Not sure I’m following. So being close to the edge stops patrols from spawning? Then spacing the squad out 65 ms apart with one guy near the edge stops patrols?
Yeah, once all the bases are dead, enemies spawn from the direction of the closest map edge, heading towards a player.
Enemies can’t spawn within 65m 75m of a player, which is a “safe zone”. Players that split up can each have a patrol spawn on them.
If the closest map edge is less than 65m 75m away, enemies can’t spawn targeting that player at all.
If it is more than 65m 75m away, then enemies will spawn from the direction of the closest map edge. The way to prevent this is to have one player stand at the end of another player’s safe zone, linking the safe zones together, until someone’s safe zone overlaps the map edge.
If you don’t overlap the zones then someone could wind up with a patrol spawning in the gap between safe zones. I think. I haven’t had to chain zones really. In practice, most often someone just has to stand at extract and then someone else has to move towards the map edge.
This is usually easier to do before calling extract.
But if you’re within
6575 meters of the map edge after destroying all the bases, then your safe bubble will stop all the spawns.You can chain these together to stop spawns at an extract that is further than
65m75m from the edge.Not sure I’m following. So being close to the edge stops patrols from spawning? Then spacing the squad out 65 ms apart with one guy near the edge stops patrols?
