i made a fastest map possible 4x map but when i played it all the minerals in the top half of the map were gone, i opened it up in the editor again and the minerals were there again... whats going on?

I haven't seen the map, but my guess would be that you placed them for a human player instead of P12. Give them to P12 and they should show up.

Yea, That's the problem, You didn't give them to player 12, You have them to a different player that was a human player...Try giving them to player 12, And see if it worked.

maybe you placed them too far up.. you have to place them 1 square down from the edge of the map, or else it wont show.. they'll still be there, but they wont be visible...

Sorry, I didn't look at the map, but....



THis is because player 12 is considered the "neutral" player. If a player leaves a melee game, any units he/she had are given to player 12.


Spammage?

Ya, right. You don't have to place them 1 square down from the edge of the map. You can place it at the very top (using SCM draft) and it WILL show up during the game (if the minerals are owned by player 12).

It may be better to do 2x speed instead of 4x, since it's a melee-based map. I've done a 4x speed melee map before, and the units wouldnt attack the enemy unless i told them too..

Actually, I was telling him that was the problem...

He was saying it is spam because Nozomu had just said it one post above yours.

The author of this map hasn't come back to check on this topic yet, let's wait to see if what we said works.

glytcher, please keep this:
In mind. It is very important.

oh... i thought i gave them to player 12... guess i didnt... aw well, thanks guys


ADDITION:
i just looked back at the map and all the minerals and geysers belong to player 12 so thats not the problem

Just too bad it's a money map, I would tell you what your problem is if it wasn't.

Did you place those minerals before or after you placed the 4x unit? Try replacing them after the speed unit thingy.

This problem has already been solved.

Chu why does that make a differance to you? If you arn't going to help don't inform us that your not, just don't reply.
