Creating a new SpawnSphere

by Yost Engineering · in Technical Issues · 10/18/2007 (3:23 pm) · 4 replies

Hello,
Somehow I deleted the spawnsphere in my map and I can't figure out how to create a new one, there is no spawnspere in my world editor creator tree. Is there a simple line that I can put in the console to create a new one?

Look in one of the sample mission files, you should be able to copy and paste
it from there into yours.

1) Open your World Editor
2) Go to World Editor Create
3) In the create tree, navigate to
- Shapes
---- Misc
-------- SpawnSphereMarker

4) Then click on the SpawnSphereMarker to add to world

If you dont see it, then you messed up the script and code somehow and need to undo what ever you did.

If you want your player to spawn from it, you need to alt-click the PlayerSpawns (it's something like that) folder in the tree view in the top right of the Creator interface before creating the sphere. This tells the editor to place it in the PlayerSpawns group, which is where the game.cs function pickSpawnPoint() decides a random marker to drop you in at.

Thanks a lot! I didn't realize it was in the shapes subdirectory in the tree!
