camera starting position

[Robby Mac]

Hi all--

I have a question about modding. How do you change where the "camera starting position" is during a campaign? Sometimes the NR starts at MonCal, sometimes the IR starts at Byss, and different campaigns have different locations.

If I'm working on a mod, how to you adjust this number? I'm sure it's in an XML file somewhere, but for the life of me I can't find where.

Thanks!

i am curious about the in game cinematic cam. It tends to zoom on the ass of units lol is there a way to control it?

In a GC the starting camera position is controlled by the
<Home_Location> factionname, planetname</Home_Location>
The selected faction will have it's camera zoomed to the planet you given
About the cinematic camera, I am not sure if that is possible
