Force Player Start Positions

I am sure this has probably been asked many times before but I cannot seem to find it in the search results or the tuturials... most likely a problem between the keyboard and chair but w/e.

I have built a custom map with several star systems and I want certain players to start at certain stars.  I have made the players the owners of the worlds in question however when the game loads it seems to just randomly assign the planets out.

Is this possible?  If so, how?

Thanks in advance!

it is possible to assign the start planet when you edit the map in galaxy forge. you have to set the "randomize positions" to false in the map then each player will start in the player start assigned to the player number. the randomize positions is good for testing all the start positions in the map, but might not be needed when playing online or inlan

also you could edit the map in notepad and change the TRUE to FALSE in the line starting with randomizeStartingPositions

hope this helps

Should have known the option was right under my nose.
