i downloaded a map once that did that, and had no idea why, but then i found that a pile of jeeps were slowly spawning under the level one at a time... till there was so many jeeps that it started to lag and shit was dissapearing, check to make sure a pile of Anything isnt spawning.... this can be weapons / vehicles / and other stuff.

theres a glitch that happens every now and then when adding a weapon spawn point, or vehicle spawn point, and that is, the vehicle will spawn and stay there, then another one will spawn 50 seconds later, and keep going untill theres a pile of em.... no idea why... but it could be somthing like that.

i have looked around and i cant see any piles of anything.
it this helps at all i am spawning everthing thru the "itmc" tag.

edit: i have played other ppls maps that have a whole bunch of stuff in it some have more than mine does and theres doesnt glitch out what can i do to stop it from glitching out but i still want to try and keep all the stuff in the map?

i took out the scarab and now stuff doesnt glitch out but now it is lagy when ever i look at where most of the trees are

If your spawning trees or machs in the itmc tag, make sure your setting it to not respawn or else it will keep on doing that and will lag the game.

vehicles pile up due to the fact that people dont make sure the edited the "max per map" thing that makes only one spawn at a time.

Asking questions is a good thing, not trying to search before you post is the only thing that seems to tick people off on these forums. Anyway, in the scnr's netgame equipment reflexive there is an option for something like max on map, not 100% sure since i havent gone in that tag for a while, and setting that to one sometimes stops the game from lagging up when it comes to scen.

Another thing you can use and I know has the max per map thing is A program called halo 2 collection editor. It's in the file forums just search for it but you can just set the max per map to 1 and it'll only spawn once and to be sure of that set the respawn time to a high number.
