I've got a forged map (on sandbox) where I simply have about 8 spawns on one side of the map and about 8 spawns on the other. What I am trying to do is to get the "(insert team color here)" team to always spawn on one side, and get the other team to always spawn on the other side.

I have one set of spawns set to "Attackers" and the other set set to "Defenders" and this works much of the time, but once in a while (especially at the beginning of the game) we will spawn completely outside the playing field, where there is NO spawn.

Any ideas why this would be happening or how to fix it? Any helpful information on spawns and spawn zones and what not would be appreciated as this is where I'm somewhat confused. Thanks! -Ohlin5

A working spawn system isn't really that crucial to the overall success of a map. Or at least Bungie doesn't think it's that important.

Look at orbital and narrows, for example.

Well is really is in this map I'm building because it's way up in the "sky" on sandbox, and when you randomly start on the "ground" or even the "basement" level of sandbox then there really isn't much you can do unless you happen to have some explosives...any body have any useful ideas?

you have "respawns", but do you have "starting points"?

You have to place the Starting Points for the gametypes you're trying to play. That way, at the beginning of each match/round, you start were you need to start.
