I have a local team set up, and it appears to work, accept that I have 5 path nodes and 5 units specified to spawn in my LUA, yet only 1 unit is on the field at one time. Here are the defining LUA lines:

-------------------------------------------
ReadDataFile("dc:SIDE\\alc.lvl",
"alc_inf_geonosian")
-------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------
SetTeamName (4, "Aliens")
AddUnitClass (4, "alc_inf_geonosian", 5,5)
SetUnitCount (4, 5)
AddAIGoal(4, "Deathmatch", 100)
SetTeamAsEnemy(ATT,4)
SetTeamAsEnemy(4,ATT)
SetTeamAsEnemy(DEF,4)
SetTeamAsEnemy(4,DEF)
-------------------------------------------

anyone notice any inconsistencies?

EDIT: Well, I solved it all by myself. What I did was swap it with local team 3 (which I only wanted one of anyway) so that it was team 3 and the other one was team 4, and changed this:
AddUnitClass (3, "alc_inf_geonosian", 5,5)
to this:
AddUnitClass (3, "alc_inf_geonosian", 1,5)

I don't see anything, but you might want to raise the reinforcement count. Otherwise they won't last long.

They're a local team so they're unlimited. I've tryed lots of things but nothing works, any ideas anyone? this local team is vital to my map, which is very near release.

when you launch the map are yo u setting certain modes to have a different number than the default bots?

For now the map is planned on being Clone Wars Conquest only, and no, I don't believe so. I do change it from 16 to 32 once in a while if that's what you mean.

yes it is, because if you lowered it to say 5, then only one local would no be surprising.

Well... This wouldn't be the problem since I've only moved the counter up, and not down (you'd think) And now that I think about it, this has happened before on the same map with another local team (which has been since removed, it didn't fit)
