Having Trouble Hosting a Map That I Made...
Staredit Puckwork
I have created half of a bound, but for some reason, I keep getting a message that an error occured while hosting the game.
If any other info is needed, I'll try to supply it.

Rename the map to have just letters and numbers, no special characters.

Make sure you have start locations for every player that has a unit in the game, make sure you have no humans in the same force as computer [it usually lets you do this, but for good measure 
].
And is it before you host, or during the actual game in the lobby/breif/start of map?

I havent set start locations for the computer player..
so ill try that and reply
EDIT:
I put all start locations and I'm able to create the game.
None.
Every player including computers, even if there is 1 unit or even 1 trigger to create a unit for that player, need a start location or else you can't host. if you want them to have units. You need two to host. <--- Devourer.

So it worked?

All you need are at least 2 start locations. Players/computers with units on the map but no start-location will just not shown up (neither the units will exist ingame).
And when you create units for not-existing players they will be created, unallied to all players.
Please report errors in the Staredit.Network forum.
but technically they will not be anything, you can't remove them by removing a player's units. And yes you need start locations for EVERY player that has preplaced units, or else starcraft won't let you host it at all. Try it, if it works, then send me a screenshot of the editor and you in game, then send me the map and I'll try it.

Several ultralisks for players not existing. They are removed but you can host.

That's not what I meant, those players are HUMAN, ofcourse they won't show up, they won't be filled in or be able to be filled in at all. If they were computer, it wouldn't work! 
Try it with computers, since computer slots are filled it, they can't just not be there. You cheated.
I should've said COMPUTERS need SL's and so do all HUMANS who are used as slots to play.

Stop posting wrong information or mods probably will start deleting your post.
This is not meant to be an offense post, it's more an advice.

I'm not kidding you, like I said, it overwrote. Fixed the last post.

NudeRaider -- blessed innocent soul knows nothing of the strife we had before EUDs were discovered 
[2026-6-23. : 3:29 am]
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.
[2026-6-21. : 4:56 am]
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?[2026-6-21. : 4:25 am]
Oh_Man -- the thing is thos buildings are from classic. that means they went ahead and made brood war without ever finishing the 'unfinished' buildings[2026-6-20. : 6:15 pm]
Ultraviolet -- Yeah he's talked about a lot of that stuff in his casts before. It seems plausible. Especially knowing how Blizzard of yesteryear operated.[2026-6-20. : 3:47 pm]
NudeRaider -- to clarify: couldn't recall the behavior for every single Protoss building but I was aware the disparity exists.[2026-6-20. : 3:43 pm]
NudeRaider -- Contained nothing new for me. Didn't know all building's behavior, but very much all unit's. Also Terran balance whine - also nothing new
