In my map, I placed quite a few gauss warthogs.

Now, I checked all gametypes, they are in globals, and they don't appear when I compile and play the map.

I can't seem to find any reason for this, so if anyone could help, it would be great.

Hate it when this happens. Not exactly sure why though. You aren't playing Race are you? Cause it won't spawn unless you do some more stuff.

How many Gauss Warthogs? You cannot have more than 8 of the same type of vehicle, or some of them will not spawn in order to keep that limit.

Also, make sure that each Gauss Hog has "Slayer default, CTF default, etc." checked AND "slayer allowed, CTF allowed, etc." It's a common mistake.

There are nine of them, all the game defaults checked, and I am not in race.

Maybe just a messed up tag?

E:

Oh wait, is it because I have nine...well, I have nine spectres and nine ghosts and nine mongooses, but they spawn just fine? :/

You should make a box, outside the play area of the map, for the behind the scenes action to take place, like biped squishing and extra vehicle respawns
Place a trigger volume in this respawn box
Extra vehicles respawn at the 1st vehicle's spawn point, so place the 1st vehicle in the respawn box. This might be tricky. Write down an x,y,z point in the box and type it into the 1st vehicle's position. You could duplicate the 1st vehicle, or insert a new 1st vehicle if you wish
Name the trigger volume "respawnBox"
Name the 1st vehicle "OptimusPrime"

Now, the script:

(global	boolean	iAmTheServer	false)

(script startup	whoAmI
	(if	(=	true	(volume_test_object		respawnBox	OptimusPrime)	)
		(begin
			(set	iAmTheServer	true)
			(object_create_anew_containing	_v)
		)
	)
)

(script continuous respawn_va
	(if	(=	true	(volume_test_object		respawnBox	_va)	)
		(object_create_anew	_va)
	;else
		(sleep	33)	;1 second sleep == less lag
	)
)

Naming the vehicles _va, _vb, etc. makes it easier to script the respawning for each vehicle

(The 1st 8 vehicles of the 6 types in globals don't need to be scripted or named)

Thanks, I'll try this.
