==== Spawn Areas ====

There are three types of spawn area available.  Trader and Pirate spawns are the normal spawn points, and do what you expect them to.  Traditionally the pirates spawn 100m - 200m behind the traders, but you could try some more unorthodox things if you want.  Bear in mind that a head-on spawn will (I believe) put the players in the pirate spot, with the AIs facing them in the trader spot.
These types of spawn consist of a SimGroup named in the form PlayerDropPoints1Pirate or PlayerDropPoints1Trader, which contains four SpawnSpheres.  These mark (in order) the front-left, front-right, rear-left, and rear-right corners of the area.

The third type is the ambush, named in the form AmbushPoints1Pirate.  These are optional, but I like to add one to each spawn point, just to stop people getting complacent.  These consist of 25 or more SpawnSpheres, which each give the position and facing of a single car.

''Ambush points''

You can have as many spawn areas as you like, just keep increasing the number.  One nice trick (which I didn't think of when making Oil Slick, unfortunately) is to add spawns at both ends of your path, facing towards the centre.  Driving the map in both directions adds a bit of variety, and it means players will be seeing all that nice decration you added from both sides.
