THIS MAKES ME HAPPY!!!!!

Good stuff guys.

I am a mission maker and love Alive for making missions. I am having issues with Civilians slowing server launch time. I am building a mission on the new Bornholm map and am looking to fill the map with a large population of Civilians. When I put down the Civilian modules. I am looking at a 5-10 min load time as (I believe) Alive has to scan a tonne of potential spawn points and then decide which locations a Civilian will spawn. Once the mission is loaded, the server runs perfectly. It is just the initial launch time.

So I am wondering if it is possible to have a database that Alive can create and edit of spawn locations for particular maps. Could be server side and once a map has been scanned by alive. It is able to go back and look at that information. Do a check to make sure it is still valid and then launch the mission without having to do a full scan of the map again and mark out spawn locations again.

I don't know if there is any more information I can provide to help find where this issue is coming from or if it is a mission specific or map specific issue. Happy to provide any information I can if you know what your after.
