Format: « %s<%i><%s><%s> » triggered « medic_death » against « %s<%i><%s><%s> » (healing « %d ») (ubercharge « %s »)
– healing is the amount the Medic healed in that life
– ubercharge (1/0) is whether they died with a full charge
– Added « func_respawnflag » trigger entity. It will remove & return the flag if a flag carrier touches it, or if the flag falls into it.
