    LoL, w/e it deserves to be frontpaged anyways. And by quoting it, you are also giving the map more exposure. Pwnwaffles.

    I didn't find it very confusing, I kind of already knew this stuff, just not the numbers. After you play Halo for a while, you're able to "guess" the area they're going to spawn next, which really helps in 1v1s. Great posts, they clarified some stuff for me.

    As long as there are respawn areas on the map, I don't think it plays much influence.

    I swear, you are a complete genius. I wouldn't have thought of that myself unless you mentioned it. Thanks for not keeping this to yourself.

    If I could make a crosseyed smiley face I would. I understand it, but implementing it when i am making a map is a whole different story. How long did it take you to figure all this out? : )

    YAY! I got all the puzzles right! :D

    Very informative post, and it gives an interesting insight into the way the spawn system in Halo 3 works.

    This'll help me a lot in constructing specific spawn scenarios in future maps. Thanks a lot!

    There are some things that I'm not completely sure of, and I have left out of the guide until I can test further. So it is, potentially, just a bit more complex than this.

    It's a good theory, complicated... I understand, but I wouldn't really care that much to try it in a map for the sake that it could be completely incorrect (I don't think it is). The game programmers at bungie should release details about how the Halo 3 game engine runs spawn points, because that wouldn't be a theory, that would be a tutorial. Good job though to Devenish, it looks like he put a lot of thought into creating this
