Hi! I was wondering on how to set the spawns to allow static spawning on maps. I am currently making a map that needs this. Thanks.
By dynamic, you mean changing? You can set spawn points to spawn in at a certaintime by turning off spawn at start and giving it a respawn time. You can also "despawn" areas by using negative respawn zones set tto spawn at certain times. A more DYI soloution is by having crates spawn in on respawn poiints, rendering them unusable.
I was thinking of more in the lines of... Say a map has a line running through it splitting it into two halves, red and blue. I want players to spawn of their respective sides only.
set the spawnd on one side to each respectove tems's color. just press x and you can set the team that teh ponint belongs to
Or keep them all Neutral and Place a respawn zone set to that team over all the points. If my understanding is correct, that should accomplish the same thing but leave the spawns available for Multiteam/FFA.
Don't do this. Unless you're setting up a special game type its best to always leave all respawn points as neutral and then use respawn zones to group them to teams. Changing all the spawn points to be team specific will apply to all game types and you've suddenly restricted yourself a great deal. Plus it takes frickin' ages to change about 100 spawn points to be team specific.
Lol yeah i used to do that alot. You can also set the Respawn zones to be team specific or asymetrical and sysmetrical. this allows you to set respawn zones for each game type indepently say you want a different spawn set up for Multi flag than you do one flag. you can put in say 8 inital spawns but say you want them to spawn on the top on multi flag and on the bottom in one flag. you put a respawn zone weak on the top and set it to symetrical. i found for the best effect while playing is to set up spawn point for each game type doing the same thing i just talked about with the respawn zones but it will take you a friggn life time to do.
