Broken entity in the l4d2 beta?
I placed my map in the L4D2 beta folder for a quick test. Normally in my survival map the survivors start with a melee (katana) instead of dual pistol, however in the L4D2 beta the entity game_player_equip seems to be broken (it's not giving the survivors a melee).

I use a trigger_once (with Output: OnStartTouch, target: game_player_equip, Use) and when the survivors stand inside the trigger_once they should receive a katana from the game_player_equip entity (game_player_equip using SmartEdit, Key/Property Name = katana, Value = 1, Flags = Use Only checked). This setup worked fine in the previous versions of the game, but it's not working in the L4D2 beta.

Trigger_once is a bit buggy in the old version as well, it doesn't reset until you reload the level completely. Might be a good idea to always use trigger_multiple.

With a trigger_multiple it would give them a melee every time they ran into it, unless you spawn them off the map and teleport them to the starting location. The problem with Survival is you can't change the default weapons, as the survivors are given the survival weapons.

Where can I get the map? I'll debug it and see what's different.

It's a trigger_once attached to game_player_equip that gives the players a weapon. They spawn within the trigger_once.
