Fixed starting positions

I cannae work it out!

Hello,

 

I'm trying to create a custom map to play with a friend against a bunch of AI's, where we basically have to hold them off at 6 keypoints, but I can't seem to find the correct settings for the map, to put us both into the correct positions, side by side in my map.

 

So at the game creation screen:

Player 1 - Me
Player 2 - My mate
Player 3 - AI
Player 4 - AI 2
Etc. 

Is there a way to have Player 1 assigned to a specific HomePlanet, and so on?

 

EDIT: Or a way to have us start in our own sun and the AI's in another?

If you specify teams and play with them locked, it should do it.

Sorry,

 

How do you specify teams?

Edit menu->Players, set the TeamID. -1 means unspecified, 0 is team 1, and so on.
