This command will not move a marker on dedicated server (if a client calls it). AI will continue to respawn at old spot if you are moving something like respawn_west.

The marker position can actually be set in 3D. This has a benefit for respawn markers, when placed at the correct altitude ASL on the LHD, the correct altitude will be used for respawn. There is no particular benefit for regular markers since markerPos will still return 0 for the altitude array element.
