    Ok kind of Stuck --- Agaain
    what am i missing -- really can't figure it out.

    The Moon i'm working on is a Mod of the Standard 'MoonIce2ZiraxHome '
    with just different POIs. I just wanted some spiders on my mars...

    The Error i get in the log file when i load the Playfield is:

    -ERR- Entity in planet life spawning does not have a group in group config:Spider02Small
    -ERR- Entity in planet life spawning does not have a group in group config:Spider01Baby
    -ERR- Entity in planet life spawning does not have a group in group config:Spider01Small
    .. etc


    Syntax in Playfield.yaml file

    CreatureSpawning:

    - Biomes: [Regolith,Flats,Rifts,Dunes,IceSheet]
    Entities:
    - Name: Spider02Small
    Period: Always
    Amount: 40
    DelayMinMax: [10, 12]

    - Biomes: [Regolith,Flats,Rifts,Dunes,IceSheet]
    Entities:
    - Name: Spider01Baby
    Period: Always
    Amount: 40
    DelayMinMax: [10, 12]

    Have tried copying thr entore standard confoguration folder to my scenario content (but no effect)
    cause was suspicious of the groupconfog file.


    Playfield Dynamic and static uploaded below ...

    You need to either use an existing entry from EGroupsConfig.ecf, or add a new one to it. The EGroupsConfig file is what sets the spawn groups.

    Many many thanks - It would never have occurred to me to look at that file
    and if i had i wouldn'r have noticed the Small differences in the naming..
