I have been having the same issue. Weapons and Item Collection objects i place down in sapien just disappear after 30 seconds. The vehicles stay for some reason. The only way the weapons will stay is if i pick them up and discard them. Also the Rocket ammo packs won't respawn and they too disappear after 30 seconds. I have attached a video to show this. Any help would be appreciated.
How long exactly do your weapons stay in the level then disappear Shattered Silence?
Items Gone Video Divx - 1.5mb
oh and i am also using HaloCE.
EDIT:
I think i might of figured out what causes the items to disappear. Its the same time limit that the engine uses to remove dead bodies and dropped items from the level. So i'd imagine it would have to do with the game globals. I'm gonna try and troubleshoot it again. Otherwise i think i'll have to try placing the items using a different method.
EDIT:
I figured it out. I am such a dumb arse. You need to specifiy what item_collection tags you want to keep spawning in level by using the Netgame Equipment
place spawn points in your level then specify what game type you want the item to appear in (just use 'all games'). Next specify a 'SPAWN TIME' this is the time when the weapon or item will reappear after it has been affected by a player or explosion. Finally open up your Item_Collection tags and select the weapon, ammo, or powerup you want to use.
Its so simple. I should've gone back through the dam HEK Tutorial page supplied with the HEK. oh well. I'm happy
oh and you'll have to create a set of item_collection tags for your ammo tags otherwise you can't select them in the Netgame Equipment folder since the ammo tags are .equipment tags.
EDIT:
like i said i am an IDIOT.
