tl;dr version: need help figuring out how to spawn vehicles correctly on camtrackarena (or its variants)
----------
I know that getting a definitive answer to this is a shot in the dark, but here goes:
I've been trying to put together a custom map pack for people to download for use on my server and one of the maps I want to use is 'camtrackarena'. Only problem is, I can't get the vehicles to spawn correctly. I was wondering if it was something if anyone (maybe someone from 'back in the day' who was around when the map came out) had any luck with it or knew of the proper way to spawn the vehicles.
First of all, I've tried all three versions of the map I've found so far (camtrackarena, camtrack-arena-fx, and camtrack-arena-race) and they all seem to have the same vehicle spawning problem. When the default 'CTF' gametype is loaded, the map spawns with both types of hogs, ghosts, tanks (and in the case of the 'fx' version , shees). The gametypes I am using are CTF gametypes with different vehicle counts that I know load correctly on the stock halo maps (don't recall what custom maps I've tried them on). Whenever I try one of those only the red team seems to get the proper amount+type of vehicles spawned.
I figured that the map may rely on some kind of 'vehicle spawning' script (kind of like the z team h2 coagulation/sanctuary maps do) , so I tried different settings (setting red team's vehicles and leaving blue's at 'default' or 'none' ) and this seemed to produce messed up vehicle sets that sometimes.
So yeah, if anyone has any ideas or if this is already a known issue let me know. I did a google search beforehand to see if I could find anything but came up with nothing. Thanks again.
