Here is a collection of working forward spawn example map files and scripts:

Initially Allies controlled: http://www.planetquake.com/simland/ldr1_1/samplemap07a.htm
Initially Axis controlled: http://www.planetquake.com/simland/ldr1_1/samplemap07b.htm

Umm there is a typo in my script. The initial value for the forwardspawn1_flag routine is wrong. It should be this:


   spawn 
   { 
      accum 0 set 0         // Who owns flag: 0-Axis, 1-Allied 
   }

Sounds like the problem you are having is to do with the initial state of the spawn points. If the spawnpoints are not active the autospawn function will not work. All the entities have to be setup correctly otherwise the script will be out of sync. Re-check the spawnflag option on all your spawnpoints, Axis need to be “start active, invul”. Allied need to be “invul” This is assuming you want the Axis spawning there first.

fixed.
it was that i had start active checked on the back axis spawns.

Thanks Sock
thought I would never figure that out
