Online War - FMB scripting

[TheEnlightenedFlorist]

Well, I've been messing around with changing spawn points for a while and I've got it mostly working except for one huge problem. The new spawn points don't update until I switch teams. For example, if I'm on red team and BirthPlace_1 switches to blue, I can still spawn there until I switch to blue and then back to red. I suspect it has something to do with the first mission still running after the second one is started, or the code isn't destroying BirthPlaces properly. It destroys "AiBirthPlaces". Do players use "AiBirthPlaces", or is that only for the AI. I saw no way to get a list of player "BirthPlaces".

Here's the code and the missions attached. If anybody sees any problems with it, please tell me. The spawn points and front lines will change sixty seconds after the mission starts.

        internal double x;  //x coordinate
        internal double y;  //y coordinate
        internal int army;  //army that "owns" the marker. 1 is red. 2 is blue.

        internal MissionMarker(double x, double y, int army) { this.x = x; this.y = y; this.army = army; }
