can't get enemy spawnat to work

hi

i'm trying to just do a basic script to have an enemy spawn at co-ordinates when walking over a trigger, i'm using the following script and it just doesn't seem to be working

entity spawnat enemy1 23 9

map return

is there something i'm missing here?

also when i combine triggers on the map (i'm using a default sound file trigger for slot 1 and the above script for slot 2) it crashes the game, anyone know what this issue is about also?

thanks

You're missing a whole coordinate. Check the updated manual.

No idea on crashing. This was supposed to be fixed.

cheers, how do i find the Z co-ordinate though?

Are you serious? Read the manual once again. It literally says this:

tileY is floor number (0 to 8). TileX and tileZ can be seen in the editor.

If you're going to reply like this I'd appreciate if you didn't respond to my posts please.

We're all here to ask questions and learn, not be belittled for it 

If you're going to ask everything that explained in manual all the time, I will simply delete your posts on sight. How's that?

So it's better that or nothing.

Surely you can see where the confusion is though...

"tileY is floor number (0 to 8). TileX and tileZ can be seen in the editor."

Yet the coordinates we actually see in editor are X and Y (none experimental version)

So how was I supposed to know that A - it wasn't a typo and B - this specific command changes what Y and Z actually mean.

But sure, keep threatening to flex those mod muscles 

Because it's an UPDATED manual, that's why it can't be a typo.

I'm not into your silly excuses anymore. Read the manual. That's all.

by the way, your manual says this in the entity section of the script page, where the spawnat command is located 


So?

you posted above that tile Y was floor number but it says Z is floor there.

I'm really not trying to be awkward here and I apologise for my aggressive earlier I'm just trying to figure this out as someone who doesn't do a lot of scripting
