I've encountered this a couple times. Once for this one player, it kept happenning to just him and once for myself. I have the amx_super plugin installed on server so I just use: amx_revive <nick> and it works.
Not sure how often this is happenning but something like this written into GG that says if player "stuck, not respawning, etc" after "X" secs or player has to type /revive or something, might help. Here's the revive code from amx_super:
--------------------------------
//Admin Revive by SniperBeamer
//============================================= ============================================= ================
public admin_revive(id,level,cid)
{
if (!cmd_access(id,level,cid,2))
return PLUGIN_HANDLED
new arg[32]
read_argv(1,arg,31)
if (arg[0]=='@')
{
new plist[32],pnum
get_players(plist,pnum,"e",arg[1])
if (pnum==0)
{
console_print(id,"[AMXX] No clients in such team")
return PLUGIN_HANDLED
}
for (new i=0; i<pnum; i++)
{
if (!(get_user_flags(plist[i])&ADMIN_IMMUNITY))
{
new ids[3]
num_to_str(plist[i],ids,2)
spawn(plist[i])
set_task(0.1,"revivePl",0,ids,2)
}
}
console_print(id,"[AMXX] Revived the %ss",arg[1])
if (get_cvar_num("amx_revivemsg"))
{
if (equali(arg[1],"CT")) set_hudmessage(0,20,220,-1.0,0.30,0,6.0,6.0,0.5,0.15,1)
else set_hudmessage(220,20,0,-1.0,0.30,0,6.0,6.0,0.5,0.15,1)
show_hudmessage(0,"The %ss have been revived!",arg[1])
}
}
else
{
new pName[32],player = cmd_target(id,arg,3)
if (!player) return PLUGIN_HANDLED
new ids[3]
num_to_str(player,ids,2)
spawn(player)
set_task(0.1,"revivePl",0,ids,2)
get_user_name(player,pName,31)
console_print(id,"[AMXX] Revived %s",pName)
if (get_cvar_num("amx_revivemsg"))
{
set_hudmessage(0,200,0,-1.0,0.30,0,6.0,6.0,0.5,0.15,1)
show_hudmessage(0,"%s has been revived!",pName)
}
}
return PLUGIN_HANDLED
}
