That's a little fuzzy. It seems to me to be kind of random. You will have one Homeworld at the spot specified in the editor, but you can't specify additional homeworlds. Sometimes they'll be in different systems, sometiems all in one system. I don't know how it decides.

Yep, probably easier to just make some map modifications and adjust team/empire starting positions to put one team on the left side of the map and the other on the right side.
|
I tryed to suprise everyone by putting the teams across the top and bottom. There should have been at least 5 systems between the two teams. I can't wait to see the map.
I'll do left to right or would you like to try more systems.? |

Re: Challenge Match
It seems everytime I get involved ina map-making discussion I confuse things. So, I'll defer to the others for any further help...  .

Re: Challenge Match
After reading these Posts I think too we should reset the game.
Btw I have noticed that the amount of free scans vary at each time. Sometimes I got one system scanned and sometimes five systems scanned. But this happen only when I have more than one homeworld. Is that just random or what?

Suprise is good. I don't think we need more systems total, just more between us. Doesn't matter to me if it's left/right, top/bottom or diagonal.

Re: Challenge Match
I found the mistake.
I forgot to set a starting point for Player 4 so they ended up in the Norths backyard.

Arn't you glad I don't write code for Microsponge?
