I am trying to make a version of BGH where me and a friend can start always at teh same location against 6 computers. When I updated the map, whenever I start the game, it ends in Draw immediately as the computers are not appearing. Does anyone know what the issue is? I checked and re-did the starting locations. If I start it as top vs bottom, the computers appear where they should randomly Thanks!

The issue was that apparently having computers set to "Random" doesn't actually make them create a nexus/hatchery/cc + workers in a UMS game. So I changed everyone to user select. You can still set them to random, but you have to do it manually. I also added in a few quick insane AI scripts that detect what race the computer is and runs the appropriate AI script for you. In UMS, computers won't do anything if you don't specifically give them an AI script. You can change the AI script difficulties if you want. Insane is the hardest option that comes default with SC.

P.S. Unfortunately without predefined races, SC removes preplaced units and buildings. So the Xel'Naga Temple and Psi Disrupter you preplaced won't show up in game.

Thanks a lot! I hope this didn't take you too much time

That's fixed easily enough. Give it to one of Player 9 - 11. Can even give it to the real player once the game started, if that's necessary.

Thank you both. By the way is there a reason for me not to be able to open the new map with SCMDraft anymore? As it gives me an error (hr = 0x80004005) when trying to open, as I wanted to see what you changed so I'd know for the future. Thanks.

You're probably using the wrong version of Scmdraft 2. It's confusing because the latest 'official' build is not the true latest build. The latest build is an alpha build. Download here: http://www.stormcoast-fortress.net/Irregularies/?action=DownloadAlpha&ID=2020.06.24(W)

Thanks again, much appreciated.
