Locking CS Locations...

Thanks! Sorry if this is a noob question, but can we do multiplayer with scenarios?
Basically the situation is that we'd like to play Earth map. We'd also like to have CS's. But we hate that they spring up all over the place and always in the way! So we want to edit Earth map to put them out of the way, like on islands like Cuba for example. If you have a better way to accomplish this goal, please let me know!
I heard that playing scenarios in hotseat is possible with BNW, but I haven't checked it myself (and I don't have time to check it now, as I'm just leaving for a vacation trip ) I don't know about online multiplayer, if it doesn't work then you can try the Giant Multiplayer Robot.

If you want any random city state to appear at a fixed location you can do it as a map, if however you want a named CS to start at a fixed location you need to do it as a scenario
Thank you both for your help. This is what I would like to do. It doesn't matter that they are named correctly, just that they always appear within the slots we've designated.
If I designated 20 locations for CS in world builder, I would assume that when I play that map and choose, say 7 CS, those 7 CS would populate at random within those 20 locations?

You would think/hope so, but you'd be wrong. It will always use the last 7 locations (counting left to right, top to bottom) - see post #2 in this thread http://forums.2kgames.com/showthread.php?108317-MOD-Maps-Random-Start-Position
Bummer! Thanks for the link, the mod looks interesting.
By the way, how do I randomize resources on a custom map? Each time we load earth map in MP, the resources are always in the same spots! Highly annoying...
