Description

I'd like to propose adding "Player Placement" as a setting during Game Setup. Some new maps like Ambush and Frontier offer a variety of player placement strategies like: radial, stronghold, line and random. Some players seem to prefer random placement because of the uniqueness of the map and others find it unbalanced.

Since not all maps can realistically offer all possible placement types, I'd like to suggest that maps can whitelist their possible starting setups in their JSON file like: "placements": ["radial", "stronghold"]

I think the GUI should also have an option for "Map Default" since some maps like Hell's Pass randomly pick a player placement type.
