Setting Scenario Properties

In the Scenario menu, select Properties to open the Scenario Properties dialog. The name and description you provide in this dialog are used to describe the map to players considering creating or joining a game with this map.

Name

You can enter a name for the map in this field. The name will appear as part of the map information display in Starcraft. By default, the scenario name is set to “Untitled Scenario.”

Note: The scenario name is not the same as the map’s filename. The filename is set when the map is saved. For more information, see the Saving a Map section.

Description

You can enter a brief description of your map in this field. The description will appear as part of the map information display in Starcraft. By default, the scenario description reads “Destroy all enemy buildings.”

If you want people to play the map using the “Use Map Settings” game type, it is recommended that you put “(USE MAP SETTINGS)” as the first line of the description. For more information about game types, see the Game Type section.
