Hey guys, i got a problem with the sprites in the map i am making... It is a map that will have around 1000 sprites... maybe less if i can. The problem is that i got 492 sprites and around 60 or em disapear at game start... maybe are they misplaced but i dont think so caus somme others places the same way are not removed...

Another thing i noticed is the fact that all the sprites that got removed are in the bottom half of the map, but not all sprites under the middle are removed... strange.

Fast help would be cool, thx.

No, I want to know how you spam like such a pro.

Anyway, isn't there an alternative way you can do the map? Forget sprites.

Armor: 90.50%

Certain sprites placed in the editor tend to either finish their animation right away and disappear or not appear at all.

The sprite limit is 499.

Hm, where did you get that from?

I thought it was 250.
At least for the "units-not-shooting-anymore" bug caused by too many units shooting at once.
Or is this a different limit? Preplaced vs. shot sprites?

Uhhh, can't you just go to you're settings in SCMDraft 2 and change the sprite limit? Mine is a lot... like, a big number-10000.

No, you can't. Try making sprites in Scmdraft and it will tell you when you get 250.
I don't know about the not shooting anymore bug, but you can only place 250 in an editor.

NudeRaider 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.
yeh thts straight up cheating

NimoStar -- It can by playing the same map thousands of times. It is similar to AI speedrunning games
