Maximum Simultaneous Spawns

Hi
I would like to know what the maximum number of actors a spawning actor can spawn at the same exact time. I can get my spawner to generate two actors but I need to generate four simultaneously.

    Based on what ever trigger you have to spawn....shouldnt you just be olacing 4 spawn behaviors in that trigger. For you to get two to work...you must be very close to just repeating that process two more times.

    928 actors is the limit.

    How do I know? Okay, I don't but let's just say it's in the hundreds if not thousands. Obviously, the more actors you spawn at one time, the more of a hit to performance the app is going to take. Four? I wouldn't worry about four.

    After about 300-400 actors (at once) the pause between the command to spawn and the actors actually appearing begins to become noticeable (~ 1/10th of second), but you are right in that the actual limit is probably much higher.
