Use source instead of thePlayer in the "onPlayerDamage" event:

local state = getElementData(source,"spawn_state") 

Note: cancelling onPlayerDamage event server-side won't cancel the damage, use onClientPlayerDamage on client side.

And who is the player in the timer function? You should make a new function for setting "spawn_state" to "finish" and add a new line to the "onPlayerSpawn" event:

setTimer(someFuntion , 50000 , 1, source )
