Allegiances 2 (Large,Team-Based Game, PLAYING)

[DrPraetorious]

Vel, are you sure you used the right map file?

[Velusion]

Um.... not positive... thought I had downloaded it...

Did I use your original 6-player one?

[DrPraetorious]

The image file is correct but I'm in the wrong start location and I don't have an empty slot in my capital, leading me to think you might have used Alleg_Yes.map, which doesn't have the start locations assigned to individual players.

Do you still have all of the pretender files we uploaded?

Because if I'm not 2 provinces from my ally, this will be a major problem .

Check the .map file you used to make sure it's the right one (Alleg_Y2.map) and if it isn't, you should probably restart and rename the game.

[Velusion]

I can start it and restart it. I should (hopefully) still have all the pretender files - provided the server doesn't host.

[DrPraetorious]

Well, don't let it host until we've figured this out?

[Velusion]

ok... I'm a bit confused. The .map file I'm using has the following header:

#dom2title Alleg_Yes
#imagefile Alleg_Y2.rgb

and the following start locations:

#start 28
#start 48

#start 18
#start 59

#start 127
#start 120

#start 176
#start 209

#start 219
#start 187

#start 118
#start 141

#start 187
#start 219

Is this wrong?

[DrPraetorious]

Yeah, that's wrong.

It should be:
#dom2title Alleg2_Final
#imagefile Alleg_Y2.rgb

and the start locations should be:
#specstart 19 28
#setland 28
#knownfeature 149
#knownfeature 149
#knownfeature 149
#specstart 8 48
#setland 48
#knownfeature 149
#knownfeature 149

etc...

The corret map file is attached somewhere up the thread but I'll just e-mail it to you.
