Started off in the middle of a forest with no nearby resources. Seems like the trees were favoured over my fertile land....

I got the same thing, only with Pariden, I started with a /city/ in the center of a forest and I couldn't build anything.
Mapscripts and start locations are still weak.
My all-time worst, I started on a effectively a 2-tile island. 1 empty square, 1 food resource, separated from the rest by a narrow strait.
In other reports of bad starting locations the developers have asked for the debug.err to be provided, so that they can see the random seed used for map generation.
I should also add; in most of my games, even when I have a decent start, at least 1-2 AIs have started without a food tile and so have been crippled.
Will note that in future. How does one get a debug.err if the game doesn't crash?
Read this thread herehttps://forums.elementalgame.com/364285the part your looking for is"First and foremost, each time you run the game it will generate a log named debug.err. This file will always be located at My Documents\My Games\Elemental"
