I made a few changes to the .biq file--lessened corruption by 25% (I am running C3C 1.00), localized certain city names (Rome now = Roma, etc), switched some civ colors, and replaced the English Man-O-War with the Redcoat (5.6.1) from the Napoleonic conquest. I threw it together as a scenario to protect the original conquests.biq file.
After all those changes, I created a small block of land and threw in a few enemy units to test how balanced the stats of my new unit were. Once I was satisfied, I cleared the map, saved, and now whenever I try to start the scenario the game will error out because there are not enough player starting locations. I would like the scenario to generate a random map depending on player input just as would happen when you start an epic, unmodified game. How do I do that?
Some somewhat unrelated questions--
1.) is there any way to stop the ATARI movie from playing everytime the game is launched to shorten the time spent between starting the game and getting to the main menu? it was kind of annoying during my testing.
2.) for some reason, the Help popup in the editor won't show up for me anymore. How do I fix that?
TIA
