Does anybody know how to quickly compute or determine the number of CPs for a particular faction there are on the map?
I'm ready to carry the units over to the next scenario but need to know - accurately - the CP count for each allied faction. I don't trust counting them by hand - there has to be a better way using the editor.

Hard Question -- How many CPs on the map per faction?

Re: Hard Question -- How many CPs on the map per faction?
There was an option I've used multiple times.
It would allow you to cash in on-map core units with the corresponding values in CPs and RPs (for single-player mode).
'Allow Custom Starting Force' is available under the Settings tab in the editor.
When you select a scenario for singke play there's a similar box you can check.
Unfortunately It was broken in v8.0 I think. I reported it as a gameplay bug, but it was not fixed in 8.6.1
Maybe we should form a coalition and lean heavily on Shards...

Dayam! That woulda worked...
Shards, we are leaning heavily upon you. Arithmetic gives me a headache!
grrr!

Even being able to print or extract the list of units would be helpful.

Is this the one that essentially sells all the core units that are on the map at the start?
Re: Hard Question -- How many CPs on the map per faction?
Yes, you select wether you you want this to happen by ticking the box in the scenario selection. (I'd add a screenshot, but I'm waiting for the AI to finish an obviously tricky turn 
)
it is a very handy designer tool and I'd guess a fun option for the player as well.
I think it can be improved upon by adding this to the campaign scenarios deploymentphase as well.
Designers could offer the player historical ready-made cores and the player may decide to use those or roll-you-own.

And if you tick that box at the moment, nothing happens?

Yes, it used to be somewhere under Scenario Settings.

This is on the fix list now. I'd project a fix for early next year.
