Spawn protection

[BucKeT]

Im running a GG5 DM with mani admin and for some reason spawn protection is not working. We get killed as soon as we spawn if we are attacked. Below is a copy of my settings. Also I have mp_spawnprotectiontime 2 in the server.cfg. I tried eliminating this to see if there was a conflict but it makes no difference. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks
//=========================================================
// DEATHMATCH RESPAWN DELAY
//=========================================================
// This is a delay after a player dies before they will respawn.
//
// Default value: 2

gg_dm_respawn_delay 2

//=========================================================
// SPAWN PROTECTION
//=========================================================
// Set this to the number of seconds to allow spawn protection, in which they
// will be immune to other players fire but cannot levelup if they kill a
// player.
//
// Options: 0 = Disabled
// <seconds> = Enabled

//=========================================================
// SPAWN PROTECTION COLORS
//=========================================================
// Set player color while under spawn protection.

//=========================================================
// SPAWN PROTECTION "CANCEL-ON-FIRE"
//=========================================================
// If set to 1, when a player shoots when they are protected, the
// unprotection timer will stop and they will instantly become
// unprotected and able to level up.
//
// Note: Uses eventscripts_noisy, this may cause lag.
//
// Options: 0 = Disabled
// 1 = Enabled

gg_spawn_protect_cancelonfire 0

You commented those out...and that cause errors. Change them to 0, but don't comment them out. You are basically removing GunGame variables from GunGame.

Thanks for the advice ManUp, I appreciate it. I will see if that works. Just so others know in case anyone else runs into this issue, what does "Set player color while under spawn protection" mean? Can the top default values be uncommented to change the color of the player as he spawns?

The alpha is the transparency of the player.

The RGB is found kind of like that with web colors:

When you find a color that you like, you choose the value.

// Set player color while under spawn protection.
//
// Default values:
// Red: 255
// Green: 255
// Blue: 255
// Alpha: 150

gg_spawn_protect_red 255
gg_spawn_protect_green 153
gg_spawn_protect_blue 255
gg_spawn_protect_alpha 150

The above settings would turn a player pink!

No, you can not "uncomment" the default values section because they are there strictly as an example. Only these values should be altered:

gg_spawn_protect_red 255
gg_spawn_protect_green 153
gg_spawn_protect_blue 255
gg_spawn_protect_alpha 150
