I am playing on the map "Angevine Countryside".

I wanted to sell some goods. So I drove to the sellpoint to notice I could not unload. Also on my pda you could see the point was to the left of me.
In developersmode I could see the sellpoint being inside the building instead of being at the unload point.

I checked the coordinates in the XML and tried this with Giants Editor in the map itself. When I do this, the sellpoint is at the right place, so the coordinates are good. But why is the location changed when I start the game?

So you only changed the coordinates in the maps itself using GE? Most likely you only moved a placeholder.

You need to change the coordinates in the placeables.xml of the map.
But this change only takes effect for a new savegame.

For an existing savegame, you need to change the coordinates in the placeables.xml of your savegame.
You can find your savegame files right next to the mods folder.

I tested the coordinates. The sellpoint gets the coordinates from the xml. So I went in GE, created a transform group, gave it the coordinates I found in the xml, checked were at the factory it went, and saw it was at the place where the factory has an unloading point. But when I am in game, the sellpoint trigger, suddenly is placed more to the left.

Something must place it there but I cant find what it is.

Did you check the sellpoint itself in GE?
Maybe the sell trigger is not centered with the main transform group.
