spawn on map - not on clipboard
« on: March 02, 2010, 02:43:21 PM »
Trinity map:



The cursor is pointing to what should be the SE spawn on the clipboard.

SE spawn is not selectable.  The E spawn puts you NE of 140. 

Tried to take a PT Boat to save 140 but ended up closer to the bish airfield.

Since airfields do not have a default hanger (H) boat entry spawn point, the first boat entry added to that field gets assigned to the H spawn button.  In the above case, the first boat spawn from A145 is going to V140 (cursor in image) and is assigned to the H-button.

Map makers should put the initial boat spawn next to the airfield or vehicle base to serve as the H spawn so it is easier for the community to figure out which button goes with a boat spawn point.
