Team 1 main flag: entry 64
Team 2 main flag: entry 65

Additional team 1 flags: spr_headquarters_flag_red*
Additional team 2 flags: spr_headquarters_flag_blue*

Neutral flags: spr_headquarters_flag_grey*

*Not sure I got the names entirely correct, and I might have messed up which one is team one and team two... erm, as long as you don't use the "code_only" things you should be fine.

Finally, place all entry points from 0-63 around the flags (so that all flags has at least one entry point next to them) including the main flags. People will automatically spawn on entry points close to their selected flag - entry_no doesn't matter as long as it's between 0 and 63.

This was from Beaver, back in MM. I'm sure you can use it.

I'm making a naval map using the "Arabian Harbour (Night)"-map which doesn't allow artillery.
Is there any way to change this so that I can spawn as an artillerist?

How do I make people spawn at all the entry points on battle instead of them just spawning in entry 0 or entry 32
a port will save a mans life, a rifle will only keep it safe

I'm having some issues with entry points (again...).

One one side, I have entry points 0-31, and on the other side, I have entry points 32-63. When testing it, however, it is not rare that you spawn on the side that should be the spawn of the opposite team.

Any tips?

Which game mode you talk about? Testing in editing mode doesn't properly work, so if you did, screw you! ;)
In duel, tdm or dm it seems, that the entry points are not really the same as you placed but near them.
You looked in the prop list if you did'nt forget a single or some entry points (happens if you rename entry point 1 to 0 and forgot to place number 1 again)?

How do I add those invisible barriers? The ones which make it so people are blocked from climbing up a really steep cliff?

It's called mm_barrier or something like that.

Yeah mm_barrier. But be sure NOT to choose the mm_no_col_barrier (or something like that). They don't block people. Actually I don't know what they block! :o

Hello

Basically, I am testing out the spawnpoints in one of my maps. I am using the bots to do this so I am not sure if it's the bots that are the problem or is it the actual spawnpoints.

In a siege mode, when I spawn 100 bots for each team. The attacking bots always somehow spawn at the numbers 27,26, 25, 16. Could anyone explain this to me? Isn't the defending supposted to be 0-31 or is it just the bots being weird?

Thanks in advance,
Kind regards ZeroSkilled.

you have to place each team spawns as one group. Maybe you placed somewhere all around the defenders the attacker spawns?
