Trick to make FARP Start as Neutral

Just noting this incase someone else searches for a solution to this...

I have a use case where I want some FARPS to start out with NEUTRAL ownership.  At first glance in the ME, and a cursory search of posts didn't provide a solution. This is what seems to have worked for me.

1. Go to coalition dialog and move Switzerland to Red or Blue.

2. Go set all the FARPs you want to start as NEUTRAL and set them to be owned by Switzerland.  

3. Go to coalition dialog and move Switzerland to NEUTRAL.  Save mission.

Those FARPs are now set to NEUTRAL and stay that way when the mission starts.  They can then be captured by RED or BLUE as normal.

[interesting if roundabout method described]

OR

1. Select ALL factions instead of COMBAT, Choose a neutral faction, place FARP on map

 

That might save you some time.
