aCTD Utility Boxes

Utility Boxes (uBoxes) are the heart of the game.  These boxes located on the battlefield are programmed to perform functions such as respawn points, weapons pickup, armor increase, etc.  The function of the box is determined based on the game being played.

In the picture, you can see where the UBoxes are on the battlefield. There are 8 on the field but are numbered 1 through 12. They are numbered according to their position on a clock. So 12, would be 12 o'clock, 3 would be 3 o'clock and so forth. This number is used if you want to design a battle.
