Wall stop respawns?
So, I understand that in the normal game, fence foundations stop spawns (dino & resource) in a small radius, walls stop spawns in a bigger radius and foundations stop spawns with the biggest radius.

Do these big walls count as normal walls for respawning purposes?

Thanks

To clarify... we're having the problem of some wild dinos spawning inside the base and I'm wondering if it's something to do with using big walls rather than normal walls. I guess to be sure you would snap ceilings to the walls, but it would be useful to know as in some cases you want a wall that doesn't affect spawns!

Okay, I've tested this extensively and big walls don't stop resources respawning nearby like normal walls do. This is useful in some instances, e.g. putting a wall on the cliff above our base to stop dinos dropping in, but without affecting the metal nodes up there.

I'd love two versions of each wall - one that has a respawn radius and one that doesn't!

I've discovered a way to manually control it: if you add a ceiling tile to a big wall, suddenly it affects resource (and presumably dino) spawns. This is a good way to turn the spawn radius on and off.
