#1 Starting Locations

If you want to make a map with only 4 players, you have to turn off the extra starting positions. To do this, hit Ctrl-R, and for Starting Locations 5 throught 8, on the right-hand side of the box, change SP/MP Choosable to empty. The extra start locations at the center of the map are these extra slots.


#2 Asteroids

EDIT: Never mind, didn't play with all the buttons yet.

and the asteroid field box / the asteroid field path won't work in Fleet Operations
but to save time and performace there are now so called "asteroid sets" which are complete ateroid fields you can place, which allow you to fill large asteroid areas in no time. cause armada has far less objects to calculate even fluidic (the slowest map in beta1.1) should become playable
