Standard Broodwar Staredit freezes around one part of the map in

Quite recently, i was making more and more triggers in a certain area of the map.
The area in question is the heavy red concentration of command centers. (added only to make obvious where the issue lies)

I was working on this area in particular, when after the 10th or so triggers in this area, staredit freezes on me.
The screen, no matter where i moved it. ended up like the ending of solitaire.
Since then, i've tried removing, deleting the triggers and locations at this area in particular.
but it still continues to solitaire freeze up staredit every. single. time.

It only does this in location view in this particular area only.
Everything else works perfectly fine.

Any suggestions?

well. dunno why it froze on normal staredit. i simply loaded the map on scm draft 2.
reloaded it again on normal staredit.
and now it works again.

so for now i'm just messing around with either one. primarily with staredit since i've already used it for so long.

whoever can. can close this or lock whatever.

Triggers themselves aren't matter there. This map has corrupted strings. Hopefully SCMD fixed this, but be careful, the problem might occure any time later. This is nasty. I suggest you to use only SCMD to avoid string corruptions in the future.



Some.

I invite you to try out the map I modified. I don't have the creativity to create maps from scratch, but I do have the know-how to modify existing ones; my project is to tweak community campaigns (specifically those with errors—to make them playable.

It just caught me off guard because I don't usually see it (because it's against the rules) "The avatar may not be bigger than 150x150 pixels". Kinda silly that it relies on users to be well behaved rather than just limiting the dimensions on uploads :lol:
Now that I wanted to change my avatar, the error image is showing up, haha.

I invite you to try out a mission I'm modifying from *StarCraft Reversed*; I'm trying to make it more playable and challenging.
