MP question - why do we always start up adjacent?

Hi,

I am already more hooked on FFH, than I ever was on Civ1-4 and a great fan, so thanx a LOT you guys who made this happen!

The one thing that doesn't seem to work right in the game though, is when you start up a multiplayer game two persons. Every time -and I mean every time - me and my friend end up starting adjacent on a huge map with 8 other AI-civilisations. This has happened in our last around 30 games.

In the beginning we restarted, when we saw eachother before turn 30, but in the end we realized it made no difference. We have tried different slots in the gamemenu, but no difference.

Is this something that could be changed?

You could use the "Flavor Start" option offered by Jean Elcard's FlavourMod. Then it can still happen, but it isn't too likely

Thanks for the reply!

Can I add this mod and still play Fall From Heaven II? And if so how?

I have never heard of it before.

Yes, you can. It's a modmod for FfH 0.43h, which just adds an new custom game option called Flavour Start (the option xienwolf meant) and changes the behaviour of the End of Winter option a bit. It comes with an installer.
