K so far I know this...

Its done with a pheonix, In the vehicles output when it dies it , or is abbandoned, it sends its message to the pheonix of reset.
The pheonix has values for respawn time and hey presto your vehicle respawns when the timer is up.

Now the fun part... the problems!!

When I put down the pheonix and go to my vehicles output for ondeath I select the pheonix but instead of reset Im given about 10 other options!

I know this is very confusing, but a quick guide on how to make vehicles respawn would be greatly appreciated as iv asked numerous people in the IRC channel(which you should all be in http://ubbxforums.ubi.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif) and only one knew really how to do it but Went before he could explain it fully!

First you make a phoenix with something like 15 second respawn

Then choose you vehicle and g down to the On OnDeath Event, in the input/output window and press pick new http://www.coolart.dk/sandbox/vehicle_respawn/2.jpg
Then choose the phoenix

And you do the same thing with several vehicles, and several vehicles can connect to 1 phoenix http://www.coolart.dk/sandbox/vehicle_respawn/4.jpg

K after seeing that I knew I was doing something wron and I figured out that I was taking the pheonic from the simple entitys>editor section instead of entitys>multiplayer section

thanks for the guide tho but I could have figured it if I knew where to get the right pheonix but great guide

I'm doing that, but it isn't working. I've tried respawn at 0, AND at 15, and at 30. Neither work. I also tried setting "OnAbandon" so that when the vehicle is abandoned it will reset, but that also does nothing.

it only works ingame and not if you just type /map mapname ...you have to play it as a "real" map http://ubbxforums.ubi.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

Yea I created a server and me and 3 other guys played the map. They never respawned. I also tinkered with it and created a server by myself trying to make it work. Still doesn't :-|

Following the exact procedure in the manual works for me, but only if I open the full game and play as a multiplayer map.

Awesome Tut! Thankyou! But the problem I am having is, ... lol... I can't find where the phoenix is listed to insert it? is it in entities?

In other words, when I select the vehicle, then I/O events, on death, there is no choice for the phoenix under it like in your screenshot.

Anyone have any ideas on this issue? I have no option to select the Phoenix.
