As seen in title…I’m using a map that I have several gametypes in(everything but invasion, to be specific) , but I modified it for use with the race gametype, and it’s all going well except for one hitch…nobody initially spawns at the start of the race. Instead they spawn at other various points all over the map…not the entire forge world mind you, but in other initial spawn points inside the map. I was curious…I thought that labeling the initial spawn points as race_spawn or even making a race spawn field around the starting point would fix this, but to no avail. is there something else I need to do, or am not doing…or do I just need to make a separate map with only initial spawn points in the proper places?
I’m not sure if this idea will work, but it might:
Some gametypes have a “NONE” label. Guides that I’ve read say that the “NONE” label will cause objects to be deleted when the map is saved, but some (half-hearted) testing I did shows that this is not the case. If you apply the “NONE” label to an object, then that object will appear in every gametype except the one that owns the NONE label. For example, a Sniper Rifle with the Invasion NONE label will not spawn in Invasion.
So in theory, you would slap Race’s NONE label onto all of those other spawns, and don’t set them to Gametype-Specific. That should make them work in every single gametype except Race.
…
Of course, if I’m wrong, then that will actually end up deleting those spawns when you save the map… So if you decide to try this, test the “NONE” label on a separate copy of the map, and keep a backup in case things don’t work out.
Thank you, that worked beautifully. I went around to every initial spawn & respawn point I didn’t want to use for race and added the NONE option while editing for race, as you suggested, and then tested every game variant with 2 AFK’s, and all the respawn points worked as they were supposed to…race spawns at the start of the race, teams games on proper sides.
Also, regarding the spawns " disappearing" after adding the NONE label…they stayed even in the race edit…just had the NONE label.
