 '''It's important to note that location entities really only need to be placed at the entrance and exit of an area as the player does not have to constantly be touching the location entity. Once the player touches a location entity they will be marked as being in that location until they touch a location entity with a different location name.''' You may also want to cover the spawn points with location entities so that the player immediately starts out in a location. Otherwise, when a player spawns their location is set to NULL until they touch a location entity.

+===.lua file for the map===
 Just like when using anything LUA related, you need a .lua file named the same as your map (ie: '''ff_dev_ctf.bsp has a lua file named ff_dev_ctf.lua''').
 In your maps lua file is where you define the actual location name you gave to the location entity in hammer. This is where you set the team who owns that area and the actual text that is displayed for this particular location. '''You also have to include the base location lua file in your map's lua file when wanting to use any locations.'''
