How do you place players on the maps in the editor???

[iceboy]

I see where you select no start but I just want to place the players starting points myself. How do you go about doing this?

It's in the doc.

#specstart

From oraniawar.map, an example of giving Abysia (nation 0) some provinces:

-- Abysia starts with 5 provinces
#specstart 0 208
#victorypoints 208 1
#land 195
#nostart 195
#owner 0
#defence 10
#land 198
#nostart 198
#owner 0
#defence 10
#fort 1
#temple
#land 223
#nostart 223
#owner 0
#defence 10
#land 214
#nostart 214
#owner 0
#defence 10

Where can I find out how to mod and make maps in general???

Paint and Wordpad.

Anyway, Iceboy, you should read the documentation before asking...

Edit again: The documentation is in \Dominions 2\doc\
