OK I did search and I read pretty much every thread on the entire lobby setup stuff and I'm still baffled mostly because some of the posts are outdated, and the recent ones don't seem to do exactly what I need. So hopefully someone can help me out here:
I have a 3v3 map with 2 computers that spawn waves of units (think DOTA).
I would like to have Players 1, 2, and 3 (Team 1 of lobby) in the lower left corner of the map and Players 4, 5, and 6 (Team 2 of lobby) in the upper right corner of the map. Each player needs an SCV spawned for them.
Questions:
Do I have to use "Starting Locations" to define the starting locations for each player, or can I simply use points? Or is there even a difference?
Can anyone guide me in a way so that my lobby teams match my in game teams? I need to make sure that Players 1, 2 and 3 are in the lower left and players 4, 5 and 6 are in the upper right. Player 13 (Computer) matches Team 1 spawn and Player 14 (Computer) matches Team 2 spawn.
I have my game triggers already setup so that it picks each player in Team 1 or Team 2 (global variables, player group type) so now I simply need to make sure players are being placed properly.
