I am having some issues with spawning chopper on the landing pads. Due to the surface layout, the solid ground is X marked, while the in-between space are grid-like surface. My assumption here is the X-marking makes it easier to spot the landing pad from air. The issue here is the grid-like surface makes it hard for one to spawn on a landing pad because the chopper "falls" thru non-solid surfaces coupled with the narrow X-mark surface on the pad. I suggest those grids be changed to a solid surface so the whole landing pad can be used to spawn, rather then requiring one to have precision positioning skills. jc
The problem isn't the grate texture... it's when you move the mouse to the edge of the raised X. Avoid that and you're fine. I went to spawn my Gungnir about 3 or 4 times (different way each time) this morning just to check and it worked fine.
