    Description: When a flag is dropped in a CTF game into a pit(off-map pit). the flags do not respawn instantly, the flag object will still exist below the map out of reach. After cetrain time they respawn like they would for when they are dropped inside the map.

    Im not sure when this creeped into to kag. In alpha it was never present, maybe it was in the alpha to beta engine change. i reckon this bug is forgotten since it only applied for maps with pits that go through the bottom of the map.

    Steps to reproduce:
    1. Start any CTF match
    2. Have a pit that that reached the bottom of the map, allowing stuff to fall off-map.
    3. Drop a flag in it
    4. observe that there is no instand respawn of the flag.

    Does it really need to be fixed? I don't see why you can't wait 15 seconds (or how long it takes to respawn).

    Just don't jump in pits, take it slowly.

    Right, if the other team makes the mistake of losing your flag in a pit, I think the extra time to push and rebuild the flag enclosure is nice. Having the flag respawn instantly allows the other team to immediately take it again as long as they have people in the vicinity, making a horrible mistake not so bad, when in my opinion it should be.

    not a bug, pretty sure it's intended to work this way.
