melee map? Why is this in The modding section? and don't players usually DON'T show up when it's in melee mode? Are you saying the 4 peons and the cc/nexus/hatchery won't show up? or are you talking about pre placed units? Theirs a way to do it for melee maps but I can't remember how its done. I think you have to give it to p12 or something. idk.



None.

Define "won't show up". Do you mean that preplaced units won't show up for P1? You can't do this in melee mode. The closest you can get is preplacing unit sprites for P12.



None.

Yes I know he said melee but this doesn't even have screens, which are required for the melee section now, and I figure he can get all the help he needs here.

Make sure P1 and P2 are the only players in force one. Uncheck all boxes below (Randomized, allies, allied vic, share vision), make sure P1 is set to human and user selectable, then try again.

Edit: This is assuming its a 2P map. If its 4, do the same with 4 players.

If you're using Scmdraft, there is a rare bug where a player will cease to exist despite owning a start location. However, like I said this is extremely rare and only ever happens if you mess with the player's start location a lot. If you can't get it to work after exhausting every other option, you might consider creating a new map and pasting your current terrain on top of it (and then placing the start locations again).

Again, only if you're using Scmdraft.

Re-place all your start locations and make sure that they aren't too close to the map boundaries, I think that MIGHT be it with the bug but I'm not sure.

so it can be beaten by a prepared pro, even in macro games, if only barely. the muta micro in particular seems really hard to handle for protoss ground though. In the open goons can't catch them, in the base they trip over buildings, it just instantly flies out of storms and they fly circles around archons. Mass cannons do work, but can't cover the whole map with it. Probably need mass corsair to counter and hope you can outmaneuver all the scourge.
