Shamefully simple questions...

Okay, my problems're these (and I think there's just something I'm missing):

When making a map you can choose on the player menu who's controlling who. But when assigned ie. the purple for user you really can't control it, it seems that player 1 is the only player that can be user controlled. This can be fixed with simple trigger to change the color of player one, just figuring if I'm (again) screwing something up.

And the second question is for the interface/console, no matter what race the player is, the interface is from humans. It's kinda stupid having few peons unemployed while the screens flashes the faces of peasants. And those tower like graphics and all seem to come with the deal... This I do not know how to fix. As I said, I think I'm missing something here. Interface stuff can be changed from under advanced and by changing every part of the console at a time, but is that really the only way?

check the image. the race you choose there will change the interface and the background sound of the player.

Nope.. Doesn't seem to do that. Or does it show on Test Map correctly?

Go to Scenario-> Force Properties and check "Use Custom forces" then "Fixed Player Settings". Now you can go back to "Player Properties" and set which race you are.

Don't use test map.

It sucks.
