You can create some dummy AHuman actor which when created will spawn the train and then delete itself, that should be easy.



Ah, sorry I don't follow, so I create an AHuman Actor and then what? Should I just look at the code found in some mods like Xenobiology and simply modify what he did to create the plants that spawn from seeds?


I'm confused as to what he meant, do I create like a grenade or AHuman and then tell it to spawn another unit? Is that through .ini or .lua?

Through Lua, is probably what he meant. Attaching a script to the dummy or whatever, which will spawn your train or whatever you need spawned.

You could also have an actor gib into what you want to spawn. I'm sure you could do hacky things with gib impulse limits to make an actor gib when they appear into what you want in the scene.
