Recently, I've taken to using the Galaxy Forge to create various maps. Because I didn't want to ridiculously overpowered pirates of Diplomacy, I decided to use a textpad to edit the file and prevent them from scaling. The only changes I've made was changing upgradesPerRaid from 2 to 0 as was advised to return the pirates to "Pre-Diplomacy" statis. This was all I changed.
Now, on to the Galaxy Forge, I've built the map with 3 pirate bases. I've customised the bases to start with the structures and ships I wanted and have ensured they show up in the game. They do, but now every time I start the map, the pirates as a faction show up as dead (the glass is shattered and no one can bid for them). Yes, before you ask, I DO have them set to active in the Game Options, not inactive. So why are raids not happening, and why can't people playing bid for them? How can I fix this? Thank you.
