Guns spawning on you when people join in.

[Scouts]

So, alot of people may be aware of the whole invisible gun thing, when someone joins in and spectates you, your guns become invisible.
But on certain days like a HG where guns are given to you after a certain amount of time, additional guns will spawn on you were the person who just joined the server (spectating you). Its kind of hard to explain but pretty much guns drop that were supposed to be given to the player that joins the server mid round, drop on the floor to whoever the player is spectating originally. It has happened a few times during a HG. I don't have the demos but when it happens again I can post evidence.


It isn't really 'game breaking' but it is still a bug. It can give you an extra chance of survival if you have a 'low grade' weapon.

further explanation. The plugin that gives people random weapons will continue to spawn weapons for anyone who joins a team throughout the round. They will spawn in the default spawn location on the map and can sometimes create a pretty nice pile of guns. If you could make it so the plugin stops trying to spawn in guns after the start timer this would fix the issue.

Yeah, pretty much what Magi said.

But I have had weapons spawn ON me, not just in the default spawn location

I'm not sure how this bug is possible but the plugin gives you a random weapon if you are ALIVE and playing in the HG.
The plugin also has a 'late join' feature so anyone who is respawned (either by joining late or admin respawning them) is also given a random weapon/everything they need.
The gun should be given to the player directly so there isn't a way for it to be 'spawned on you' due to spectating.
They also have to be alive on CT or T to receive it.

Yeah i'll need a demo or a way to reproduce to fully be able to pinpoint down the cause.

All good, next time it happens, ill get the ticks.
