Attention! Hot screenshot tip! 👀 1. In Custom Game options, turn Machinima Controls on. 2. In game hold DPAD UP + X for a few seconds. This puts you in camera mode and removes the HUD; fly around and frame your shot. 3. Press the Xbox button and hit Y to Capture Screenshot.

I've made a simple script to help Forgers find out badly placed Respawn Points on their maps. The script teleports your player to each Respawn Point on the map (128 max) so you can simulate spawning on each of them and determine if you can react to something happening or not.
