for some reason when i try to start a game in custom games the map in question shows only 1 human and no computer players, even though i made sure that it was set to have comps. WTF IS HAPPENING?

Make sure you're hosting it in UMS gametype, and that every computer player has a start location and isn't set to 'unused'.

1.) Every player has to have a start location if you want there to be a slot for them.
2.) You have to set the players you want to be computers as computers.
3.) You have to save the map.
4.) Sometimes the map will not save due to complex and strange situations. In cases like this, you need to ensure than 1-3 are being completed by opening the map in different editors.

And sometimes ScmDraft is just acting up and not recognizing start locations, rendering the players in question inactive.
Just open the map in another editor and save again.

I've noticed this problem.

Often, it can be fixed by replacing the Start Location for whichever computer player is not working. Re-save the map, and try again.

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.
