Its wired, I tried this yesterday and I got the exact same start as Australia. I mean, I did not play more than 10 turns (I though i'd wait till YNAEMP was updated as I liked it more without having to be limited to 8 civs.) but I had the exact same resource locations as well (so that where I feel it comes down to being the same star location.) So you might have been right about them changing it or adding true TSL. Either way though, relay enjoying your sires so far, can't wait for the next video.
