Does anyone know why my map is dropping people? I used Starcraft X-tra editor to make the map...nothing special in it. I used the constrants of the editor. I have no idea why its dropping people.

If the black is null terrain then there's your problem...

Change it to water.

I have never heard that null crashes some peoples computers. There is only 21 tiles of null. (that i found) See the attachment the null tiles are highlighted in 'mineral'

I would test the map but i have a problem, (My computer crashes anyway). Did you disable any units?

No units are disable. How did you get that pic?@?!?!?

Its a screen shot from the editor (X-tra 2.5) . I cropped it down a bit so you wouldn't have to look at my entire desktop. Also to decrease file size.

Oh, how did you get it to put minerals on the null terrain?

Null doesn't crash Starcraft.

When I opened in base, 2 units were unreplaceable. You may have something placed off the map, so try to open in base, resave and play again in starcraft.

Null terrain smears the images displayed over it. Like if you scroll you will see the terrain smeared onto the null. Or if you move your mouse over it you will see your mouse curser image over the area. (not the little arrow).

I just simply selected a mineral feild as a unit and moved my mouse around the screen to smear the image across all the null tiles. (I engraved my name into one of my maps this way once). Its just a bug with staredit.

Null terrain is a terrain that's "Not there" so when staredit detects a terrain that's "Not there", it would re-draw the image from the last frame, creating a strange image.

Changed all null to water and its still dropping people.

Are any buildings placed so close to the edge that some of it is off the map?
Are you using any sprites, or disabling any units?

Is your map corrupted but still readable? (common / / sometimes nothing you can do)

He said it's dropping people, implying not him. If that were the problem, he would crash as well.

If you need to, extract the sections that don't cash using SCMIE.

Is it dropping people in the game or in the pre-game waiting room?

If it was in the waiting room, the chances of constatnly meeting that many laggers is like.... 0
