Staredit Network -> Melee Chat -> Minerals Problem (mainly zerg)

No matter where i place the start location, its always to far ONLY ON THE BOTTOM OF THE MAP, so that protoss and zerg races are able to fit a probe/drone between the minerals and the nexus/hatchery. Terran seems to work fine (scv has more pixles i suppose and that keeps them from fitting). Does anyone have ANY IDEA WHATS HAPPINING?!??!

Place it... Closer?

And clearly, by the subtle clues you have provided for your problem, I have deduced that you are making a fastest map, which would happen to be unsupported by our wonderful website.

The reason why the start location is never right is because you're always estimating. What I would suggest is place a mineral patch on the orig editor, and place a Start Location so it fits. Then take up SCMDraft or Starforge, and stack the minerals so you have the Start Location in a perfect position, and your fastest map won't have any issues.

BTW, those maps have no point at all. All you do is uh..get minerals, mess up your build order, turtle up, and mass. Dude, no strategy in that, is there? So why don't you go back to the old blizzard maps? Or all you just too...what...lazy? IMO, I think you should learn to play SC the right way. Not play it in some improvised way...-.-'

I do play blizz maps, and i make org maps all the time, i just wanted to know how to make a fastest map, i mean it looked simple so i wanted to try it. But i didnt konw that staredit.net didnt support fastest maps. i wouldent have posted here if i had known. Altho now it realy doesnt matter, i tried placing the startlocation closer but eventually i got it to the point where it was as close as it would get without not displaying the minerals at all. No matter where i place it it doesnt fit. But o well.

It's not that we don't support them, it's just the people who actually read the melee forums play real melee maps. And we all hate fastest.

fastest would be fine if people didnt get 20 scvs or w.e and get 100 mins a secound...then just ending up maxing the map from there big BC mass..it would be fine if the players were only limited to like 5 builders..

Good point, although as you can see it isn't very active because this would happen to be the worst place to get into melee'ing.

But the mapping is good.

Meh, to end this, there's reasons why you shouldn't make a fastest map:

Only noobs will play them, and you'll be wasting your time adding to the good-for-nothing crap maps.

You're entitling yourself as a noob since you can't think of something more original or worth your time.

I sent you help WEEKS AGO. Why aren't you responding?

Only MORONS play fastest map, and not in generals, but the players who play them are fags (trust me, I've known tons of fastest players that are fags).


To clear things up, I'm refering morons and fags to:

Thirteen year olds who think they're better than everyone else.

Swearing youths. They go: 'i own u' at the beginning, and when you own them, they go 'hax!!!1' or 'fuk u female dog!!11' and leave.

Anti-laggers. They tend to go for the laggers, allies or enemies. Yep, and they swear your ass off just because you lag: 'omfg teal lags lets get him!!11'.


Mm. I hope you take my advice into consideration..but so far seems like you're ignoring it.
