Spawn Points

From MovieBattles II Wiki

Every Movie Battles map and in fact all other maps too need to have spawn points, these are simply points where the players will spawn when a round starts, it is possible to "move" these points during a round, for this, see Dynamic Spawns.

Anyway, the placement of spawn points is maybe one of the most important things in a map layout, all spawn points should be close to each other to prevent that people have different chances dependently of where they spawn.

Placing The Spawn Points

To place a spawn point, just place a info_player_siegeteam1 for rebels or info_player_siegeteam2 for imperials where you want the characters to spawn when a round begins, just remember that there are certain criteria which have to be fulfilled. Most important is the number of spawns as the server will crash o players will crush each other if there ain't enough spawn points.

There can be a maximum of 32 players on each server, but dekas need two spawn points to spawn, so if all players on a full 32-slot server would go imperial and deka 64 spawn points are needed. There are no dekas for rebels so here 32 spawn points are enough.

The distance between the points is also important, especially for the imperials because the deka needs room to spawn. If it cant, the server will crash.
