we've tried this and it wasn't really good, longer way means more units on fields means more lag.

defenses are, hm don't know, I don't want to fight some neutral tanks I want to fight other players.

The cannon got a immortal like shield to protect it from the tier2 units for quite a bit. this shield got buffed in the current version I've got here on my pc.

@baclkcud, there are two ways a maps starts:

a) as soon as the lobby is full the game starts automaticly with a 30 seconds timer
b) the leader pressed the start button before the lobby has been filled. now it takes only the set time in the variants

IMPORANT I think this game goes by to fast. I mean the cannons are so weak and all. Can you make the monsters have to go farther and add some other deffenses they have to go through on both teams before they reach the cannon like there should be towers and a up hill hike so they get shot at as they climb to win. It would stall some time so please add this. Also if you add this give credit to linkmon99 in desc. thanks again! :) ==**

k :)

strange. my incomewars map DOES start after 8 seconds and i have seen other maps with lower cooldowns. maybe it is another glith with this f*cking header and game variants. It is not a major issue, but it is generally agreed that reductions in loading and lobby time greatly increase your players motivation to play the map and this is what we all want dont we :-)

@ Citrien finally ;) going to look for the option to give you some rights

@Totzlol it's a test and until now nobody said anything about it. You may not have seen the process on EU servers but the ramps already moved closer together. maybe they are merging again. the distances are so small in the editor and ingame the units from bottom never even see the units from top. Don't really like it as well but it has to wait, I'm to lazy to release a new version just to change this

But I'm going to keep the two spawn points on top and bottom of the cannon.

I like every feedback even if someone don't like something new

Grats on getting rid of the nuke grief...but wtf did you have to make it top and bottom for?

Redesigning the map layout was a bad decision.

Needs less Nexus Wars feel, more Income Wars feel. Go back to the way you originally did it.

Medics and Science Vessels imo shouldn't be able to stack heal on one target. Just makes them to strong if they get placed correctly. It also allows units like void ray to easily charge up and not die with a group of science vessels healing.

@iminminnesota I think ill just keep my map up until bloodytosser decides to update it to the latest.

edit: oh he did. deleting my map now. Tell him to publish it a bunch of times so the version number matches and isnt v0.2.

I published it to the us server as:

"Income Wars Original" published by Andrew

It also has the correct version numbering. None of this "income wars v3.11 v0.1" crap. I'll also keep it updated.

yeah there is an option in variants and it is set to 10 seconds. blizz ignores it

it is not a coincidence that every map needs 30 seconds to start

You can actually change the autostart lobby cooldown. It is somewhere in the game variants. I think it is called "lobby delay" or sth like that. there should be a drop down menu with entries like "0 1 3 5 8 10 15 20 25 30"

you can't change the autostart lobby cooldown... the 30 seconds are made by blizz

I've not seen any thor spam lately, going to test it myself. immortals should be pretty strong against it

added a map screenshot for all the poor american players to recognize the current version

*edit* just played your updated version some rounds. your map is much better without defensive structures and with the slightly changed layout. gj just two thoughts while playing: i cannot prove it with numberes, but normal thors spam is extremely strong (had this problem on my map too) they are extremly hard to counter. second: science vessels are like top or flop. two science vessels in the right position (which you can hardly alter) allow a goliath to tank 12 (i counted them) stalkers! if they are missplaced they die within a second. you might want to play around a little bit with the casting range and auto-cast range of the heal ability. (just dont set the auto cast range too high or the unit will fly around like a maniac, but i guess you already figured that one out) p.s. you might want to consider lowering the lobby cooldown to something < 10 seconds. gj dude! now we re talking! happy mapping blackcud

doing ai probably today or tomorrow

your map is not locked ?!

I saw your map and thought, there are some things he don't like. I took a look to figure out what he likes to change and tried a few of this ideas.

The idea behind the increasing dmg is:

the team with the better units get an advantage
the longer the game takes the fast the units die

a kill/death ratio system can help with the "punishing of the brainless", you just have to make it a little bit more diverse (in fact differing killscore and lose score values for every unit). so you may set the lose score for medivacs low and for things like banelings and voidrays high. In the first place I though i could just go for an cost/supply/thingy worth value but that was total crap and completely imbalanced. for the damage upgrade 1st is too powerful problem: isnt it possible to add more upgrades whenever your whatever (1000 kills or the liking) is triggered? like 1+dmg upgrade for the first 1000 and 2 dmg upgrades for 2000 kills ( or vice versa reducing the amount of kills needed for next upgrade by 100 every step. (values are purly random with no specific thought to your map) and for the beta/development thing: i must apologize, i should have said "i dislike the version i played (it was disappointing)" i will probalby discontinue my map. was just an experiment, to see what the difference is between war3 editor and galaxy. if you would like to have an unlocked copy PM me. happy mapping, BlacKcuD
