Map Editor - Minor Races

from GalCiv3 Forums

When I create a custom map (i.e. entirely from scratch) most if not all Minor races spawn in a small circle around 'Player 1'.  Is this broken/intended or am I doing something wrong when I create a custom map?

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Note: I've run into the exact same thing when using a custom map in an MP game.  Except in MP, ~80% of the Minor races spawn around Player 1, and ~20% spawn around Player 2.

Minor races act funny with custom maps from my experience. Why I turn them off in any custom maps I play, if I fancy a game with Minor's I do a dynamic start.

You can, although I have not tried it as of yet, setup start positions in your map, 1 for each Major 1 for each minor, they will be random no way to chaneg that atm, to get even spacings.

Thanks, I was afraid that was what I was going to hear.
