Get SCMDraft II. This is downloadable from "www.stormcoast-fortress.net".
Open up your map. Go to Scenario -> Place Map Revealers -> Player # or All Players.
The only problem is that in some maps it reveals the whole map but the very left side, this is easily fixable by just manually placing some map revealers on the left side.
In some maps, you get to the 1650 unit max, and this can be caused early by all those revealers for all of the players. Simply place them for one computer player, and enable vision to him for all the players you want to see the whole map using the AI Script "Turn On Shared Vision for Player # (Computer)" under the players you want to be able to see the whole map. It will take a few seconds for it to be enable, but it will work.
If that is hard to understand..
Say you're making a Defense. Player 7 is the computer that spawns units.
Make SCMDraft II place map revealers for Player 7.
------------------------------------
--- Players
- The Players that you want to see the whole map.
--- Conditions
- Always
--- Actions
- Run AI Script: Turn On Shared Vision for Player 7.
------------------------------------
There you go. Remember, that trigger is only if there are a lot of units in your map, and you want to reduce the amount of units.

NimoStar -- the thing with the "*12" thing is completely misleading. The AI isn't using two control groups, it can use each of those actions to command a single unit individually and issue different commands to each single unit.[08:06 am]
NudeRaider -- NudeRaiderNudeRaider shouted: Oh_Man Artosis hasn't caught on how devastating the perfect focus fire is. With the mutas he was like "the Mutas always seem to have less hp than against a human". But he didn't notice that the flock he had selected always just had one muta that was hurt. Same with the wraiths here. He's talking about how valks+wraith is gonna destroy Pluto's valks, then 5s later he's dumbfounded the human player's air is just gone and he never figured out why. And for some reason didn't even think to go back and look at the battle.

Vrael -- perhaps there is a small professional player trapped in a box in the server rack where pluto is running? hmm?
