Well i'm not 100% sure this is a bug. But if it's a feature i would like to know more about it.

After the Chicago Insurgency server crashed, I and a couple others rejoined, but the mass of players didn't. So we were stuck playing 3vs3 for a while. Well one of the H guys wanted to expirement with the vehicles to see if more would spawn when they were moved, so he moved all the vehicles over into the the middle of the main. Then we grabbed an APC and went into town looking for caches. Eventually getting IED'ed trying to come back to base for repairs. Not a big deal, but when we went to spawn back into the main. The circle was red, like when people are standing on the spawn points, except we had only 2 people alive. And one was out of the main, and the other was 1manning an APC out front. We voip'ed to the guy in the APC who was in our squad and he texted the other team. Asking them to move away so we could spawn. They didn't, saying stuff like "we didnt do anything" "bring that apc out here and clear the area" etc. So we never did get to check to see if people had overrun out main. But switching to the insurgents varified they were spread around our main. Now, i wouldn't really mind this, but the tickets don't count down. I told the guy in the APC to 'ram them' in hopes that when he died, the tickets woudl bleed out. But nothing happened when we were all dead. The tickets sat at 198. Eventually the admin did change the map to get it working again.

Screen shot:

Just to be clear, the moved vehicles were nowhere near the regular spawn points. They were mainly parked along side of the H shaped building. And no amount of spamming the Enter key worked either.

I've seen this happen on numerous maps, and while the main spawn is red, so long as there are friendly rallies, you can select them and get sent back to main. It's very confusing, and I'd like to know if it's a bug/feature.

Bug, possibly related to the vehicle "blocking" the spawnpoints, even though they are not on them.

I get this every time a bomb car hit the USMC or USA main base and time to time it stays red for ever

Also happens with the Russian main spawn on Fool's Road from time to time.

That was me Mojo, although I wasn't moving vehicles and I'm not sure if that had anything to do with it. We were taking fire inside the main and had a few vehicles destroyed there and around the main gate. Not really sure what caused it but it remained no one could spawn so I did a restart. Glad you brought it up I had forgotten about it.
