Headquarters location

Custom script games do not allow me to place my own headquarters building and instead places it randomly. It will allow me to relocate but not to another city.

If I remember correctly this was an issue that was fixed early on. If I start a regular custom game it does let me place my own hq at the beginning. Also when I place it I can move it to a different city.

Actually, you will start the game with an existing headquarters building if the game's inflation setting is enabled. To place the headquarters building on your own, you should add a line in the script file that disables the inflation setting.

As for relocating a building, the game only allows you to relocate it within the same city, regardless of whether the game is using a script or not.
