Too many negative coordinates?

Post by MPowell1944 »

I am having problems spawning things into a map b/c of their being too many negative coordinates. For the 3 numbers as coordinates the first must be positive, the second either positive or negative, and the third is usually 0. But I have run into the first number being negative on one side of the map and that has been blocking me from spawning stuff over there. Is there any way around this? Thanks.

This is because the compiler is stupid.

Instead of (-10 -10 -10) you have to type ( -10 -10 -10), that is, with a space between the ( and the -.

Does "compiler" refer to a software or a person?
