This is an easy mod to assemble. All you need is a Hex Editor.
Open the tat3.lvl inside the Addon folder, etc..
In the hex editor, search for com_bldg_invisible_controlzone
shortly below in code stuff, you will see L0.0, this is a capture radius(0 locks a base)
Giving the base 1.0 range or more activates it, thing is there is no actual command post object in the map, so who's got time to walk around a map looking for a capture region? Easy, I just gave the CP a whopping 50.0 radius :P
Then finding a base with 50.0 becomes simple in a tiny map.
The command post them becomes usable for either team.
Also, when you have found com_bldg_invisible_controlzone, notice a little bit of data that looks like "ý¢3"
this determines by default who controls the base even if it has 0 radius.
0 is neutral, 1 and 2 are teams, and 3 is for native factions, in this map the cp belonged to Gamorreans.
I made a video showing how a team with no default cp's left can still spawn if they have hijacked the Gam's spawn point. The new cannot be selected in the menu, it can be used if you have no other bases.

Yes, the mod IS possible on a server manager.
I got this idea when I .. stole? the Gamorreans spawn on SWBF2.
Haha! That's pretty cool!
I'm assuming this is the case for all maps with locals (except Tatooine: Dune Sea)?
I searched every map file for hidden command posts, I only got 1 more instance on Hoth, but I'm not gonna waste hours walking in the snow for a cp :p

That was most likely meant for the Probe Droids side.
I'm surprised there's not one in Mos Espa for the Jawas.
Yes, you can see that CP in freecamera.
Its in the DataTat3 assets folder pandemic gave us with BFBuilder as well.
this should work on any maps with local spawn nodes not tied to cps. such as mos, endor, kashyyyk, etc.
