Can't seem to figure out how to correctly place spawn points. Can someone shed some light?

Thanks

ENTPNT ( entry spawn points ) when are first placed always face North. To change its direction just Rotate it using the rotate function, the red line points in the direction you want it to face.

You can only have 9 spawn points

The first ENTPNT place can be set for any direction, this one is usually located in a hanger.
The remaining 8 are set as ( North, Northeast, Northwest, East, West, South, Southwest, Southeast )

Thanks Pokie. My lack of understanding is even more basic though. I place 8 spawn points owned by a specific field yet none of them show up after building the terrain. It must be the way I am naming (or lack thereof) the spawn points.

If multiple entry points are place but not rotated you will only ever see two, one would be "H" and the other would be "N".
So if 8 were placed and not rotated 1 would be "H", another 1 would be "N" and the other 6 would not show up.

As for you not having any showing up?

Did you "Check Terrain" in the "Object Report"
Sometimes you may need to hit "Build" again.

You can send me your .oba file if you want so I could try and help in finding where things are going wrong.

That must be the problem as I didn't adjust the oreintation and did get only the two you mentioned. Will give that a try.

Thanks again.
