    This is my first time making one and I figured it wouldn't be difficult.... and it really isn't. Place kill balls, place banshees in kill balls with respawn time 1 = shredder.

    But I want to use other vehicles in it besides banshees for bigger debris. I've tried falcons and scorpions and both do not work for me. Rather they don't work the same way and I don't know what the right way for them is. I spawn them in with the respawn time at 1 but after I let the vehicle ago to do it's thing, it doesn't respawn right away after the initial dismantling. It seems to wait a minute or so and then respawns on the ground below as opposed to in the kill ball. What's the solution to this and are banshees the only vehicle that it is simple for?

    It may not be respawning because the game waits for the wreckage to disappear before allowing it to do so, but I don't know for sure.

    The reason it spawns on the ground is because a vehicle respawns wherever it makes initial contact with a solid surface. In your case, it is the ground. The solution to this problem is to place large block piece wherever you want the vehicle to spawn and place the vehicle on top of it. Once the vehicle has completely stopped moving, delete the block and the vehicle should be left floating in the sky. That is where it will spawn from now on unless picked up by the moniter.

    Well the banshee wreckage keeps piling up while more of them respawn so I don't think it's that.

    Idk put the vehicles on something small like a colum or railing in the kill balls so that when they explode they'd fall off onto the ground

    Meh, check your spawn timers again. Maybe that's the problem.

    It may be a glitch with the banshee only as although it does work with other vehicles it's easiest to make it with just banshees.

    The comment about placing the vehicles on railings is correct, and as long as the spawn time is set to 1 and the vehicle is away from its spawn point it should work. Also, try setting the run-time minimum to the same as the number of that type of vehicle on the map.

    Ok the placing it on a platform and then taking away the platform worked. Thanks! :D
