If this is a an intended effect, then it works

I would say this is lgtm

As an idea, placement markers for SAM and radar like in #735 . Though, since those can vary in sizes drastically it might get out of hand. THOUGH, a way to generally dictate where they should be placed would be nice.

Or, instead of adding more markers, simply use large static holders and do a check if they are inside SAM marker space. But then you would need to somehow diversify which holder goes to SAM and which goes to radar.

Sam marker already exists, and iirc radar uses a sam marker as well.

Not what I meant. I know sam marker exists. What I'm saying, is that said marker is used as a zone, in which both SAM and radar are both placed semi-randomly (iIrc), so maybe it would be nice to prevent this semi-random behaviour and dictate more exact positions where they should be placed.

Like, on this base it would be better if sam was on the left and radar on the right,but on the other base, it would be better if it was the opposite.

the biggest issue with this concept is it creates a circular dependency of loading the mod to add the objects to a map.
it'll need to exist both as an independent small mod for map creation, and also within the main mod for when its being used

I have tried it before, it broke the editor loading the main mod in entirety
