Yeah, so I'm new to Forge. In Halo 3 all I did was make custom games. Forging was too complicated. So I decided to give it a go and made a level I've always wanted; the perfect, tiny map for 2-4 players, made for splitscreen or killing time for a friend or two. It's a nice map, but there's one problem - Spawns are alright, but respawns don't work well. At all. I put down the respawn zone but when someone playing dies, they respawn in one of the big ol' features of Forge World, like the Canyon, or the Colosseum, or whatever. Halp? Also, if anyone wants to playtest my map (for any reason) it will be done tomorrow or Friday. Just leave your gamertag. Thanks!
Are you using standard respawns points along with the spawn area? Without spawn points spawn areas are useless
You have to put down individual spawn points. the respawn those basically just group all the respawn points within it together. so if a player recently dies in a respawn zone or if an enemy is in one, you are less likely to spawn on any respawn point in that zone. if a teammate is inside a respawn zone, it makes you more likely to spawn at any point in that zone. its more complicated than just that, but that gives you a basic idea of what a respawn zone does.
Oh ho ho ho, I get it. I thought it was just an area you would randomly spawn in. Thanks for the tip!
