    Hey, I'm new to the forums, and am slowly learning more and more about forge. So, after learning the save and end game method of having objects float, I am creating a Super (Spartan) Brothers map on Standoff (Super Smash Bros if you didn't figure that out), by having it hang off the cliffs. Well, so far it is looks good, and the tests for the custom game type to go with it are good too, except for spawning.

    I have 2 spawn points high up in the air over the map, and you spawn at either one, and like in SSB, you fall down into the playing field. And in forge, you spawn at these most of the time, but when it comes to a custom match, you never spawn at them. I then created a spawn by a teleporter, and you don't even spawn at the tele, you spawn in or around the bases, like I did before. I checked, and there were no spawn points, so what's wrong?

    P.S. It is a normal slayer gametype, so no start spawns or anything.

    There are probobly starting points in the base. In normal slayer, there are starting points. just change the gametype. If you have deleted those, then add more than two spawns because if you are playing with more than 2 people the rest of them will spawn in the bases.

    You might also have the problem that the spawns by the SSB are too close to the fighting, which would make you spawn at a spawn point that's not technically there. What forge does s if there are too few spawn points on the map, it implements more into the game so that people don't spawn right next to eachother. To overcome this try placing like 5 spawn points at each spawn point instead of 1.

    Hope that helped.

    Thanks for the help guys. I ended up changing to to VIP, with 1 start and 1 respawn spawn, per "Outfitting Room", and deleted all other spawn points and replaced them with Teleporters, and went through every gametype and deleted all spawns. Now it seems to be working fine.

    Sweet! Just make sure you place the teleporters high enough so that those left alive can't teleporter camp. Send me a PM when it's finished, or a FR if you need help. Norbert220 is my gamertag.
