Using the mod itself with all features turned off will still make the player download it if downloading is enabled on the client's side.

I have a simple (VERY simple) means of doing it. Take a look:

Code:

spawnProtection()

{

self endon("killed");

self endon("spanwed");

self endon("disconnect");

//... any other triggers necessary

self.spawnprotect=true;
 

duration=getCvarFloat("sv_spawn_protection_time");

wait duration;

self.spawnprotect=undefined;

}

Save that as _spawn.gsc (in the SAME directory as _teams.gsc, which is
pakuo04.pk3).

now, edit _teams.gsc.. Here are the instructions when the file is open (just use wordpad):
Search for "Callback_PlayerDamage", or just find it yourself :P
Right inside that function (or directly below the {) at the very top, put in the following code

Code:

if (isdefined(self.spawnprotect)) return;

Now, add the following code to the BOTTOM of your spawnPlayer() function (within _teams.gsc):

Code:

self thread maps\MP\gametypes\_spawn::spawnProtection();

Now, get yourself a config file. You'll probably want to use config.cfg. Add set sv_spawn_protection_time "x" to it, x being the time (in seconds) you would like your spawners to be protected.

You're now ready! Good luck. Also please note, this requires absolutely no downloading.
