Adding the key pair {{keyname|start_active}}{{keyvalue|1}} will ensure they spawn at map start. In a release map your vehicles should be arranged so that they aren't obstructed by other vehicles. They should also face towards one of the exits.

There are two ways of adding vehicles to maps. Sometimes we want vehicles to always be present during a game, while sometimes we want them to activate once an objective is completed or a spawn is captured. In our GDF base we want the vehicles always spawning, for the duration of the match.


Types of vehicles

To add one, use the entity structure_model_construction_<vehiclename>.


GDF base vehicles

For our GDF lets add the following vehicles;

  • 1x structure_module_construction_titan
  • 1x structure_module_construction_badger (Armadillo)
  • 1x structure_module_construction_trojan
  • 2x structure_module_construction_husky


Entity keys

Adding the key pair start_active1 will ensure they spawn at map start. In a release map your vehicles should be arranged so that they aren't obstructed by other vehicles. They should also face towards one of the exits.

The major components of a GDF base. But you will probabably want to make the perimeter secure with buildings or walls later on!
