maybe the reason they dont spawn is because your map didnt compile. when it doesnt compile, nothing works. did you check the log for a compile error?

if THIS is what you put in your script, assuming you did NOT have comments in front, ( // ), take a look at what your asking.
your asking for a thread in global/ai.scr
the name of the thread is " 3".
what you WANT is "thread global/ai.scr::spawn 3"

well no still no diff.
it is wierd cause it works on my first level. but when i try it on my second level it doesn't work?
all my spawn controls work ( u know the system spawns )
but the trigger spawnswhere u can get like 5 spawns appearing don't work it is odd.
i try to copy it on a new level ((like a little room jus testing if the spawns work))) and it works fine. but when i put it on my level it doesn't??
what is the deal here?
/////////////////////////////////////////////
charge1:
//thread global/ai.scr:: 3
end
/////////////////////////////////////////////
this is wat i put on my script for my first level ((AND IT WORKED))
it is at the bottom of my script.
now i done the same thing and it doesn't work??
HMMMMMMMMMMM????

The // is makes the line a comment, so it can't possibly do anything as it will never be run. Must be something thats missing, or that the // shouldn't be there.

no... it works with // on my first level fine.
but it doesn't on the second level even when i tryed it without the // it doesn't work. i dunno wat it is but that kind of spawn aint working for my second level it is SOOO odd

ok barney your not getting all the info right...
for one thing, if that line is EXACTLY what you have in your first script, then that is NOT what is triggering the spawn because:
1. it is COMMENTED
2. " 3" is not a valid thread (see my post)
you either have a trigger in your map that triggers the spawn, or you have somewhere else in your script that triggers it.
heres some things i ask you to do.
1. post (or pm if you dont wanna give away anything) your WHOLE lvl 1 script.
2. #1 but with your lvl 2 script
3. #2 but with your new level (test) script.
