Make sure the used Position is in format Position3D (i.e. it contains a third coordinate (z-coordinate)) because otherwise you will get an error as soon as you open the respawn screen and you will be respawned at position [0,0,0] (lower left corner of the map), although the map marker for the spawn position is placed as intended

As of Arma 3 Arma 3 logo black.png2.10, when you use an object as the respawn position on water (e.g. on a carrier), the respawn position is incorrect. Instead, just pass the ATL position. For example, if you intend to add a respawn position in Eden Editor, instead of the respawn position module, place a dummy object such as User Texture (1m) (class UserTexture1m_F) and paste this in its init:
if (isServer) then { [BLUFOR, getPosATL this, "My West Respawn"] call BIS_fnc_addRespawnPosition; deleteVehicle this; }
This code adds a respawn position at the position of the dummy object, and deletes the dummy object afterwards.
