Staredit Network

I'm not a grammar nazi but this sentence just screams irony,


Also I don't know if you were purposely trying to contradict yourself throughout your entire post... not to mention making little or no sense to start with.

Bot owner pay for your advertising? uh... the owner is the one advertising?
Lost of people don't go looking for new maps on the internet,.. too much hastle... to little air time. There are probably tons of maps out there that simpily just got thrown by the way side simpily cause nobody saw them even though they were the bigger fish. Maps only take 30-40 seconds to download ave, so it shouldn't matter anyways... if thats what you were infact arguing about?

About your question, .. I am Canadian and yes we all have broadband!! Why? O.oa

i would defently,(but you wont read this page)

DeathKnight got owned by syndicate lol.

I'm not goiing to say that I don't think Syndicate is telling the truth, as he very well could be, but all you would have to do is squelch those players and then just manualy type in the number of players, and some random number of seconds, then take a pic and post it.

"Actually, we should all have a say in it becuase it affects the whole community"
14 hosted games, spread onto atleast 2 of the 4 servers, will hardly make a difference.

And as Syndicate said, most people don't go looking for maps online.
You'll find too many crappy ones that aren't hosted because they suck.
You'll find atleast 5x as many ty ones as good ones, and about 10x as many remakes, rigged, and modified versions of maps as original ones.(original as in new concept, not the first version)

Most people look for games on B.net. It's the best way for your map to get spread.

Because the bot owner is spreading their own map? It's not like 100kb x 50 downloaders will ruin you.

I don't think you understand what the bot is for.

Not all, but a large quantity. It's really not unusual to have a connection >1mbps with more than 20 or 30GB transfer allowed per month.

synd][cate, can you run that while playing games yourself on the same computer?

Crispie, beautiful spam you got there.

It is a macro so no you cannot use your computer when using this, however it is a good thing to limit the number of people using this script... Only use it when your sleeping or whatever.

I am pretty much done other than advertisements in game, and kick after a certain amount of time ..

Interesting, well, i congratulate you on achieving a nifty program, i will wait for MA's program to come out, and will keep it secure, because it will likely be different, i doubt he would just use a Macro Scripter devised by someone else, takes away the fun!

I want something... tho... uh... my starcraft is messed now.... so.... ya...

PS: Syndicate, can i have that program if its relatively small?

you have to make it so that it leaves during the brief. People on B.net are too stupid. They won't know what you mean by remaking it.

if u could host ur own battle.net server like us.east u could have it only for the distribution of maps OR just take like an existing non-bnet hosted server like www.us-best.net and make it "unofficial" place for map distributing cuz its not that big neway with lots of ppl using it

wow US-Best is awesome. Yeah Run a Map bot there or something while Im at school.

Since my other thread has been toasted by the mod's, exiling it to the black abyss called Map Showcase & Staredit for no exact reason- How about I hijack this one instead..

Pretty much finished, all but a bit more smart features... so that make it runs smoothly and people won't recognize that is actually a bot, if you don't want them to.

Once it is officially released you should see support for it from SSN:
synd][cate systems network

To use this bot you be required to register an account:

This system will allow for map makers to officially release maps here first. Check sums and a few other algorithms will be used to check for hacked maps, and will prevent people from distributing garbage. Banning accounts from map hackers.

Other ideas in the works are active voting systems that allow people who have played your map to rate it from a scale of 1 to 10...feedback is sent back to the website where the top maps are showcased. To throw around some idea's this could be forced in the Game name title, as well as words like "NewMap" so people know they are joining a bot game.

Statistics such as games created, players downloaded, return players (players who rejoin your game name after they have played it once), Average game time (for already created games).

If you are part of a mapping clan, members can join a team and have an administrator designate which maps are to be distributed daily and your client will create games for that map... updated automatically. (Group statistics)

- Just some ideas. (Very practical ideas)

I believe it is a good idea.

I would like to see an advanced way to spread maps and see statistics for it too.

i just thought of one problem and i know im not a programmer or anything but i think you should know:

if the bot is the host of the game wont it be a player slot? i dont think there is a possible way to have an extra slot for the bot. so if the bot creates the game then leaves there would be no player one.

am i right or am i completely wrong?

I am pretty much done my bot now, however still testing and a few other things.

I have it so that you can specify what spot you want your bot to be in, after it makes the game.

OMFG!! YOU ALL MAKE ME SICK!!!! STOP :censored:ING BEGGING THE MAN TO BE ON THE :censored:ING LIST!!!! jesus...

oh, and mind, you forgot to add me to the list

There is already a bot that does that, it's call a gamebot, no not a winbot but a bot that joins a game and sits there, it's used on rainhan bot, dr.bot, evil bot, etc, just look around.

Joins a game or creates a game?

Important features that need to be in a distribution bot are,..
** changing game makers spot form #1..
** Starting after min # of seconds, or starting after everyone is in the game
