Problem with map editor.

[McGravin]

Does anyone know exactly how to add ruins and unique ruins to planets with the map editor?
When I do, the ruins icon and text show up on the planet window, but nothing happens if the planet is colonized.

When the map editor generates a random map, planets with ruins show them as the "Combat Movement" ability. This makes no sense, and you can't set a planetary ability to Combat Movement, anyway.

Been awhile since i did this so I might be wrong.

When adding them manually you have to assign the planet a value. A ruin and how many techs or specified unique tech number.
You do this by using the drop down menues when creating the planet.

(Bad explanation but I don't have the editor infront of me, if no one comes up with a better explanation I'll put up abetter answer tomorrow).

About the auto generated maps I have no clue why that happen.

[McGravin]

Exactly. That method completely doesn't work. I said that. The ruins appear to be there, but when you colonize the planet, nothing happens.

Looking again, I can't find any mention of the map editor on Malfador.Com, anymore. What's up with that?

[Ruatha]

Ok.
You set numbers aswell? for the numbers of techs to be found?
It worked for me the Last time I tried.

[McGravin]

Yes.

The randomly placed ruins work fine, but they are labled "Combat Movement" under the planet's abilities. The manually placed ruins show up but do not work.

Ok, then I'm at a loss to why it happens, sorry.
