How to make vehicles respawn.

Post by -_- »

My map isn't respawning any of the vehicles. And they are all in a control Region. Help!

I believe there's a field containing the terms "spawn" or "delay" in your vehicle spawn entity's properties...

No, you aren;t placing vehicle right!! You need some tutorials!! Get my Adding Vehicles to Maps for SWBF Tutorial...you need it!!

You add vehicles by vehicle spawn points, not by placing the actual vehicle in game.

In the LUA or during the editor
In the mapping tool, ZeroEditor...
For those interested, the entity to place vehicles must be created by selecting the file named "com_item_vehicle_spawn.odf", in your map's ODF folder...

You said "rebs" and "ATTE" ?! What teams are attacking and defending on your map ?

republic attacking and CIS defending. Really messed up the editor. When i put REPatk, it spawned an MAF instead of a gunship...

It depends what team controls the region where your vehicle spawn's entity is located... In your case, C.I.S. controls it... Republic must take it to spawn its own vehicles. Otherwise, M.A.F. will continue to appear...
Do not forget to place your vehicle's label in the field named : "REPdef". (Or something like that...)
