    So, in a game just now, this happened. Any red player who spawned would immediately fall and get brutally slaughtered by the ~5 or so blue knights waiting below.

    Now, granted, it was with imbalanced teams. It wouldn't be likely to happen otherwise. But still, it's just not very fun to have this happen, ever. Even when you're losing, you should be able to fight back. In this situations, they really couldn't.

    Is this a real problem? Should there be some sort of spawn protection (perhaps just on your original spawn, since forward spawns would be destroyed before then?) Even just for a few seconds, ending when you attack or move.

    You just lost, they won.

    Well,maps are done 2 easy lately...Almoust every round we end up whit 3/4 empty map and no one restart...There should be something under the tent so you would not fall under it after spawn.

    For what it's worth, I was on blue, so I won (I'm the builder in the upper-left sadly watching the slaughter occurring beneath me.)

    If you lose that bad you deserve as many helpings of buttrape as the enemy wants to dish.

    I've been on both sides of this.

    I see a structure that collapses after a single bomb detonation from inside. Take one for the team, mate.

    I want to see you throw a bomb from the inside, mate.

    Nope, it doesn't even do that. Looks like the spawn still captures f-key input.
    I don't like how the current entity/tile targeting system works, anyways. If you're hitting an entity, you have to release mouse key to ever hit a tile.
