Spawning help
« on: June 14, 2009, 06:14:21 pm »
Sometimes, in my created maps, I randomly respawn. It's really annoying so can anyone help?

Can you post an image of your map with the objects turned on?  Also, are your maps enclosed, or can you walk/fly/fall outside of the map?

If you have an "open" map that allows you to do such things, I'm pretty sure you'll automatically respawn when you get outside the map unless you place a few polys farther away from the actual portion of the map meant to be played.
With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams it is
still a beautiful world.  Strive to be happy.

In my opinion, the best spawn is set in place where you have many routes to pick on, so that can't get away from potential spawnkiller.

I know what you are talking about Warbud. Some of my friends had the same problem like you have right now. You respawn randomly on your maps, right? And you are ON map and not falling off on the sides, right?

Simply try to recompile your maps with Soldat Polyworks and it should work correctly. The problem comes with the spawnsetting. If you hit one you respawn. If you donĀ“t get that solved, try to jump over that certain spots and do your best to make maps with roofs if it is not a matter of recompiling

From my experience, DarkCrusade is right on the money - I've encountered this problem in a few maps (wandering into specific parts of the map cause you to respawn, as if you fell off the map boundaries). Recompiling will most likely fix it.

The worst part about this bug is, it gives your gostek a haircut :(
For signatures, you are allowed only one image in your signature which may not be wider and taller than 300 and 125 pixels, and may not be over 20kB in file size. No BMPs are allowed.

I had this problem. Try shooting the area. If it's invisible blocks, then supposedly you have to find really thin polys, probably just a dot. then delete them! If it comes up in your properties theres a poly, and you cant see it, then delete it!
