Right...I want to make one team spawn on one side of the map and the other team to spawn on the other side of the map ? get my idea ?
Is this possible in TDM ?

Cause I right clicked on a playerstart and found "Team number" so, I put a bunch on Team 1 and a bunch on Team 2. But when I play it, the bots just spawn anywhere! its just like the team number has done nothing...any help ?

I'm not sure it is possible without a mutator. I think the spawn-algorithm for (T)DM disregards the team number. Try a TDM game with a CTF map and find out.

But why would you want to? It would make for awefull spawn rape matches, because you would know where the other team players spawn (just in case you didn't think of this).

you see...ive made a 2fort map :) all I was wondering if its possible to make 2 teams spawn in thier own room.

So this isnt possible with TDM ? DAMN!!!

Oh, an idea!...what if I make it a CTF game but dont put a flag in it, will they spawn in thier own rooms then !?

Right click the PlayerStart, go to PlayerStart Properties/PlayerStart, and change the TeamNumber field. red=0 and blue=1

:D

Won't work with TDM...

As phennim was saying, there is a mutator out there for TDM team spawning. (haven't tried it though).

I tried that in UT before, it works until an enemy dies near your teams spawn points, then he will spawn there. Basically the first spawn they would start in the right place. If thats all you need, then do what fecal marmaset said, red=0, blue=1.

I was just about to make a new thread when i saw this one.

I can see where this is heading but ill ask anyway :)

Is there a way to have Bots start in one room and Live players on another?

So what did you end up doing simm0nz?

Did making the playerstarts in a CTF game work?

Howd that go?

Thanks

Geez....this thread is older than a pregnancy. :eek:

Anyway....i'm also working on a 2fort map. The team playerstarts work fine with CTF.....and probably will work for BR.

However they are "hosed" for TDM.

:D
