How to make a CAP Stargate Gatespawner?
I am trying to make a gatespawner file correctly on a map, and I keep doing it how the website tells me to, but it doesn't work. Can someone please give me more detailed instructions on how to make a gatespawner for the CAP stargate addon.

Here are the original instructions that I cannot follow correctly:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After you've setup everything go to the Stargate ConVars menu to then click the "Create Gatespawner" button.

Doing this it will create a ".txt" file in the Data folder located in your Garry's Mod installation: "steam\steamapps\common\GarrysMod\garrysmod\data"

Due to Garry's Mods limitation of the function "file.Write" we can not directly save the generated gatespawner as a ".lua" file. We're currently only able to save it as a ".txt" file so you will have to change the extension from ".txt" to ".lua" or the gatespawner will NOT work!

After you have changed the extension of the gatespawner file you'll have to move this ".lua" file to lua/data/gatespawner\_group\_maps (for the group system) or into lua/data/gatespawner_maps (for the galaxy system) Manually!

Do note that this folder might not be there so this folder will also be required to be created by the user to place the ".lua" file into it.

After the file has been placed in the right directory the gatespawner will now work the next time you load the map for which the gatespawner was made for.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you could link me to a youtube video, or at the very least explain it in fuller detail, that would be extremely helpful. Thanks!
