TDM spawnpoints

[Red_Guy]

Im trying to setup a TDM on my server.

what i want to happen is this:

when the TDM starts (or when somebody joins), they are spawned in a 'holding area'  where they go click or touch a brick to choose their team.   Once they choose a team, the player gets spawned in their team area and then play normal TDM from there.

everything works except for the initial spawning.  If a player joins a team with the /jointeam cmd, it works.  if a player walks into my holding area and clicks or touches a team brick, they spawn correctly.  but nobody actually spawns in the holding area (where I do have spawnpoints).

Since my server is also somewhat freebuild theres other spawnpoints scattered about.  some belong to me, some dont.

Now also -- based on Space Guy's instructions, I setup 'setTeamAllied' events on all the spawnpoints i want to use.  for team 1, for team 2 and for team 'none', but the team 'none' spawnpoints dont seem to work.

how can i get them to work w/o having to delete all the other spawnpoints on the map?

Whatever number team "none" is put the number spawn in the room.

Thats the problem... team "none" seems to have no number. and there isnt any TeamNoneSpawnPoint bricks i can use.

theres events provided with the TDM mod for setTeamAllied, and the options for teams are 'player' 'none' and then 1,2,3,4    So I dont think any of the spawnbricks correspond to team 'none'

When you are making a minigame the teams are in a list and the top team is team one then below them the numbers get higher. So you go into the Spacemod brick tab(if you can see it keep clicking tab or download this add on http://forum.returntoblockland.com/dlm/viewFile.php?id=53) now lets say you made the "none" team last of 3 teams, if so you would take out the "Team 3" spawn point in the SpaceMod tab. Then all on that team would spawn there.

you must be looking at a different mod (or a different version of mine).

team 'NONE' is the first in the list not the last, and its not one that I create -- it shows up automaticly whenever I create a new Team deathmatch minigame.  And I cannot delete it.. ive tried.

Like I said before - once a player actually JOINS a tem, everything works great.  So the spawnpoints for team1 and team2 (or Reds and blues) seems to be setup correctly.

so - how get people to spawn in my "lobby" when they join the minigame?

Make a team named something like "Spawn" and put the teams spawn point in the lobby and use SetTeam events.

okay - thats not hard.

but how do i get everyone to start in that team when they join the minigame?

Put it on Auto-Sort mode?
