    i was forging a new map for the past couple of days with a lot of merging so i had a lot of stuff on no respawn. i was working on a part of the map that required saving and ending and when i finally finished i realized apparently everything that was on no spawn in the beginning was now deleted. sometimes this happens but it will say u have all objects again but u cant spawn anything that u have already spawn all of. for me, u could spawn everything since most of the stuff was deleted. im not exactly sure what happened so please if anyone has any comments please post them.

    For each object you placed, go to the Objects Options and change the Run Time Minimum to the Maximum and then change it back to 0.
    Every object set to Place at Start: No, should appear.
    If this doesn't work, sorry.

    Either what happened was that you accidentally deleted them yourself (which I've done), or you just need to wait 3 minutes for them to appear in your map. If you want them to appear at the start, you need to mess with their spawn times so that either their run minimum is all the way up, or so that they appear on start. It's also possible that the objects are simply hidden through some mistake of interlocking. It's also entirely possible that you've uncovered a new forge glitch (which would entirely suck for you).

    Were you in a party at the time?
    What was the custom map you originally started making this on? (canvas, $glitch, etc.)

    I may be able to help you some more, but you probably wont get your map back.

    I think this has happened to me before. but here are my suggestions on what could have happened. A lot of jerks join your party and delete everything. Make sure you've made your party closed or switched your network to local. If you've been doing alot of saving and quiting than it might be lag. In this case objects don't respawn so give your map a day and see if the objects spawn then. Also if the objects don't spawn and you save over the map than it will ave as there was no object there. I hope this helps you and I'm very sorry if it doesn't.

    Well, in that case it is most likely lag.
    I suggest whenever you Forge to change your Network to Local. This should eliminate this. If you're really concerned, unplug your Ethernet cable or wireless network adapter.
    As Jpec said, Jerks may have ruined it, or just give it some time.

    Try starting a new round and waiting for the objects to appear. Sometimes they won't work properly on the initial round when you first load the map.
