Selecting starting postions

This isn't really beta feedback but i think it should be apart of the 1.1 patch.

Please can you add the ability you select where you and the AI spawn on the map so we can really get a good 4 vs 4 going and not being all alone in another system with 3 Hard AI around you.


My idea would be, we select the map we want and go on to chose the AI, once we choose the AI we want, we see a map in a corner with circles on it (could be 8 for 4vs 4) now all we have to do is select it and the number 1 would appear, that would be the Player in the first slot then the next number would be 2 which would be the next AI down from you on the list.

Please add this devs!

Truly, a really nice idea, I agree whole heartedly.

Can we get a way to give names to our AI opponents too? No offense to your randomly generated names, some are quite cool. I just like more control of my sandbox  :d .

Or you could just have a fixed starting positions option in the game options. Fixed= player 1 next to player 2 next to player 3 and so on.

Yes please! I was at a LAN party recently, and tried to play the game with two friends. We wanted a 3v3 comp stomp, but ended up getting stomped because one of us always started in the middle of the enemy camp.

This feature is defiantly overdue to be added.
