Help? I guess.

Everything is set up properly in my new map, but somewhere along the line a start position got hosed up and I can't find the wayward point to fix it. Then again, that may not even be the problem at all. I'd appreciate it if somebody (I'm not picky - really!) could take a look at it and see what they can do.

The issue at hand...
Interesting looking map
looks like start position 2 was messed up. Load up the map settings menu (Ctrl-R) then go the the start positions page and select each position in turn from the drop down menu. You don't have to do owt with them; just select then move to the next.
Once you've done that; save the game and exit to Desktop. Restart the game and Position 2 should be fixed
Now... I'm assuming this is a 4 player map since I found only four points. If so then you'll need to set the remaining start positions to "Empty" (in the same menu as above - go to each unued slot and change them from "player" to "empty")
Something slightly different
Just one more thing, regarding map depth. I noticed that a few map objects are quite deep down into space. You will find that by loading them up in a live game, any objects beyond a certain depth (towards and away from the camera), will disappear totally. Don't ask me why; it's just one of those things.
It depth is different for certain object so just use a bit of trial and error and you'll soon get a feel for how far you can use the depth settings.
