[0.12.22] No alien bases spawning on the north side of base

[TheClaw]

Hello, I have been playing this map for some time now and somehow there are no alien bases spawning to the north of my base, a quick search did not yield any results so here you go:



I am not sure what generation settings I used, I know for sure that the bases are small and I think the freq was low (this due to the poor end game alien wiping options)

I'm pretty sure that normal at your side of evolution, they are probably right outside of the fog of war..

just continue playing and soon enough it will look like this.

I am not sure, I know it ends like that but there are just no bases to the north after 12hrs of playtime.

Another map I play looked like this:



Here it was "evenly spread". Have you ever encountered this in the early evolution?

Can you upload the savegame for this map?
And are you using any mods?

You can check the generation settings (and the seed) of an existing map by doing the following:
Select the map in the 'Load game' dialog, then click on the 'Map Exchange String' button in the bottom left corner.
Copy that exchange string by selecting it with the mouse and pressing Control+C.
Then go to 'New game' and paste the map exchange string into the text field at the bottom (Control+V). All the map settings and the map seed will be filled out with the original map settings.

I am not using any mods. I did alter some oil wells to contain some more oil *busted *
I used the following lua command:/c game.players[1].selected.amount=<numeric_input>"
The save file:https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/342 ... omente.zip

the generation settings:

You did not explore enough. "Very big" starting area is... very big.

Code: Select all

/c game.player.force.chart(game.player.surface, {{x = -1500, y = -1500}, {x = 1500, y = 1500}})

The biters expanded more aggressively in the south, but they started just as far away in all directions.

Ah, interesting. I suppose I also started to the south of my spawn.

My bad, sorry for the trouble
