randomize egg spawns

Tyrant

Small suggestion

I was at alien start on summit killed all the eggs then proceeded to destroy the hive. The egg right beside the hive kept spawning. So it was rather too easy to axe the hive ... 3 seconds later ... turn and kill egg. Too easy.

its my under standing that the eggs will appear anywhere within a certain distance of the hive as long as their is some infestation, although it may create them in a certain order.

If all the eggs are destroyed it keeps making the next egg at the same location. So one person can completely stop aliens from respawning.

This is a huge problem on summit where a marine can keep killing the initial egg that spawns to the west of the hive.

If you played the alpha then you know they used to spawn in a random radius around hives, but they changed it to fixed locations because players kept spawning in walls and such..

If you played the currect version you would that the eggs spawn in order on these fixed locations, making these fixed positions random is the point here.
