Hello, me again.
I am a little bit annoyed whenever im testing a map/triggers. Cause after i started SC - "played" the map - made changes in SCMDraft - and save them - every second or third time im trying to save the edited map it says me that im not able to save the map. I guess it has to do something with temporary access of SC to the map.

So i could either save the map under a new name or restarting SC. Maybe this sound a bit lazy but is there any possibility do not do so? (sometimes im only adjusting little things so that even 3 or 4 savenames are not enough while SC is running)

You just have to leave the game in SC. Once you're in or past the score screen, you'll be able to save the map just fine.

Yea Roy i know that im not able to save a map while playing it. But the issue is there after playing the same map 2 or three times even after the score screen - doenst matter if im on bnet or testing in LAN

The 1.18 patch introduced this problem. There's nothing you can do except either map with 1.16 or wait until Blizzard fixes it.

Yeah, recently figured that out. The most annoying bug in the world. It also appears that the current version of SC locks the map after the second time that you play it. That's really dumb :hurr:



Some.

You can also close and re-open StarCraft to unlock the map.

Yes, Mimose mentioned that in the OP already. ;)
