Re: Preponderance - Big Team Game! [starting!]
 

I recieved the first turn but when I open it I realise that I am... nowhere! The map seems to be centered on a starting position, but I own no province and have no commanders or armies or whatever.

Re: Preponderance - Big Team Game! [starting!]
 

You are sure you havent done something by accident with the map filter settings ? Turning of flags/forts and armies gives that effect actually. For me the turn was fine.

Re: Preponderance - Big Team Game! [starting!]
 

Map filters are fine, and hitting 'n' does not select anything.
Could this be caused by creating my pretender without the single age mod, or with the wrong one as there seems to be two of them?

Re: Preponderance - Big Team Game! [starting!]
 

Maybe you've got the wrong map? Is the name of your map "WoG - Team Arena"?

Re: Preponderance - Big Team Game! [starting!]
 

I'm pretty sure I downloaded the right map. I'll try that, but I think the game outputs an error message when the correct map can't be found.

Also : I see victory points on the map, corresponding to capitals. Isn't the central island supposed to have some too? And one province seems to have two of them, too.

Agreed on the VPs. There are 2 in #324, none in #249.

The .map is actually in the .trn file for MP game clients. So it's not a case of the wrong .map, I think we need a fixed map and a restart.

I am sure all starting locations are put properly on the map. I will contact llamabeast, but I have no idea what the problem may be. I've heard about LA MArignon wanting coastal start, but that shouldn't really be a problem here.

Re: Preponderance - Big Team Game! [starting!]
 

Ah..... are you sure about that? Because I recall seeing LA Marignon placed into a coastal start even when I tried to force LA Marignon to start elsewhere.

If he requires a coastal start, and all of the coastal provinces are marked nostart, I believe that'd cause LA Marignon to simply evaporate on turn 1 with no start province assigned.

Re: Preponderance - Big Team Game! [starting!]
 

I found the problem with no VPs at 218, but I am clueless about no start for LA MAri. I triple checked the map file - all is fine. Huh. LEt's wait for llamabeast, again :(

Re: Preponderance - Big Team Game! [starting!]
 

DrP:

I think that if there were coastal provinces it would grab one, even if #specstart wanted it in other place. But as there are no coastal provinces on the map, it should start fine here. Same for LA Atlantis. I know LA MArignon worked on that map [before #specstart at least].
