Hey there,

I've been working on a multiplayer campaign for the last few months. WIth my latest map I've run into a bit of a snag, though. When I launch it with more than one person, Starcraft closes. I'm presuming it closes for all people. I have no idea why this is happening and I don't think it's happened with any map I've worked with before. It seems to mostly work fine in singleplayer. Please help, thanks.


EDIT:
So far I've figured out the problem isn't with every slot or multiplayer as a whole... it only occurs if someone is in slot 3. If they are, then the map kicks everyone out of SC. Slots 1,2 and 4 all work fine though, so I have no idea what's up with that.

Edit: Okay, after I figured out it was player 3, I deleted everything player 3 had (units, not triggers) and placed it all elsewhere. Now, everything seems to work. I can only guess that somehow the buildings at the top of the map were going off the map somehow thus making everyone crash. I've never had that bug before.

Yeah, you have to be careful when placing units near the map border.

The last row of tiles (very south of the map) is unbuildable. And each of the 2 south corners has 5 tiles in the 2nd row that are unbuildable. This is because the interface is overlapping into the map.

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.

Ultraviolet shouted: Mr.BurnLiquid actually yeah though I wasn't really saying it to narc on you. 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.

Mr.BurnLiquid shouted: Ultraviolet Thanks; I'm new to the site and a Spanish speaker. I must have missed the part where it was prohibited—I'll change it now.
I invite you to try out a mission I'm modifying from *StarCraft Reversed*; I'm trying to make it more playable and challenging.
