Having same problem here. It keeps moving my player 1 spawn point. Usually to the southern most area of map.

Same here. When I set down spawn points in the editor, it will often shuffle them e.g: point 3 becomes point 1, etc.


Even if I get a configuration I like and save, when I go play my map, I still spawn on the wrong point, and when I come back to editor, I find the spawn points mixed up again.

I'm having the same problem as well. The map really depends on the spawnpoints since each player gets his own 'continent', which is impossible with this bug.

Same.

This is the reason I also didn't join the map contest.

I have 3 complicated scenario maps all ready (days and days of tweaking and fiddling the scenery), that hinge on the player starting at ONE specific point. Obviously that's not happening.

I had a rare night off again, so I just tried to fix them, but still, nope. No option to set them to either random or fixed.


Really what this issue needs is much more control in the start location menu. If you want to create really advanced scenario maps, you may want to also set exactly what leader starts where, a bit like in civilisation, where you have scenarios that offer 3 competing rulers, each of whom always starts in a historically somewhat accurate location.


But at the very, absolute minimum, one specific spawn point (presumably nr 1) must be fixable as the player start location. This is violently breaking my own personal enjoyment of the map creation tool.
