AI wont spawn

Hello. I am nearly done my map, but theres one problem... The AI won't spawn. Originally, the AI from one command post wouldn't follow the paths ( not move at all, run in circles, just not where they needed to go) The hight of the map may have had something to do with it. Anyways I deleted the CP, and a second CP from the CIS. Then, I tried making them invisible controlzones ( to spawn the clones/droids ) but that didn't work. I also made LUA changes and what not. However, now my AI wont spawn! I can spawn, but they wont. However, my local team, the jawa's, spawn PERFECTLY NORMAL. I spent about an hour pointlessly trying to get it to work, but no go. Any idea what I did wrong? This is my LUA. :

Hidden/Spoiler:

[code]function ScriptPostLoad()	   

    --This defines the CPs.  These need to happen first

    cp1 = CommandPost:New{name = "cp1"}

    cp2 = CommandPost:New{name = "cp1"}

    cp3 = CommandPost:New{name = "cp3"}

    cp4 = CommandPost:New{name = "cp4"} 

    --This sets up the actual objective.  This needs to happen after cp's are defined

    conquest = ObjectiveConquest:New{teamATT = ATT, teamDEF = DEF, 

                                     textATT = "game.modes.con", 

                                     textDEF = "game.modes.con2",

                                     multiplayerRules = true}

    --This adds the CPs to the objective.  This needs to happen after the objective is set up

    conquest:AddCommandPost(cp1)

    conquest:AddCommandPost(cp2)

    conquest:AddCommandPost(cp3)  

    conquest:AddCommandPost(cp4)  

    conquest:Start()

    EnableSPHeroRules()

 end[/code]

Note I only put the part regarding the CP's. The rest of the LUA shouldn't matter.

Height shouldn't be a problem at all. If it's above the maximum ceiling you can just edit the value in the LUA to raise the ceiling.

Anyway, can you post your error log?

I didn't think I would get an error log for CP related things

The map doen't crash. I have a whole wackload of sev 2 errors. The only sev 3 errors I have are:

Hidden/Spoiler:

[code]ifs_saveop_DoOps     LoadFileList

ifs_saveop_DoOps     LoadFileList

ifs_sideselect_fnEnter(): Map does not support custom era teams

ifs_sideselect_fnEnter(): The award settings file does not exist [/code]

The map works fine. I can see my custom sides, spawn as them, run around, kill the locals. Its just the custom droids/clones won't spawn. These sev 3 errors dont crash my map.

As I said I have a whole wackload of sev 2 errors ( mostly "in vehicle" errors ) but if you want me to post those I can.

What? Why not?

Can you post the rest of your lua? That part looks fine. You mentioned LUA changes; what changes are those?

Its ok I had to re-name one thing. Works great now.

Whenever something's not working right, it's always a good idea to double- or even triple-check your work.
