that I have done something wrong, but I can't figure out what since I have done exactly the same things they did for their spawns.

Contact the plugin author.

I have. Like I said, the plugin works fine on every single map but mine.

You said it works in official maps. Does it work on other custom maps? It may be hard coded to only recognize official maps. Therefore, contact the plugin author.
