hey guys, this is my first map (that i have pretty much completed) since I stopped making maps 14 years ago. this map is a golem stype map with random heroes like lottery defense/music defense and a few quest like poker defense. I can't get this damn thing balanced. It is nearly impossible to kill the other bases. overall heroes seem balanced, so do the ghost (constantly spawning). But I just can't find a balance with ending the game. it just goes on forever....... any advice would be great. i am getting burned out quick.

We do a little trolling

I've attached the spreadsheet I'm making for my own map, so you can see what I'm trying. Perhaps you could modify it to suit your map as well.

Thank you sir. I will take a look at this when I have a few minutes.

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.
