i fixed the player position problem by going edit-players-player # and then set the team index to the team number that i intended the in game players to be.

i hope this helps anyone with the same problem.

i logged in just to "LOL".

While i am here, i have a few questions, if you could help me out.  Dont think starting a new thread is neccessary, as this one is titled appropriately.  i am making a map with Galaxy forge, and the beginners guide has only helped such a small amount.

1.  What is the difference between "Weighted" planet types and non weighted?

2.  Is there any way to change the vertical height of a solar system?  If not, what variable determines its set height within a game?  i notice that some systems are lower or higher relative to others, while most are on the same spatial level.

3. Why is there a setting for "RandomNonGreenStar"?  Do green stars have magical properties?  Or do the devs just despise the colour?

4. *Reserved for future inquiries*

*EDIT* 5. And why do some of these smilies look like they are on methamphetamines(sp?where is spellcheck?the sins windows theme,ironically,gives white help bubbles white text.  )    ex.      (<LOL)            

Thanks in advance for any assistance scribed into these pages.  Also, sorry if this post is out of place in this out-of-place thread.  It is just that the in-forum google search wierded me out, and i have become lost since using it.

Green stars do exist...Blue, Green, White, Yellow, Orange, Red (in that order from hottest to coolest) are broad  color categories (to keep it simple).

If you want to get fancier, google/wiki "star spectral classes".

Thanks for the weighted answer--was wondering too.
