Start Locations Suffering from ads?

With the new patch is there any way to place or even influence start locations? I made a map and I wanted to start in a specific spot. I only had 8 starting locations, yet I had to sit there for 30 min restarting to get where I wanted to. It would only cycle through 2-3 of the starting locations. Then I edited the map again, and it would cycle through a different 2-3 starting locations. What gives! It doesn't seem to be random, or cycling, but rather designed for max anoyance.

Not with the editor at least. (You can use CPT.)

Did you have the linked starting positions on?

CPT? I tried with it on, with it off. With all random civs, or with specific civs. Then I tried cobo's of dif civs. Tried about every combo posible. Sat there for half an hour trying to just start in one of 8 spots. No luck!!

This is something that we've all been clamouring for ever since the game first came out (that and a mini-map in the editor). After 3 patches (with a 4th on the horizon) and still no sign of it!

CPT = Civ Placement Tool.

It's a little program Gramphos? developed in order to place civs on a map from a saved game.

It'd be more convenient if start locations could be set in the start-up screen.
