Default Re: Cradle, 11 players, MA

Im having problems with the map. I am trying to have the whole map no start with the exception of 11 balanced starting positions. But when I test it out withh 11 human players the distribution is all wacky and some nations get placed ontop of others.

Anyone know why, or can anyone link me to a map editing tutorial?

Alright, clustering the start locations works pretty well. Now if only I could get LlamaServer to recognize my .map file as a valid file ...

I may be mistaken, but you may be limited, when using llamaserver, to the maps he has.
The reason i say that is I asked him if I could play a game using a map he did not have at a later date. and he said when i was ready to start the game, and it was tweaked the way i want it, he would add it to his list.

I think the reason he limited the maps was the amount of downloading involved. In any event, he will be back tomorrow and you can pm him then.

Gandalf has a server that is up and running, and you likely can play with your map on his server. That is tcp/ip however.

If you don't mind, MadFrancis, I'd like to drop off this game. I noticed there's another game starting where I can play Vanheim, the same nation I play in my first game.

I just started to think I might not have the time to get familiar with a new nation yet.

So if it's ok, could you just delete my freshly sent pretender?

If it's too much of a trouble or messes up the game somehow, I can try to hang in the game too, no problem.

I'm in that other game too, and with a nation I never played.
Well, I don't mind losing badly, and I know it's not everybody's case.

It's not the losing that I'm shunning, it's just the fact that I don't have the time to get familiar with another nation yet. Mictlan would've otherwise been an interesting nation to play... But still, when you got nine-to-five work and wife and kids at home, you don't really have the time to delve into nordic myths and the blood gods of the Aztecs all at the same time

Really sorry to have dropped out of the game, but I'm glad I made the decision before the game started!

I am willing to play Mictlan if you still have that last spot, but I won't be able to send in a pretender until this evening CST (GMT -6)
