This will cause an invisible FARP, an ammo dump and a fuel dump to be placed (behind the slot in case of A-10A, to the side in case of AJS37) in the generated campaigns. The ground spawn slot can be used by human controlled aircraft in generated missions (there is also a separate option in settings to allow AI aircraft to be placed there, but the AI will start in the air if not enough ramp or runway slots are available). The ground spawn slots increase the total parking capacity of the base. The first waypoint of the placed aircraft will be the center of a SCENERY REMOVE OBJECTS ZONE trigger zone (which might or might not work in multiplayer due to a DCS limitation). The SCENERY REMOVE OBJECTS ZONE trigger can be used to clear runways/roads of lightposts, trees etc. Placing FARPs will also clear them. + +Ground spawns can be inserted in both airfields and FOBs.
