Giving it a test today. Sorry been down with Rigellian Flu last two weeks.
Going to see if a canon enormous map adds to the immersion (e.g. Warp speeds more akin to canon) etc

Try the patch I just uploaded, has some more improvements to the map editor.
My opinion would be for Option 2.Iceman wrote: ↑Thu Feb 02, 2023 8:01 pm So, I fixed a couple more things in the map editor, related to custom maps, and I need an opinion.
In the map options tooltip, how should the disabled options (those that are not valid due to the map being custom, marked red in the atatched pic) be handled?
1) keep the option name but remove the setting (will show as blank, or '-', or 'disabed', or 'n/a', or something else)
2) keep the option name and replace the setting with the word Custom
3) remove the option from the list, and display only the valid options
Except for the 1st option, GalaxySize, which should be displayed regardless, to indicate that it's a Custom map.
Currently, no, I don't think so. Maybe Misfire is listening and he'll add that option to MP
You can set the starting positions for the empires in the map, and set them as "random empire". Though the positions are fixed, who will start in each is not.I only found the option to create a map with the canon home quadrants.
