I gotta make dinner mate, but as far as the computer players go if your trying to make it so they don't show on the map setup screen then set their controller to "none" (Mind you doing this will deactivate their AI). As far as how to make it so they are on the map setup screen but they are greyed out so you can't modify them I'm not quite sure, but I have seen it done on other maps.
Then what about fixed the User Slots to where they can't select their colors, or races or Damage%, they have to move to different slots to change their colors
Create a new thread for this, it'll attract more users to the title and lack of responses and views. Also, do use your edit post tool; no more double/triple posting. For whatever reason it offends people and you'll get a strike against you.
I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
