Set it to "Middle." The cave tileset (at least the smooth Troll cave...I'm assuming that's the one you're using?) is one of the many that has the "back" and "middle" blinky spawn points reversed.
It's an annoying bug but at least it's consistent. Objects set to "middle" on these maps will spawn in back (as long as you have enough "back" spawn points available), and those set to "back" will spawn in the middle. Just make sure you check after every patch to make sure the bug hasn't been stealth-fixed.

Ah, excellent, that worked nicely. Thanks for the info!
Sorry for the double post, but this seems like a pretty similar problem;
I'm trying to spawn 2 allies at the start of a map (one of the Oranbega maps, specifically), but nothing I do seems to work. If I select front, they spawn at the back, if I select back they spawn in the back, and if I select middle they spawn in the middle. Is there any way to actually get allies to spawn at the start of the oranbega maps?
Thanks
Some CoT maps lack an ally or escort spawn point in the front of the map. You'll have to check them individually to make sure but you may not be able to do it. It affected one of my arcs but the change I made worked out for the best in the end.
Yeah, Ive found one of the unique maps which works just fine for what I want, and the map itself is a better fit too, so I guess it all worked out in the end.
Thanks!
I recently started using the MA, but I'm having trouble with the Collect an Object objective. I have a cave map, and a single glowie that needs to be collected, but instead of appearing in the back where I've told it to, it just shows up in random corridors, sometimes very close to the start of the mission.
Am I doing something wrong here? Is there a way to get my glowie to reliably appear in the back of the cave?
