last gem grabbed will not respawn on the marble...but as for different gems in the same place, you're better off to have that scripted (set gems at the position at different times, move the others not in use)

Uh.. what?
I just want to know what it takes to get two different gems to spawn in different spawns but at the same locations.

Just put the two gems there and the PQ staff will decide whether to code them in or make it one gem.

Two at same spot isn't much recommended, but if they differ so you can only get either (not both) in one shot it would be a lot better.

I don't think this is a spoiler about PQ seeing as people need to know how Hunt Mode works to make the level.

The game randomly spawns gems by choosing one gem and then spawning a certain % of gems within a set radius from that gem.

Joining PQ is the easiest stuff ever with the least effort needed on your part. How cool is that?

To join, you get asked by me to join the staff

(behind the scenes, I select myself who's qualified at the time of need, and then ask staff whether they want the person in. Once everything is cool beans, I send in a personal message to the person that he's qualified and we're all interested and wondering whether he wants to join in)

(of course, being active, posting levels (edit: actually not a requirement, but nice to have on your resume), showing videos, posting w/e times you got, letting us trust you and know you is part of the whole deal, but its so much effort its probably not worth it, right?)

As said, joining needs the least effort on your part

Is 50 enough?

Depends on the level. Smallest one we got has >80. If its a large level, you'll need hundreds.
