Why is my map crashing all of a sudden!

So i've been working on this map of mine for a while now, it last worked about a week ago. When I went to test the map today its been crashing right after I hit the start button in the mission breifing, I've tried it 6x now and I can't seem to find any reason that its crashing for! I haven't placed any illegal sprites anywhere that I know of or any units off the map, I only have a total of 4 triggers so far so idk what the problem is. My screen goes black and it says starcraft has encountered an error and needed to close.

Too many doodads? Sprites? Units?

Doodad Count: 451
Sprite: 346
Units: 1300

Halp!

Too many sprites and doodads.
To many sprites or doodads won't crash the game. If you go over 500 sprites they will just not appear in game and you can place thousands of doodads.

I do stuff and thingies... Try widening and reducing the number of small nooks and crannies to correct the problem.

after deleting all doodads, the map works.

Look for any sprites you may have accidentally placed. I once made a map where some sprites crashed the game, even though I never intentionally placed ANY sprites in the game. Save your map in numbered versions. That way you can go back to the last playable version and see what you may have changed.



Win by luck, lose by skill.

Ultraviolet -- That's strange, it looks like you targeted the base image file (sometimes people make the mistake of just using the imgur page link which doesn't work for embedding) but it still didn't work it sounds like.

ManCubuS -- Used : " [img=https://i.imgur.com/gpOjTuD.jpeg] "

ManCubuS -- Even tried with imgur, doesn't attach.

ManCubuS -- I should try a workaround, thanks! Sadly imgur is blocked in my country for some unknown reason.

NudeRaider -- I think SEN has trouble with https or hotlinking is forbidden. It certainly is nothing about the size, it just fails to get any size. You can get it working if you use imgur and include the actual image link for the img tag. Like this: [img=https://i.imgur.com/ddYqXZa.jpeg]

ManCubuS -- Hey fellas! Anyone knows why when I try to upload an image it says "failed to get image size"? I even tried making it so small. Imgur isn't working here and I tried postimg no luck.
