    Im creating a mini-game map that requires one player to spawn in one spot and the rest of the team in another spot. I know that inital spawns mark where players start a game, but say that people are playing my map 6v6 instead of 8v8. What is stopping all 6 guys from spawning at the start next too each other as opposed to 5 spawning together with the 6th alone (which is how it should be).

    I currently have 8 inital spawns for red team, and 8 more for blue team so it can be played by any party size. My question is, is there anyway to ensure that one person ALWAYS spawns at a certain initial spawn point, despite the team/party size.

    Thanks for your time, any help is greatly appreciated

    Happy Forgin'

    This diagram (hastily made as it is) should do the trick:

    The weak zone makes the single spawn inside the highest-priority, so the first Red player to spawn will appear there. All subsequent Red players will spawn on the secondary points.

    Just duplicate this layout for Blue side, and your system should work for teams of any size.

    Or you could simply put the spawn priority on the special spawn to (1) and all of the other spawn's priorities' to (2).

    And how, pray tell, do we do this? If you are referring to Spawn Sequence, I can tell you that this won't do anything (I just tried it).

    The first solution is correct, however.
