    So, I'm having this problem. I have my map set up for Infection as well as other team games, and Race as well as other FFA games. So, when I play Infection/Race, I keep spawning on the, say, Juggernaut/CTF Initial Spawns, rather than the ones I have set to Infection, Gametype Specific/Race, Gametype Specific. Help?

    I think the gametype-specific option only works if the object is labeled.

    Different tags appear depending on the gametype you're in. Make sure that you're in the appropriate gametype while editing tags. Other than that, I'm not the best person to ask.

    I'm either gonna need to get rid of race or make a specific initial spawns for EVERY gametype. I'll work on that tomarrow, I suppose.

    I've had this problem too... my mongoose kept spawning on my FFA initial spawns even though they weren't labeled RACE_SPAWN. I ended up just not supporting race, but a fix I think might work is to make a gametype-specific hard respawn zone over just your race spawns.

    Yeah I reckon, my mongoose kept spawning on the invasion spawns in tiny, indoor map that is too close quarters for proper race use...

    Lol why do you want race and infection on the same?

    I want it to support everything. :) I'm just gonna take out Race and Infection. The other option is too much work. No matter how awesome race is on this map... ;)

    Make the gametype label "none" and gametype specific true in race so it will not show up in race. proof
    Only one initial spawn point is necessary and everyone else will spawn at nearby respawn points. I don't feel like finding the link because I know this is true. Using this it won't be too difficult to set up different initial spawns for different gametypes.

    I knew there was some kind of thing like that, but I needed to test it, and infection and race aren't important at all on this particular map, so I took them out. Thanks for the help though. It will most definitely be appreciated for future reference. :)

    I had to make specific initial spawn points for race. But also I did that because I wanted them lined up for racing..
