Don't you only need 1 pole for an Elite map?

I assume you are a beginner of map editing.

Every beginner does the same mistake: Forggeting to declare the poles/spawns.

How to do it:
When you are in the SM map editor, you can see a bar on the top left corner with the text "Shootmania/EliteArena". Right next to the text, there is an icon which looks like a tool. It turns blue when you hover over it. Click on it. Now you can declare a pole with the attribute "Goal A", "Goal B" etc. If you don't do this, every pole will have the same attribute called "Goal A" and every spawn will have the same attribute called "SpawnAttack". You have to do the same with the spawn.

In the early stages of Elite, there used to be 3 poles. But as time passed, the community began to favor the version of having only 1 pole. So if you want to create an Elite map which represents the standards of a today's Elite map, then place 1 pole and 2 spawns. And don't forget to declare the spawns :)
Then you have a validated map :thumbsup:

I hope I could help you.
