I used the editor for the first time last night and followed the first two EA tutorials. I could not figure out after you right click and create a spawn point or object spawn how to move the point freely on the map :confused: . If I double click it I can modify it's co-ordinates but i want to drag it somewhere else.

In the level editor, hold your mouse button down for a while and then drag the mouse over the ControlPoint and SpawnPoint, that'll select them both with the selection box.

Now go to the top selection bar where you can find the move tool (blue and red arrow, pointing in their own direction). That should provide you with three colorfull arrows on the selected objects within the editor. In this case, the ControlPoint and SpawnPoint.

Now you can either click each arrow on the object to move it in each direction, or you can hit the small red box, in which the arrows come from, to move it more freely around the terrain, which also snaps it to the terrain.

Hope you'r able to follow this instructions, and that it helps ya out.

I will give it a try tonight. I knew it must be something simple. I could highlight it so it showed the arrows but not move it. Is there anyway to overlay the snap grid over the terrain while editing?
