"Spawn Location" setting doesnt work when set on "current location"?

I am trying to get the player to respawn on the spot of their death, when killed, if they have collected an X amount of a resource. Due to the nature of the game, i need to have them respawn on the spot (that they died), not the spawnpads, but the setting set to both Island Settings + Team Settings doesnt seem to work. What am I missing?
