The Cult( how do they start 6 years after?

[mikejohnson1]

I want to edit a faction that starts on planet after the Unity explodes. The Cult does this because Cha Dawn is born on Planet. How can you make your own faction that can also start on Planet. Is there something in faction.txt that I missed? Or is it something in the games programming that is unique to the Cult.

Seems to be hard-coded in the programming -- I copied the Planet Cult files over a player-added faction, but it still started with the "you escaped the Unity" text when I played it, and the game-supplied Cult didn't arrive until later.

When I then tested playing against the cult-clone faction it as both the University player and as the game-supplied Cult player, it started in the same year I did.
