Respawning objects
Heya there,
I have followed this tutorial on the developer wiki on how to respawn items.
I have done steps 1-5 and no items spawn for me, although I have followed the tutorial to the letter. I set the timer to ten seconds, but after about a minute..still nothing.
I cannot follow step 6 because the "prop_physics_spawnable" doesn't seem to exist in the list on entities.
What I am trying to do is make a box respawn after it has been destroyed. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Note: I am not looking to be pointed in the direction of a box dropper, I just need it to respawn.

That seems to be related to HL. All you need for P2 is a weighted_cube and a point_template. Set the template to the cube and on the cube set "onfizzled > pointtemplate > ForceSpawn"
To easy. For future reference, decompile valve's maps if in doubt.

I have done that. But the thing is, there is no box there when the map is loaded. I have got the prop_weighted_cube and also the point_template, but the box doesn't show when the map is loaded.

Also there is a "func_instance" that makes an Cube Dropper. You could use that.

I know there is a vmf file that allows you to have a box dropper or multiple box droppers in the level, but had you read the post fully you would've seen I am not looking for that.
Thanks anyway.

Oh ok, I didn't know exactly what you were trying to do. My bad.

Isnt there a "Don't remove template entities" flag or something like that?
"I hear voices. But I ignore them and I just carry on killing."
This is in the instance of the multiple dropper 
, the object, the entity maker and the point entity
