    I posted this on the Waypoint forums and got no response, so I thought I'd come here, to other Forge creators, and see what's up. I also didn't really see a thread to where I post issues so I thought I'd make a thread about it.

    I've been remaking a map from another game on Impact, I just got done actually building the map and I put down Ordnance Drops for the weapons. I started working on Spawns, I have 6 initial spawns down so far and I was going to work on the Respawns for that side of the map. I have reached an impasse, however. With only 6 Initial Spawns and NOTHING else from the 'Spawning' section, it won't let me place any more from the 'Spawning' section after putting a certain number of the objects down.

    I had 6 initial spawns and it stopped me from producing respawn points after I placed 58 of them. I deleted every single one, then tried again. It happened again. I deleted them all, along with the initial spawns, and just placed respawn after respawn and still reached a limit. Did the same with initial spawns, and again, a limit. I can place 250 of each and I can only place a collective 64 of them at once. I really don't know what's going on.

    Some further info, I've used almost all of my materials in everything else.
    - 1 Impact left
    - 0 Building Blocks left
    - 2 Platforms left
    - 10 Decorative left
    - 0 Walls left
    - 5 Inclines left
    - 5 Natural left
    My budget is sitting at a narrow 9,995/10,000 but the objects in spawning, as well as ordnance drops, don't cost anything.
    I'm not reaching the boundaries of the map when I duplicate these things, either.
    I've left the match, reentered multiple times, but it still doesn't work. Dashboarding, restarting my xbox, the problem still insists.
    I went into forge on a blank Impact and it allowed me to place all the initial and respawn points I wanted, as well as other objects in the 'Spawning' section.

    Does anyone know what's going on? I spent quite a deal of time making this map and I don't know if I'd muster enough strength to start anew to get the spawns to stop working, if they'll work for me at all. I hope someone can help, as I didn't get any response from the posts I made on the Waypoint forums.

    Simply put, you've reached the object limit for the map. Each map has a limit to how many total objects you can place, you must have found the limit for Impact. The limit is usually set quite high so that normal forging won't get anywhere near the limit, you must have been putting great care and detail into your map. There unfortunately, without modding, is no way around this limit, so I'm afraid you're going to have to delete some of the objects on your map to allow more to be placed.

    There's a limit for ALL objects as a whole, on top of budget and limit on materials? Damn, I didn't know that. I tried to make the map as detailed and accurate as possible. Guess I'm gonna have to make some changes, then. Thanks for the feedback, settles my heart to know I didn't experience some bug or issue with Forge.

    Yeah the Budget remaining is a kind of guide to this, but due to the differing costs of each object type it's not fully accurate.
