I made a temp spawn, added a green key to it, made 1 on my map then Ctrl-P a few times and made 5 more.
My problem is that the key spawns at position 1 and only at position 1 unless i stand on it, then it spawns at 2.
Is there a way to make it truly random?

It should be automatic, its just chance that it happened to keep spawning in the smae location.

An object can't spawn between more than 2 places... I tried lot's of things to do this a while back but nothing seemed to work.

I would suggest loading like C&C_City_Flying and looking at theirs.

Hey, Maybe it is because you did control p on one of the things that lready had ctrl p done to it. What i'm saying is try just doing it multiple times to the original and not the duplicates (or w/e you wanna call them).

If you want the key to spawn on all 6 locations simultaniously you have
to "Make" 6 seperate spawners.

With "Ctrl+P" you set a "point" where it will randomly spawn.

Take a regular weapon spawner on Field for example, there is only ONE
spawner, but the powerup will spawn at various locations on the map. But
not more than 1 simultaniously.

It may help for random spawning tho...

I had this problem with KOTH Islands, where the teleporters would only go to 3 locations out of 5....I finally ended up just leaving it with 3.

But I never did try generating pathfind.

I think you have to lower "SpawnDelayVariation" then or "GotoSpanwnerPosProirity" -
not entirely sure but if you lower these values
to like 15.000 it will cycle more through the available powerups and the
different locations it could spawn.

You have to 'temp' the spawner then though, else it will use the servers
default spawner timer setup etc.
