1. I think you have to respawn quicker. 60s are too long, maybe try 10s.

2. To get the position of a marker, the correct command is: getMarkerPos "marker"

I try 10s and 100s and others. Alway bad, no matter how long is time of delay.
I try many options of getpos. This work correct. My problem is that AI often doesnt respawn - only dead body changing position.

Sorry for my english. I will be better in future, i still learning.

You haven't posted your whole script - those few lines up there don't spawn anything.  ;D

So - ...

a.) You could either post the whole script and some info how exactly you activate it in the mission editor.

b.) You could try my little "PatrolSpawnManager" here: http://www.ofpec.com/editors/resource_view.php?id=526 (http://www.ofpec.com/editors/resource_view.php?id=526)

c.) Search for other respawn scripts in the EditorsDepot up there
