    Saw a thread posted by @SoCool21 ( https://www.brawl.com/threads/70095/ ) and I thought this would be a great addition to CTF. This would help prevent players from getting killed by archers the second they walk out of spawn, or really any class. Couldn't hurt to add 10 seconds of spawn protection.

    Edit: 5 second spawn protection

    Pointless on some maps, badly needed on others (UNHOLY FAITH V)

    5 seconds should be good

    10 seconds is way too much - I could probably get from my spawn to the other flag room in 10 seconds on Blackout or Beaver Creek, just about.

    A spawn prot would make camping next to spawn with the flag slightly even more unfair as it already is, and tbh I really dont see a need. If archers can snipe u as u walk outside of spawn, go elf (or ninja or archer or engineer), or it's a map issue. /shrug

    spawn prot existed a number of years ago but it was removed cuz of stuff like this

    apologies idk why its 480p

    if u dont wanna watch video then tl;dr is that people walk out of spawn as assassin with spawn prot, assassinate people, respawn since they cant be killed because of spawn prot, and repeat

    it was awful to play against and i would not wanna see spawn prot reintroduced because people abused the mechanic like hell when it was in the game before

    @November It's cause that map sucks as the flag is way too close to spawn. Better map making as well as removing spawn prot as soon as assassinate is activated or pvp is initiated by the person is spawn would make it bearable

    I'm pretty sure this has been brought up before, but a solution might be having the redstone timers not reset in correlation to respawning. Basically, if I used my redstone the second I stepped out of spawn and than instantly respawned, I would still have my redstone timer active from when I used my redstone a couple seconds prior.

    It could be a solution to do it through code, but to be completely honest the only times I find it to actually be an issue is when it's ****ty map design. Spawn shouldn't be in high traffic areas to begin with. These include common places that people camp for objective purposes such as flag rooms or places carriers often go for cover. Yes I do get carriers hang out at spawn, but that's not what we're talking about. In general Spawn shouldn't be somewhere so obvious that some kill thirsty boy like me will go "ye you know what, im just gonna snipe the living **** outta red cause im bored lul"
