I am trying to create an outpost, but I came across a problem. I know how to create reinforcements and make them work, but I can't get the extra waves to work. I tried placing a few wave 3 enemies(not reinforcements). I set them so that I would have only have to elimate one enemy from wave 1 to trigger wave 3. When I tested the map and shot some of the wave 1 enemies, it never triggered wave 3. I'm not sure why they never appeared, Since it does work when in assault mode. Can I only use wave 1 enemies?
If you want to trigger wave 3 then you can only do that by killing a player from wave 2 first.
If you set it so that one kill triggers the next wave you must kill a wave 1 enemy to trigger wave 2
Kill a wave 2 enemy to trigger wave 3 - kill a wave 3 enemy to trigger wave 4 and kill a wave 4 enemy to trigger wave 5.
There is a slight delay before the next wave triggers it isn't instant.
As above I used a bear to kill an enemy which then triggered the next wave, you can raise an enemy A.I. really high in the air so that they die when they hit the ground, that will also spawn the next wave if you have it set to one kill spawns next wave.
With animals you can set it so that they respawn when killed, this also works with friendly A.I. (see video below)
I have not tried it yet but Enemy A.I. might have an option to Respawn if you make a Hunt Map.
Also put the 3rd wave behind the corner out of view, sometimes they won't spawn if you are looking in their direction or if you can see them. This is to avoid breaking the immersion of the game by seeing enemy spawn right in front of you. Putting them close to the action, behind the corner will allow them to spawn, and come running in form the side.
