Most of the time when playing zerg freestyle I get this error when gametime reaches 7:00: gt_RoundTimerExtendFunc g_ArrayIndexUnderflow And don't see the score screen

Oh, one more thing - as someone mentioned wall-offs, what about adding functionality to test if wall is complete a bit like it is in Spine Crawler TD? Just try to move an invisible unit from the choke to the base and if it fails, the wall is probably ok

Oh man, this map is getting just out of control how good it is :D However, one thing I'll change is when you select your race/BO and click start, the game just starts with default waves. The add a "Edit waves" button to the first screen so IF you want to change the waves, you can, but it does not annoy you otherwise (when I first click Start Game I just said "WTF?" as there was just too much mess on the screen :)

I'll look more in depth into this later, now i have no time :-(

Great job, will test 0.1.4 as soon as I get home!

Also, awesome job on this xor. It's just what I want out of this kind of map!

Some stuff I noticed: -multiple instances of the same unit/building in the BO doesn't work. For example, if the build includes zerglings at 17 and 18, you will fulfill both of them when you build the first one. -Zerg buildings are registered as being built AFTER the Drone has been removed. So a 14 pool will show up as being built at 13, since the building drone "dies".

Wishlist feature: last run time and highscores!

Simple 14 Pool 15 Hatch:

// 14 Pool 15 Hatch
gv_buildOrdersInfo[2][1].lv_title = "14 Pool 15 Hatch";
gv_buildOrdersInfo[2][1].lv_author = "meee";

gv_buildOrdersInfo[2][1].lv_matchup = 11;
gv_buildOrdersInfo[2][1].lv_numberOfSteps = 8;
gv_buildOrdersSteps[2][1][0].lv_targetS = 9;
gv_buildOrdersSteps[2][1][0].lv_targetM = 100;
gv_buildOrdersSteps[2][1][0].lv_unitType = "Overlord";
gv_buildOrdersSteps[2][1][1].lv_targetS = 14;
gv_buildOrdersSteps[2][1][1].lv_targetM = 200;

gv_buildOrdersSteps[2][1][6].lv_targetM = 50;

I have no idea how hard this would be to add or if someone else has allready suggested this, but it would be cool if you could save your build order from the freestyle-mode and you could practice your own build order even if it isnt on the list kind of. Or be able to make your own through some menus or something.

And one more thing that can be useful - allow to hide objectives tab and just provide final stats, so you can simulate real-game situation, where you can't have the BO displayed.

(edit: messed markup)

Would it be possible to add an APM counter as well? So you can keep track of the APM while practicing

This. Is. Awesome.

Really good update, fixed all the issues I was having :P Now this is clearly superior to that other well known build order tester ;> This is just an idea: how about not giving bonus points for the amount of workers, but the amount of minerals+gas collected total? The current system encourages zerg to spam drones at the last minute.

I like this. I like this a lot. In fact, it's pretty damn close to exactly what I was looking for. I'd been looking for a way to improve my early game, and this is definitely helping.

Do you think you'll be doing more modifications to it? If so, I could make two suggestions.

1: The build order I use involves upgrades - in particular, for Terran I work to get the Marine's Combat Shield and Marauder's Stun abilities started right after getting a Tech Lab. I imagine others do similar things (Speedlings, for example). Can upgrades be cleared as well after each reset/restart?

2: It'd be really neat if there were a switch so you could make the early harassment even worse. I've had Protoss and Zerg both run a very early scout into my base and start building Extractors/Assimilators, and o'course things like the 6-Ling Rush and Cheese Reapers. Is there a way to add a "make harassment much worse" switch?

...But these are small things. I like this. I'm already practicing with it. A lot. :)

Well done, looks like a good map.

I have just a couple of questions though. The build-orders don't seem to be very accurate yet; protoss for example has a build which supply blocks at 18 and there is no instruction on when to make the second pylon. Is this going to be fixed in future versions?
Will it be possible to specify my own build before the game starts (at which food, what mineral and what gas amount do I make building or unit X) and make it show up as a checklist as well? I really like the checklist as oftentimes I tend to forget to build some key structure:D

Also, it might be nice to have the option to choose against which race you play and maybe even which build, so you can optimize a perfect counter for a build. So that the timed pushes and rushes will be with units that are viable for the chosen strategy.

Anyway, great job so far, I can see this become very very useful indeed.

My issues with -reset in v0.1.0: - it doesn't reset techtree. (you probably know about this, but it wasn't listed in known issues). - Sometimes it leaves a few probes from the last round and I end up starting with more than 6 probes. They seem to be next to where an assimilator was. My guess is they were probably inside it when you tried to remove all units. And sorry if these are already fixed, you release updates really fast :P
