SEED - FAQ

Some Frequently Asked Questions and their answers about the SEED system:

Inhibitors do not work

If you added an inhibitor (atdm:no_seed) entity to your map and it doesn't suppress any entities, check that:

• you added a link from the SEED (atdm:seed) entity to the inhibitor. To do this, select the SEED, then the inhibitor, and then press CTRL+K.
• you did run dmap on your map. Every time you add, remove or change/move a SEED or an inhibitor entity, you need to dmap again, as D3 treats these entities as invisible map geometry, and thus their position/size will only be correct after a dmap.
