Well the tutorial for scripting spew on gameedit.com seemd simple enough. "Requires basic" knowledge. Ok ok. Now the confusion comes in where it says to insert an object of type forcefieldnode. Forcefieldnode is in the matcens. My quesiton is what the hell is a matcen and how do I use them and configure them? Any help at all would be appreciated. Thanks!.

Matcens are robot Materialization Centers, also known as "producers." They are in all three Descent games in singleplayer and are usually distinguished by their veiny, purple textures. They manufacture robots to fight.

In Descent 3, they are placed as rooms. There's an option in the world view (Window -> Matcens). Highlight a room in your map and select New Matcen. On the three tabs below, you can set how the robots spawn in and what kinds spawn.
