spawn in this case has nothing to do with respawning.

Right... but the waitUntil is pointless. That's all I mean. --[[User:Doolittle|Doolittle]] 01:23, 22 May 2007 (CEST)

:At best, Spawn is redundant. For waituntil to work, you need to already be in a 'spawned' (sleepable) script.
:Properly typechecked it would probably be a syntax error.
:At worst, it will run the preloadcommand after (if at all) it has proceeded with whatever code is below the waituntil.

This example is confusing to me. Why would you spawn with a waitUntil?? doolittle

spawn in this case has nothing to do with respawning. It merely means to start a new script, check the spawn command in the comref.

Edit: Unless I misunderstood your question, in which case.....sorry.
