Hello

You want to make a fastest map??
Use SCMdraft and do these:
  • Go to Options
  • Units
  • Make sure that the "Require Mineral Distance" isn't checked
  • Make sure the "Allow Stack" is checkec
  • Now place Minerals, startlocations and Gas-Geysires as you want

hope that helps :)

Thanks!!
no problem :)
and please: when you got more questions make a topic with at least 5.... many topics for single questions which are basic knowledge and can be found in the readme.txt are annoying

Maybe you'd rather use this version from the developer's site. It's the most recent, has more features and most importantly is more stable.

it's rather inconvenient actually, as it requires you to transfer it to Custom Score which might even interfere with what you're measuring. But IIRC you can also use EUDs to display it which by now could actually be somewhat convenient.

Yeah, I've noticed it, but it raised a couple of relevant questions and kept the ad to the signature so if someone were to engage with the topic it could be a net positive which is why I kept it. We're not necessarily anti-bot, just anti-spam. Thanks to Symmetry who realized my hope. :)
