This is my first post here in the NS2 forums and I'm not sure whether this is the correct place to post this, but I could not find a separate bug report forum or link. If this is the wrong place to post, I apologize and ask a mod to direct me to the correct procedure.
I jumped into an empty server running Refinery this morning to look at the map changes and joined the alien team. After running a bit around the map, I noticed an egg that spawned on top of one of the tanks in the starting hive (containment? I forgot the name, but it's the one that was always the alien starting hive in previous versions). I took a screenshot of it (sorry for the low res, but that's all my computer can handle until I upgrade it)

There's not much room between that egg and the ceiling, which shouldn't be a problem for a normal skulk spawn. But if the Khamm evolves that into a fade or onos egg, maybe the player could spawn stuck between the tank and the ceiling.
I wasn't able to jump into the hive and test this idea, since I was the only player in the server and the match hadn't started. But I just thought it would be a good idea to point this out to the devs and make sure no one ends up losing an onos due to a bad spawn location.
