I created a map, that I've been working on for about 2 months now. But the drop spawns for the weapons are just NOT working right.

I'm sure a lot of you have made MLG maps so that's why I come here for this question.

I have 2 snipers on the map, set to drop spawn from the same height. One spawn correctly at
13:10, 11:10 etc, but the other one spawn 2 minutes after it is picked up. I don't see how it's possible but....it happens every time.

Secondly, the Rockets are set to drop spawn and do so correctly, but on CTF, somehow 2 ROCKETS SPAWN. Although there is only one Rocket Launcher on the map, one spawn in the correct place, and ANOTHER one spawns:mad: on a ledge above it.

Any Ideas guys?

I actually believe MLG just fixed this problem in the playlist. They had two rocket spawns sometimes when you would play 1f on countdown. You might want to check youtube. Hope this helps.

thx guys. I was able to fix both the problems, but a new one arose. The snipers spawn at the correct times, IF they are all used up, and the sniper has been dropped. So if someone is holding the sniper, it doesn't respawn. I think the answer to that is dropping them from higher up?? Idk. I'll figure it out later.

If one of the snipers are dropping only once the holder drops it; I'm pretty sure you need to turn the count up that allows more than one of the snipers on the map from that spawn point. MLG allows up to 4 snipers from a single spawn point on the map at once (Obviously that wont ever happen since the ammo would be used by then).

Ohh hmm...You mean Minimum Count on map at once?

No its the maximum count. Put it to 8 on your snipers and 4 on your rockets. Also try deleting your rockets and replacing them. This has happened to me before and that fixed my problem. After so many saves sometimes the map will duplicate weapons and its very odd. You will probably need to delete the rockets that you didn't place too because they are a sort of "ghost rocket" and will continue to spawn unless you delete them even though they are not actually placed. Strange I know. Good luck.

In regular games, if you are holding a power weapon (like the sniper) and you are waiting for it's respawn time, it won't spawn. This is because there is a limit to the amount of snipers on the map. I will take Cage as an example. With only a maximum on one able to spawn, it can't respawn if you are holding one because that would make two. MLG prevents that problem by setting the maximum snipers to four. This allows that even if you are holding the previous sniper, it can (and will) still respawn on time.
