Prevent Players from getting stuck on each other?

[ServerXeon]

I renamed my thread, how do I stop players from spawning in the beginning of the round into each other?

You need more spawnpoints if that's happening....

How would I go about making more? If we change to cs_office with more than 32 people someone gets stuck in someone else.

You can do it with mani admin, look on the website/forums.

you can edit the map with hammer and place more spawn points

Negative on that. You would first need to decompile the map, and then add more spawn points. After modifying the official map, you would have to save the file as cs_office_64 or something, and nobody would want to play there because nobody wants to download stock maps again. If you would save it as cs_office then your version of the map wouldn't be the same as everybody elses and players would get "different version of map" or something. Also because of the decompiling part the hammer version of the map probably wouldn't be perfect. At least what I've tested several decompilers they fail with areaportals and other rare hint elements.

I recommend using Mani Admin Mod or some SourceMod plugin (I don't know which) to add more spawn points on-the-fly without modifying the map itself. Once I tried to add more spawnpoints to my own map with Mani, but for some reason it didn't work. Also another server admin who had used Mani to set more spawn points to several other maps didn't succeed in it. That's why I would first take a look at what SourceMod plugins have to offer.

Look on the Mani forums, I found a thread with looooooooads of maps with spawnpoints ready to go.

Mani Admin Plugin has a module that will make more spawnpoints without you having to edit a map or something else. You just need to enable it in the mani_server.cfg.

Code:

// *****************************************************************************
// Module : Extra spawnpoints
//
// Desc : Extra spawnpoints can be turned on and off using the following cvar
// *****************************************************************************

// 0 = off, 1 = on (will use spawnpoints.txt file)
mani_spawnpoints_mode 0
