0000953: Ability to choose a key to respawn with compat_instantrespawn, instead of any key
I read on the wiki that compat_instantrespawn only responds to the "USE" key to respawn the player, it's actually use and fire -- would it be difficult to make it possible for the player to change that to just use? I've accidentally triggered a respawn quite a few times.

Also, I wonder why alt fire doesn't trigger it as well...
I'm not sure if this was originally a bug or not, because the wiki'http://wiki.skulltag.net/DMFlags [^]' said compat_instantrespawn only responds to use. I can see why people would like fire as an option, so I guess it should stay in as an option at least.
No tags attached.

I said "any key" in the title, that should be "use" and "fire", when I first started writing this I thought it was any key.

A +respawn command would be great.

Making the default configuration sane could be tricky.

I'm not sure what to think about this one. IMO compat_instantrespawn should behave like regular respawning as far as keys go...

I wasn't aware of cl_respawnonfire when I originally reported this

I highly recommend adding cl_respawnonfire to player setup or something similar

Closing since cl_respawnonfire exists.
