Suggestion

When I have been able tp play Elemental without running into bugs I hav eenjoyed it. I know stardock is working hard on fixing these issues, I read the "Stardock Game Roadmap 2011" and can better understand the situation with the Elemental Engine.

Here are some of my suggestions

Allow for custom Maps in Elemental to be hosted (I cannot seem to find a way to place my custom map in a folder so it shows up when selecting map) and Allow any size map to be played online. I can't even get my map i made to show up in a singleplayer "New Game" option.

Allow Custom Empires AND Soverigns to be allowed into online games AND allow people hosting to "tick" off a ooption to allow Custom Soverigns/Factions/Races when hosting a game online.

Please do not remove Custom Soverign/Factions when updating OR put a warning in "This patch will remove Custom Soverigns/Factions, Please make sure you write down your Custom FAction/Soverign info before installing this patch."

Thank you

elemental

That ticked me off when I upgraded to 1.1. Luckily I had saved mine a day earlier.

Regardless, move them custom stuff you want to keep to the Mods folder and it should be safe and still available in-game.

Make sure you have 'Use Mods' checked in options. Then your custom maps should be usable.

I cannot find my custom kingdom nor my soverign inside the game folder where are they located? It seems that the last patch did not effect them, still this information of where they are located would help.

Still cannot load the map in a "new Game". I can my maps in "C:\Users\Monsta\Documents\My Games\Elemental\Maps" but still they don't show up ingame at the menu screen after i click New Game, then Load Map.

And I can only see Small or Tiny maps when hosting a game. Is this always goign to be like this because I would like to play a long game and save it like in Sins of a solar Empire?
