* This issue seems to be only on mp_castle. Its affecting TDM and SD as far as we know. A possible solution:
* What's causing it?


think this is an issue when you have a lot of players spwaning at once. Yes, that tends to be when the server is full but not always. For example, if you reduce the spawn delay then a group of people all spawn at once you will be more likely to get this error.
==> g_spawn error isnt related directly to the spawn system, its the number of entities in the map that are being spawned but not deleted (1024 is max for cod4) once it reaches the limit the server crashes.


I believe it is an issue with the amount of spawnpoints on the maps and the spawn logic used. JD said earlier that the spawn system sees spawnpoints as obstructed if an enemy player is too close to the spawn point. This means it can not use that spawnpoint. Add in ten people trying to spwan at once and you get the issue.
