Ringworlds and Map Editor

I have SE4 1.49, the editor is 1.41. Have generated a map with SE4, saved it, loaded the map with the Editor, added a Ringworld, changed it to Hydro/gas, saved it and finally started a game with it with an Ancient Empire race. The Ringworld shows the correct atmospehre and planet type.

Yeah, I've done it before, a long time ago. But it isn't working for me right now. Did you get rid of the star and replace it with a Ringworld, or did you simply add a Ringworld to the system?

i added a Ringworld on top of a star

... but a RW in an empty sector and a RW instead a sun works just fine for me too.

Well, i think your problem is that you try to CHANGE the atmosphere and planet type AFTER creating the RW, if you change it to the proper values while you add the RW it will work fine.

I changed it when I added the Ringworld.

Well, as i said it worked for me while i create the RW, it doesnt work if i try to change an existing RW.
If you send me the map and the locations to place a RW i will try to edit your map, i have Ancient Empire anyway.
