When not used in the specific command sense, spawning is the act of placing a new sprite into the running game.

The spawn commands add actor <tile number> to the current map, at the position of the actor that spawned it.

Commands with an "e" prefix set the gamevar RETURN to spawned actor's sprite id.

Commands with a "q" prefix insert the spawned sprite into the decal deletion queue, like the command insertspriteq.

Commands with a "var" suffix take gamevars rather than constants or defined labels for their inputs.
