Galaxy Forge - How can I get Militia

How can i get militia on a planet in Galaxy Forge?

Every time i edit a planet and use the group manager and the group editor to put militia or some ships on a planet, which is not a homeplanet of a player, it's not working. Can somebody help me and tell me the "trick"?^^

You cannot add militia with just galaxy forge because there is no "RandomMilitia" owner option. You have to save your completed map in galaxy forge, then open the .galaxy file in notepad, find your groups of militia and manually change the Owner section to "RandomMilitia".

Just because I know it works, you may want to look at a already made custom map like mine that uses a lot of custom militias to see how the file looks in notepad.

Ok, thank you for your answer. I'll test your suggestion.

But it's sad, that something like this can't be done by the editor itself.

it is also possible to have a larger militia that does NOT own the planet by spawning the ships in the planet (right mouse click on the planet), but it is slightly easier with goafan's suggested method

Thank you, harpo.

That is much easier than the other way. Now i only need to give a planet a few templates with strong militia. That is all, that i wanted :thumbsup:
