I feel like I've tried everything. The situation is:
Four enemies called "horde 1"
All enemies set to "spawn a start = no"
Two are on elevated ground, on top of an unscaled entity
Two are on elevated ground, on top of a scaled entity. (a huge table with a flat surface)
The latter two's appear script is appearnofloorlogic, to prevent getting caught in the scaled entity and going cuckoo.
I'm not completely sure, but their ammo pickups seem to be all that remain.
I've tested various things such as "maximum spawn = 1", "max. at any time= 1" and all those spawning options.
Anyway they just don't appear. What should I do!?!

EDIT: the trigger zone is set to "plrinzoneactivateused" and ifUsed has "horde 1"

It's been two days and no reply. When they say that patience is a virtue, I didn't have this in mind. Can anyone help?

Process of elimination. Start again and just add 4 enemy to level and see what happens each time. Introduce each setting and try game to see what is at fault.

One thing I have found is that shaders needed to be off for some characters. If I had them on, the enemy are invisible (they shoot and move but you just see their weapon).

The situation has changed. I'm now doing it with one enemy, to figure out the problem. He doesn't spawn at the start and the trigger zone is set up. When I go up to him; regardless of whether the trigger zone has been used or not, I get this:
The enemy is invisible, but is definately there. However, this isn't like the usual situation of shader problems. The enemy does absolutely nothing. When his health has surely gone below zero, he is still there. His gun is not visible. One time, I picked up some invisible ammo in close proximity to the enemy, despite his obvious presence.
I'm at my wits end. What should I do?

i had similar problems... do this load the terrorstrike level which comes wih fps creator and then look at the properties of the triggerzone and the enemies that would spawn after player hits the triggerzone.

Transparency is set to zero.

I copied those properties, but it still didn't work.

BTW, just to be clear, the only sign of life the enemy shows is the bloodsplats when I shoot him.

It's strange. I've done this a million times but it screws up as soon as a retextured conker gets involved.

are you sure shader effects are off? Check your preferences.

I've figured out what the problem was. It seems the enemy needs a floor segment beneath his feet in order to spawn via triggerzone.
