Is there any way to start next to friend?

[Tapio]

I'd like to lock me and my friend to team and start near each other so we could really cooperate. Is there any way to do that? Modifying starting locations to map or something like that?

Doesn't have to be that complex, depending on how flexible you are. Certain map types have a setting when playing in multiplayer about group together I'm pretty sure. Remember seeing it on Ring, which is an interesting map type for a game or two anyway.

(don't kill me if this is wrong, but 99% sure I saw that option)

Think you get this option on East vs West, and North vs South. Otherwise if you're playing against ais you can just restart until you spawn close.
