46.16 & 40.58 are your altitudes .....-1 if that was done by console.showstats 1

its not actually -1 accurately, more like -.7 but its often better to spawn it slightly high so it doesnt end up stick in the ground atall

I had trouble like this spawning the Mi8t. It would spawn way up in the sky and I wouldn't see it until about 60 seconds later when it came crashing down. It turns out the Mi8t's 0/0/0 coordinateswere different than the object I was replacing and it was spawning just under the map, which due to wrap-around, put it at the top of the map where it would come tumbling down. The altitude I was getting from console.showstats was 41.8 and I changed it to 45 and shazaam, there it was. Spawning right on top of the ground where it was supposed to.
The moral of this story is, try boosting your alt up 2 or 3 points and maybe it'll show up.

wraparound? if you spawn something underground i thought it just hit waterlevel and died(if its not a boat)

yeah certain items (normaly helis for some reason) spawn in relation to different parts of them so you might spawn one object nice and perfectly on the ground but a different one in the same spot spawns half in the ground or completely underground and dies, just something ya gota tweek a bit as ya go

Wrap around was all I could figure. It was El Alamien and I was swapping Mi8t for scud. I sat there and waited for it to spawn and after waiting long enough I would see it dropping a couple hundred yards away out in the desert to the North.
