Selective Spawning

Let players be able to choose the spawn they would like to spawn in. I would suggest letting the player select a flag, which would cause them to spawn in one of the spawners linked to the flag.


Why?
-Okay, let's say I have a linear map that has 5 points: A, B, C, D, and E. My team has A, B, C, and D captured, and we need to capture E to win. With the current random spawns, I could spawn at any point, regardless of what I want. If we're making a push at E, why would I want to take the chance that I MIGHT spawn on A and be useless for the rest of the round? This is why I'm suggesting selective spawning. I suggest a GUI when you die (in a Teams round) that lets you select a flag to spawn at.

Yeah, I know Conquest doesn't exist anymore, but this could be useful for Team Deathmatch on big maps, so you get to choose to spawn in the fray (to play extremely offensively), or to spawn far away from it (to pick off bad guys from far away).

Random spawns could be a settable option. I'll make some pictures in a bit.


EDIT: Here's a picture. Please excuse the terrible sprites and scaling. Oh, and definitely extend the class select screen so that it shows all 9 items.

Points not owned by your team will be X'ed out.
If possible, could there be a map? Maybe the author of the map can create an image to put there?
The class select screen could be on the left side of the spawn menu instead of when selecting teams.
Maybe if there's enough room, the team select can be added to the spawn screen? If not, maybe just a "Team Select" button.

Oh, and ignore my GUI on the bottom. That's TukMC, not what I want added to Flan's Mod.
