    This is crazy. I took a map I made and decided to make an MLG version. After changing the weapon setup and adding an active camo powerup while carefully monitoring the budget, I saved it. Then $220 budget disappered after my calculations.

    Original map: $3020
    New map: $2730 (should be 2950) $220 missing

    I had my party set to invite only, so nobody else was there. I also repeatedly compared the numbers of objects for both maps. It should be $2950, but it's not.

    Can certain objects duplicate themselves, or do you think I just made a careless mistake somewhere? Can drop spawn weapons steal budget?

    The ghost of ForgeWorld has struck again!

    Seriously though, I've never heard of this happen to anyone else, so I don't think there's anything you can do.
    Maybe just back up and do the MLG compatibility forge again?

    Berb, don't intercept me when I try to be helpful, if you are just gonna say "LOL ur sol" -_-

    Don't want to be that guy, but we have to start with the basics; if you raise the run time max for anything it subtracts from your budget just as if you were to spawn a second one of that item. Did you factor that in/accidentally change it on something and not notice, or have you checked?

    I might just redo it all. It kills me that that I went around and slightly adjusted every piece of the floors to make walking smoother and lined other things up better. I'd hate to do it again, lol... I think it's either the drop spawning weopons, the 10 sec DMRs, or maybe I accidently set a block to weapon or hill settings somewhere. hmm...

    I'm guessing you set the power weapons to have a max amount of 8 on the map? That costs budget too.

    Bingo! I think that's it. At least the map has no framrate issues that I'm aware of, so I think everything is good now. Thanks everyone!

    On the map I am working on, I deleted an object and another was there, exactly in its place.

    I've had pieces disappear on me, taking their precious budget cost with them. It happened to one of my brace larges after I saved the map (as new), left Forge, and loaded it back up. Of course it had to be a damn decorative piece that glitched. $50 man! $50!

    I have lost pieces by changing object spawn... Spawn time :- never ..place at start :- no. easily fixed if you know what your missing by changing max objects and min objects on the missing piece.
    Edit:
    Didn't see was resolved till after posted.
