4 raptors will spawn and that’s it

Hi Pramit, Thanks for the report.

I followed your repro steps, and am seeing what you’re describing, but I noticed that the tooltip for ‘Spawn on Timer’ says “Determines if Wildlife should be spawned on a timer, or only when receiving events.”

So, under the hood, I think that “Enabled on Game Start” does not send spawn events.

Interesting. Let me look at that! Good catch.

Calling the spawn function worked but only to spawn one not the 4 I had specified in the config. I can certainly work around this in verse but it seems like there might be an issue.
