Attachments:

More Descriptions, Pictures, Features, What makes this different from the other Cat n Mice maps, Map needs a name too,Also your map file is named 123test....

>> Players Will Crash on Start of Game (Minerals Outside of Map Boundary)
--- Don't place stuff outside of the map limits and try to use unit snapping.
>> Not as many traps and/or secrets
--- Add more traps?
>> I guess having preplaced probes in "Cheese" areas is an interesting concept, but places like purple are unbalanced... GREATLY.
--- Oo, Balance Purple...
>> None of the units are renamed...
--- Name the units?
>> It would be wise to add 1 upgrade point to attack, just so the upgrades are visible and the player can make an informed decision.
--- Add 1 attack upgrade point to EVERYTHING belonging to P6.

This thread is unimpressive and unprofessional. (to put it nicely) Please read this and edit your topic to include more relevant information about the map. Particularily the "Tips and Suggestions" area.

Lol, don't chase him away, he's new.

There is a big difference between saying "post well" and "don't post". I am not saying the latter.

First off, we need to know what editor you are using. The most commonly used editor these days is Scmdraft 2. If you don't already have it, you can get it here.

Now, while you're learning you might want to use a more basic editor such as X-tra Editor. It's the most like regular Staredit, and is an excellent starting place, imo (in my opinion). You can get it here.

If you choose to jump start and go straight to Scmdraft 2 (which I suggest if you're a quick learner, otherwise stick with X-tra at first) then you'll want to go to Scenario>>Upgrade Settings. From there you can use the list to choose what upgrades you want to edit. If you select an upgrade you can see its costs (which are only editable if you unselect "Use Default Costs") and it's starting and maximum level. To add an upgrade point to attack, just change the starting level to 1. You may also choose to change some other things, but I'll leave you to figure that out.

If you choose to use X-tra editor, which I'd suggest if you learn at a slower pace, then you'll want to go to Player>>Settings. Then you'll want to select the upgrades tab. From here you have a similar list to the one in Scmdraft 2. You can select which upgrade you want to toy with and change it's starting level and maximum level. To change other settings about the upgrade you'll want to go to Scenario>>Upgrade Settings (as in Scmdraft 2) and toy with it there.

Have fun.

oo i know how to upgrade and stuff...lol but thanks anyways im using regular editor...

At the very least, I'd upgrade to X-tra editor if I were you. You won't see much serious map making done with Staredit, unless it's for a contest.

In our modern world, StarEdit as an editor is worthless for "Perfect" projects. Colours can't even be put in...
