Use Notepad ++

Ok, i used Notepad++ and edited it to make it like this but STILL the game does not show any plaer spots.
Sorry for all this trouble, i'm just not sure what is wrong here.

Screenshot again.

I don't know $:\$ ... send me your map, if you can.

I see the problem

yaml files depend using tabs for indentation and not spaces - if you use spaces, it yells at you - as well you need to have certain nodes tabbed beneath their parents

I recommend opening an existing 6 player map (such as "east vs west 3") and copying out the Players: section from there. To be sure you are using tabs all over, in notepad++, press the ¶ icon (just under Uitvoeren on your toolbar) to see tab indentation (orange arrows) and line endings.

Here's an example of tabbing

As far as i can tell i have tabs at every point like shown in that image but i think i'l try and create a new mwp and do it right from the start.

i have found on windows 7 (32bit ultimate) you cannot use copy paste, on word pad or note pad (notepad++ probably works tho i havent tried it yet). copy paste works on windows xp 32 bit pro however. perhaps this is your problem.
