Staredit Network > Forums > SC1 UMS Mapmaking Assistance > Topic: Need help with starforge [Unit problems]
I have this problem...When i started creating an UMS map everything was fine, then i reached my unit limit (so i made it higher in options section) now i am at the end of my map, and this happens: i launch starcraft to test my map, and triggers are messed up because there are a lot of units missing in game. WTF???? with "black sheep wall" cheat i open fog and in 2 levels of my map there are almost no units (90% gone). Why does this happen [in options unit number is 10000, so i think it should work] Is it buged or if anyone has any ideas please help. Thank you!

Starcraft itself has a unit&sprite limit ( about 1650), no matter what you set in staredit.
None.
1700 is the actual unit limit I believe, the actual sprite limit is 499.
None.
The unit limit is 1700, because of fixed LocalID RAM allocation, and the sprite limit is really complicated, but it's something in the thousands.
None.
I mean, the basic sprite limit, like doodad sprites.
None.
Use a spawning system instead and create the units when you actually need to use them.
None.
Ty for info 
None.

NudeRaider -- blessed innocent soul knows nothing of the strife we had before EUDs were discovered

DarkenedFantasies -- Probably just didn't care. For example, at some point before release, they've updated the graphics of some of the Protoss buildings (Forge, CyberCore, Citadel, Observatory, Arbiter Tribunal), but instead of properly re-rendering them with edited 3D models, they did crappy copy-paste jobs on the rendered graphics.

Ultraviolet -- I suppose we'll likely never know, but my guess would be that they already saw it operating successfully and there was no monetary incentive to finish the original work. And the dev cycle in old school Blizzard was so hectic, it's possible it just got forgotten about after the original game got released. Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it. And it's not like they remade the original MPQs, they just made new ones for BW specifically[2026-6-21. : 4:26 am]
Oh_Man -- so that makes me think maybe the theory they are unfinished is not true and its a deliberate design decision, coz why not finish them wen ur making brood war?
