*sigh* okay there's two ways to do this, i've done it before back when i was making a top down contra clone, it's ridiculously easy.
Method #1: Store the position they died, if you want to protect from falling deaths, you need to keep track of the position they were when they were onground, this is the tricky part. additionally if you generate a nav mesh (which i think you can still do even if you're not building a map for CSS..) you can use the nearestpointonnavmesh to give you a save spot near the point that you saved to place them. Then, after they respawn, move them to desired place, activate spawn protection or something so people don't insta kill them.\ Method #2: easier, because it involves NOT executing code rather than writing new code when respawning... (not initial spawn!) don't call the EntSelectSpawnpoint code! your position will remain unchanged and you will just "spawn" right where you were, asuming you don't move into spectator or anything, otherwise you WILL have to store the position.
