spawning

Post by ducatiwannabe »

I know you know how trepan, but I was wondering if somebody could tell me how, or do it for me by making a spawn in only 1 area. Like in a half of the map or something, for my newest map "The Magic Mirror" I want you to spawn by the mirror, and even if somebody has shockwave they can't cover the area by far.

Could somebody help? (By the way check out map in the Servers:Maps part of the forum, and the mirror is on the X+ side of the map)

the thing you want is what is called spawn zones. They are not in 1.10.x if I recall.. they will be in 1.12 ( they are in the 1.11.x, versions now ).

They let you define an area where tanks can spawn.

ok great! So I can set only one spot where you spawn? or I could set a spot that would spawn most of the time?

it's a zone, aka an area, you set one, or more then one, what ever size you want.

Get a beta and try it. The best way to learn is by doing. Trial and error.
