Vehicle spawn question

It is based on what is written in the events.xml file.  Look for events with a name that begins with vehicle.  The lifetime value there indicates how long a spawned vehicle will sit in its spawn point before it vanishes.  The nominal value indicates how many vehicles ideally should spawn on server start.  Whatever that nominal value is, you should have at least that many, but preferably a lot more, spawn points defined for that event in cfgeventspawns.xml.

So, let's say you wanted spawned vehicles to stay put for 2 hours.  In that case, the lifetime value should be 7200 since that's how many seconds there are in 2 hours.
