info_doddetect is a logical entity available in Day of Defeat: Source.

It establishes the game rules on your map. This entity controls the respawn time for each team, and also tells whether each team is supposed to attack or defend on scenario maps (the voice that yells at the beginning of the round).

Bug:This is supposed to be a preserved entity, but s_PreserveEnts looks for info_dod_detect instead.

Confirm:Is there a way to emulate preserving it? AddOutputing classname isn't safe, as the game specifically checks for entities with the info_doddetect classname when starting each round.
