Start with Icepick's modding guide. Specifically, the section on buildings. If that doesn't help, please post here again. However, when you post here again, please do try to use proper capitalization and grammar. It will make it easier to read what you have written.

It is not just your spelling -- it is your grammar and lack of punctuation, as well. They are hindering your ability to communicate, as I honestly can't figure out what your problem is. You are trying to create a spawn system, as in Biosphere? What have you done? What is not working? You need to be more clear...

Icepick, at http://www.thenextgame.co.uk/modguide/index.php?p_id=11 , wrote:SpawnPointMaster
The Master Controler for the SpawnPoints. It divides up the souls and sends them along SpawnLinks to the SpawnPoints. You can connect SpawnPointMaster's to SpawnLinks or to SpawnPoints directly, [b]but nothing else can be linked to them, or you will crash the editor[b]. Note that it is not actually nessecery to connect a SpiritSpawner or anything else to a SpawnPointMaster, they spawn spirits themselves.
This building comes online once the population of the Red Team (team 1) on the level has dropped below a certain level.

Emphasis mine.

Read the guide that I linked you to. It explains what you are doing wrong. You cannot connect anything to a SpawnPointMaster except a SpawnLink or SpawnPoint. If you try to connect a ReceiverLink to a SpawnPointMaster (or to a SpawnLink or SpawnPoint), Darwinia will crash.

Look very carefully at the way in which the buildings are placed in Biosphere. Are the ReceiverLinks actually connected to the SpawnPointMaster? Nope. There is a ReceiverLink placed in exactly the same place as the SpawnPointMaster. The last visible ReceiverLink connects to that hidden ReceiverLink, not to the SpawnPointMaster. The SpawnPointMaster is then connected to the SpawnLinks and SpawnPoints.
