Grrrrrrr, damn I thought I did it right but still not ingame. I want to add a tie fighter to my map BUT! it wont show, I have the key npc_type equal tie-fighter but nothing.....

Change the following:

NPC entity
-------------
targetname - is swoop1, change to spawn_tie1
NPC_Target - is swoop1, change to spawn_tie1
npc_type - is swoop_mp, change to tie-fighter
optional: change count to the number of times you want it to spawn, setting to 1 means first time only; -1 means unlimited re-spawns.

Worldspawn
----------------
spawnscript - is mp/siege_desert, change to mp/siege3_shipspawn

thanks :D

ok tie-fighter works now what about other ships besides that one as that seige3_shipspawn thing only does tie fighter, x-wing, and the shuttle

It will do anything, just because the NPC_type says rancor_vehicle doesn't mean the targetname and NPC_target can't say swoop1 or spawn_tie1. It will spawn anything, all that matters is the NPC_target and targetname fields.

quick question why on earth do the vehicles spawn activated and fly away?

oh and mean they spawn already activated, as in if someone was in it......

This is digging up an old thread, my apologies. However, I don't understand a few things.

1) How do I know what tags to input? What confuses me is that in the example given at http://www2.ravensoft.com/users/mmajernik/misctuts/respawningvehicles.htm) targetname, NPC_target, and NPC_type all are swoop1, but WadeV has target name and npc_target proceded by spawn_

2) In the worldspawn entity, how do I know what spawnscript to use? The example given at http://www2.ravensoft.com/users/mmajernik/misctuts/respawningvehicles.htm) is mp/siege_desert, but WadeV has it as mp/siege3_shipspawn.

3) Icarus-where can I get it, or does it ship with the game? And how do you use it?
