Ok, my goal is to make a killbox script such that the following conditions are satisfied:

• If the player enters the killbox, the player dies instantaneously.


• If the player entered the killbox, either the player's camera detaches at that spot or the player respawns right away.

This is my current relevant script:

(global short count 0)		;;Stores player value in the player list
(global boolean slipped false)	;;Stores whether player fell in the killbox
(script continuous kill_box
 (if (>= count player_spawn_count) (set count 0))	;;Checks only for players in game
 ;;Teleports the player inside the killbox to a flag
 (if (volume_test_object death (list_get (players) count)) (object_teleport (list_get (players) count) crush))
 ;;Confirms player was teleported
 (if (volume_test_object death (list_get (players) count)) (set slipped true) (set slipped false))
 ;;Teleports a warthog after a player to crush the player
 (if slipped (object_teleport biped_crusher crush) (object_teleport biped_crusher default))
 (set count (+ count 1))
)

Currently, condition 1 is satisfied. I am uncertain if condition 2 can be satisfied.

My question is, "Can the multiplayer cameras be manipulated by a script? If not, is there a global for respawn times? If not, is there an alternate solution?"

I am not sure if my script overcomplicates the killbox; I'll consider alternative suggestions.
