Author Topic: Can't spawn vehicles...  (Read 1038 times)

On my Mario challenge I'm currently working on, I was intending to have a few areas with bots designed to look like goombas who move back and forth in a straight line to try and kill the player.

However, when I tried to spawn the bot, all I got was a beep and nothing appeared. I tried the other vehicles, even the default vehicles, but none spawned.

Someone on IRC said something about checking the folder it was in... but he failed to specify what to check for. All I see are the normal folders and zips, what am I looking for or what can I do to fix this problem?

Have you....

Disabled everything but the mods you absolutely need.
or...
Duplicated the problem with no addons

Tried reinstalling


All i can give you, mate. Most likely a baddon.

As I have said before, not even the default vehicles will spawn so I do not think it is a bad add-on. I have also redownloaded event bots, zapt, and the zombie mod just to be sure.

It is on flat ground right?

I had this glitch before, EXACTLY what you said.

But, the only thing that would spawn is the Motor Scooter.

I think it was because it was small?



Anyways, I re-started Blockland, and everything went back to normal.

Your vehicle limit may have been reached or is very low. Before you start a server open Advance Config and find vehicles and make the number higher.

And go to a slate map and plant ONLY the vehicle brick and try it. Sometimes it doesn't work if you spawn it somewhere the model has no room.

The ground must be un even. This is the problem.

The Beep/Boink usually sounds when you've hit the Vehicle Limit or there isn't enough room for the vehicle too spawn.

Actually, the "ground" in question is a plate brick. Plates are flat so this isn't it.

I thought it may have been that, so I did what Bara suggested and the bots/vehicles spawned just fine.

I have to the conclusion that it may have something to do with the map itself. I've been trying to make this challenge using the map Above and so far, this is the only place where I can't seem to spawn vehicles; Even when there is plenty of room. Has anyone else noticed this when using Above?

Is it on the "Above" map? Cause you can't spawn vehicles on that map. That's all I can think of.

No, heed had it pretty much right. If you try putting a vehicle spawn on the slant of a hill on the slopes map, it will do the beep/boink/thingy noise. You have to even out the ground below it by putting, say, bricks under it. If the vehicle spawn is buried under the map some, it won't spawn anything.

Yes... I recently went back to see what others said about it and I've found someone else with the same problem.

Ok, so I know what the problem is; It's just the map. Ok, thanks guys for the help.
