Subject: Forge CTF question

My friend and I are creating a custom One Flag CTF map on forge. There seems to be two problems: Spawn points, and a flag capture point. I'll elaborate.

Spawn Points: Since there's no way to make a spawn point for "attackers" and "defenders," we had to set the spawn points to Red and Blue team. So here's the problem. Red team is set up on the flag's side. When they die, they obviously spawn on their respected side (by the flag). This isn't a problem when Red team is on defense, but when they are on offense, they still spawn on the flag's side (since that's where their spawn is). Same goes from Blue team, just on the other side. How can we change it, so that each team spawns on the correct side while they're attacking/defending?

Flag capture point: We just can't seem to get the flag capture point to work properly. We put a cap point down, but nothing happens when you run the flag through that.

Any help would be appreciated :3


EDIT: We fixed the spawn problem, we still have the flag cap problem :(

Every map needs:

One flag spawn for each team, one flag drop off for each team, and I believe a neutral flag spawn as well. This is regardless of whether you'd ever use certain ones or not.

More importantly? You're probably not labeling them. Look at all the options for the flag spawn/ flag capture point. See the term 'label?' You need to label the flag spawn 'flag spawn' and the flag capture point 'the flag capture point.'

Name's John. I'm a 21-year-old firefighter/EMT from lolhio who doubles as a die-hard Halo fan. I've been enjoying the franchise since 2001. My favorite iteration of Halo would have to be Halo 2 simply because I never got to experience the joy of a full-on Halo: CE LAN.


If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

Oh yeah, and boot Zome.
