Looking at the spawn point radius on the map they should all fit in there, but it's really hard to say with that issue.
In general your away team should be able to spawn with you in the turbolift. The radius is small enough for it to work. Just make sure the point is centered. It does suck that you probably can't test this before publishing with the current bug.

Another unrelated thing that I've always wondered about is why don't our missions have pathing data when they've already been published and we preview them? It seems like defaulting to the published version's pathing would be better than having none. Sure you could change the geometry and cause problems, but with no pathing data you have problems all the time.

Well, I published my "Long Lost Friend 2", and played it in the game itself, (played the published version), and I'm pleased to say You Are CORRECT!!!!

The only thing that doesn't happen is sound effects when the main character bashes a generator with his fists in the mission, but that's ok.

The main greatness is that, You are Right!!

The area, in the borg cube, where the enemies usually dissappear in the foundry test, work as it should normally!!!! in the Published version!

Yaay!

I've been having a problem like this is space where my mobs (usually re-skinned ones) randomly transfer to the bottom of the middle of the map

The exteriors, so far, seem better than the interiors, but most of the interior.s.. the boffs are just ghosts. They vanish, seemingly at random.

Sometimes they respawn briefly somewhere else but most of the time they seem to die, leaving you friendless.
Just to add my $0.02, I have experienced this as well with several maps, in particular Borg Interior 1 and Borg Interior 2. If BOFFs run into any object--mostly walls, but really any immovable object, they keep running until they despawn to another part of the map. Even inserting invisible walls in the way of gaps in the walls doesn't prevent this.

Thanks.

I've been having the same problem where mobs and security guys just disappear or transfer. The strange thing is that for me it's the ones that aren't re-skinned that usually have problems.

Occasionally one of the people will stay behind when the rest of the mob transfers/disappears.

The general NPC and critter wonkiness is known, documented in the database and on the list to be fixed. The initial feeling was that it was just the lack of pathing info, but getting some good repro cases resulted in a re-assesment.

One interesting tidbit I noticed recently is that it does NOT happen in the Argelius II interior map.

But some other maps they'll disappear almost immediately.

On 21 may 2013, the lag in Star Trek online transcended EPIC! to become near complete Temporal Stasis.
Do not panic. The time distortion effect should end soon.

Tholian and Borg Ensigns despawn as well. And pretty much all NPC ships unexpectedly warp to around 20 km away upon entering combat.

Heheh, yes, it is known.
From my experience they sort of "fall through the floor" - sometimes on beam-in.

He's dead, Jim.
