Default Re: Star Trek Mod Question

There is nothing you can do for random games. Only in a game where you set up the map can this be done. Either use a random map and locate the appropriately named systems, or edit some system names. Then, place starting locations for each player, keeping track of which race gets which number. You then have to load all empires in the same order manually by loading their empire files. So if Sol has starting position 1, you have to load the Federation as the first empire. Make sure to set all of them to AI Controlled by editing the empire after loading the file. All except for the race you wish to play, of course.

Alternatively, you can use the included Star Trek Map. There is a readme file which lists the order that you need to manually load the empires in in the same method as stated above. Load empire file, edit empire, set to AI Controlled.
