spot

In a 2D turn-based game, when using the "battle" component to enter a custom battle, most of the time the combatants are generated correctly in position (Figure 1, where the combatants and health bars are on the same horizontal line), ![https://pbs.twimg.com/media/G21hklNaIAAluXt?format=jpg&name=large]
but sometimes they are generated in the wrong position at the start of battle (Figure 2, where the generation position is shifted down by a few units). ![https://pbs.twimg.com/media/G21hltxasAAwi8h?format=jpg&name=large]
When the "Battle" component is moved to a different location on the map (Figure 3, moved to another position), the combatants are then generated correctly in the right position when entering battle. ![https://pbs.twimg.com/media/G21hmpPbAAA9Ju5?format=png&name=large]
How should this be handled?

Battle spot placement happens according to your setup in Battles > Battle Spots, e.g. if you're using the Raycast Settings to place them on the ground, this could cause different placements due to colliders being in the way in the way.

For 2D, you probably don't need to use place on ground, so try disabling this (if you're using it).

“Place On Ground”, i don't use it!
This might be an issue with the 'battle' prefab.
If you move the coordinate position of the 'battle' prefab by a few units,
the combatants will be generated in the correct position after entering battle. Misalignment only occurs when the 'Battle' prefab is at certain coordinates.
For example, when the coordinates are (X: -1, Y: -3.6, Z: 0), entering battle will cause misalignment.
When the coordinates are moved to (X: -5, Y: 10, Z: 0), entering battle will generate them in the correct position

Well, the battle spots are positioned based on the battle's position, i.e. in local space of the game object with the Battle component.
While in battle, the battle spots are actual game objects (child objects of the battle), so you can check if they are placed correctly relative to the battle.
