seems like a good idea, but it seams that trigger is going off 1million times a minute, so i think its probably causing moar lag than anything else, that and it didnt do anything for player 2 which while testing clearly isnt under any players control which just left them standing all over the map just like before. im not sure what to do ill set up something like an ftp: server so you can access the map file at anytime

@wingednosering: Go

I would just need help fixing broken shit, i enjoy researching and figuring out how to actually do most of these things but i think having a trigger guy like yourself on speed dial for some of my random question would be really nice. and someone to take a look over the map in editor and maybe if there is a better way to do things..

for instance i have a lot of units spawned for the defense to the point of massive lag... what can i do to reduce the lag of having 600 units sitting around, or how could I use triggers or unit modifications to reduce the amount of actual units there are used. and to generally bounce idea's off of and possible beta test with sometimes.

I hate the fact that it takes 6 hours before you can get a decent answer to most topics, otherwise its 3 1/2 hours of searching the forums for one post worth of 3 sentences that fixes my problem. If i had someone i could jump in vent with or text wtf ever and say ask " how would i do this ? omgwtf?!?! " or " why do i fail" and get an answer withing half a week would make this process go a lot faster lol..

Thanks a lot.

well the only reason the Uncontrolled players are making it through is because the 2nd players defense is kinda half assed, and i have both spawn attacking one location if you let the red go alone, they wont make much progress. and i plan to have it all balanced as such,

The idea is to make the player macro all of the units or they end up running to there death, and i know i need a lot more content! and i mean a lot.

Problem is at the moment I am Fairly new to mapping with this editor, and i am coming to the point even now that the map is starting to lag with so many units

So i need someone who i can bounce idea's off , someone with trigger exp, so i know what i can actually do and techniques to reduce lag and make the map seamless.

Speaking of what i need, you saw how the units would leave or get stuck in route to attack anything i can do to fix that? It causes lag i've noticed if you try to play 1player after a bit.

P.s. I enjoyed Formation D, i didn't have many idea's i was just pist i kept losing to the outside lane. you have a great idea going with Formation D . What i purpose is FORMATION WARS

Risk type game / Command your formation to destroy fellow players that would be epic and unheard of, something like Empire totalwar/sc2/risk i dunno. Formations wars is a great map and i Appreciate your input on my newb map

Anyone good with triggers want to assist with my project? could use some help from the community with this project, seems like i have a decent idea, and seems like the map is moving up the popularity list. im going to go grab fraps and make you guys a nice video of the map, maybe i can get someone to post something in this thread other than myself lol

Thanks for every SC2Mapster without your community there would have been no way for me to start this map.

@Crypt0rz: Go

cool very helpful, as for that got most the way through making the unit, only issue ive found so far is my tanks arnt starting in siege mode, and when they do siege they turn into a normal tank,. any idea's i just need this tank stationary, point the same direction 90% of the time and sitting in siege mode.

@goofoffjw: Go

can you elaborate, what other settings would i be using with create cargo units stock is last created, but that in no way describes where or where, so im still confused
