== Usage ==
All spawn points are created in an identical fashion - by creating the required [[Entity info_team_gdf_spawn|info_team_gdf_spawn]], [[Entity info_team_strogg_spawn|info_team_strogg_spawn]] or [[Entity info_spectator_spawn|info_spectator_spawn]] entity as appropriate.

All spawns can be rotated or targetted so players face the correct direction when they spawn.

=== Player Spawns ===
Player spawns should generally be placed on just above the ground they need to spawn at. If it is an outside spawn and you want players to deploy from a height via a parachute or Strogg shield, move the entity high above the ground and set the {{keyname|[[Entity info_team_gdf_spawn#parachute|parachute]]}} key on each spawn entity to {{keyvalue|1}}; when the player spawns, their parachute will be opened automatically.

* See [[Entity info_team_gdf_spawn|info_team_gdf_spawn]] and [[Entity info_team_strogg_spawn|info_team_strogg_spawn]]

=== Spectator Spawns ===
If there are no spectator spawns, spectators will start spectating at the first player spawn the game finds. So it is preferable to place an [[Entity info_spectator_spawn|info_spectator_spawn]] entity overlooking the map to give them a pleasant view. If necessary, use a [[Entity target_null|target_null]] entity as the target to point it in a specific direction.

* See [[Entity info_spectator_spawn|info_spectator_spawn]]

== Capturable spawns ==
The [[Capturable Spawns]] article explains how to set up a spawn area that a team can capture in order to spawn there.
