TDM limitations or bugs?

I searched but couldn't find any recent posts on this, so sorry if it's been covered before.

 

On Xbox One, in the TDM Creator I'm forced to place 15 "starting spawn points" per team regardless if I have 8 players max or 30 players max. I'm also forced to place 60 spawn points, and 40 weapons.

 

With these restrictions (or lack thereof) I find it impossible to create a relatively "small scale" map for 4-8 players. Placing the required 60 spawn points (and the required distance between each), I end up with a map much larger than I wanted.

 

Is this a bug? Anyone know of a workaround? I just want to make a map for 4-8 players with realistic spawns and weapons placement. Thanks.

Nope it's something that cropped up after the last update - as far as I know it is been highlighted to R* and may be addressed in a future update. hopefully it won't be long.

I hear they're addressing the prop proximity glitch and the description text limit glitch very soon - See This Post Here

 

As for your problem, you have to place 15 starts per team (no workaround that I know of)
But you only have to place twice as many spawns as players you set in the DM Details menu (eg. 8 players = 16 spawns)

The weapon thing is 40 max - place however many you like.

Why would you want a small scale map????

 

Well maybe to limit the amount of random helmet wearing idiots getting in or maybe your like me and wanna make tiny maps to play with a handful of friends rather than the unwashed masses... that never join, due to either crappy matchmaking or cause I never put enough $$$s in the title.

I'm done with 30 players warzones. I'm starting to work on more intimate killing zones. 8 Players and less.

You can have more fun with it as you can use the natural environment instead of building giant arenas.

The 15 start point thing is an annoyance but there's ways to work it if you get creative.

 

For instance;
