ok so 20 people on our current pedestal map doesnt work so good. I know gojinn just did everyone a huge favor fixing the weapon bugs, but there is one health and one suitcharger per side.
That = sux. So i took some ideas from machines remix of ped and added my own stuff. There are now 6 chargers per side, shottie, ar2, alyxgun, crossbow, and tripmines. I replaced the crappy physics barrels with radiators. Added a combine ball spawner in the middle room, which you can lock the orb whores in so they kill themselves!!!  And lastly I added sawblades. But before you go 'oh nos, sawblades on ped!!! ppl will be surfing across the map, and capping so fst.'  I modified the sawblades so it will be super obvious if anyone tries to exploit them. The rest is up to you dudes to crack down on exploiting! All in all its still the same old ped. The stuff I wanted to do, like having weapons rain down from the sky, is all frigged up in this new sdk and I have tried for a week to spawn more than one magnum in the map! oh well, if the sdk gets fixed I will re-compile the map. Thanks and enjoy!

i don't have an issue having multiple mags in a level.  make sure that they aren't in the texture below them.  i usually set weapons about 1 or 2 units above the ground that way there isn't an issue.  if they are above the ground texture, check your compile log to see why they are spawning.  also look to see where the origin of your map is in HAMMER (the dead center 0,0,0).  then load up the map and see if your weapon is spawning there.  some maps do this sometimes and its really annoying.  i haven't quite found a fix for this yet and i posted this problem on the sdk forums and nobody knew how to fix it.

I was trying to spawn the weapons on a timer, so that they would only be available say after ten minutes.

well i bet something is wrong with the timer entities.  you probably have them coded right, but sometimes things get messed up when you compile your map.
