Yeah the bug about not respawning was the highway boss thing when it stops moving, it just centered my view at the middle constantly. Although sometimes when I get killed at that boss at a certain place I respawn directly under it, which is kind of annoying.
Finally beat the turret thing after saving/loading a ton of times in the middle of it, and it may be rare but once when one of the command centers move towards it I was farther away killing a guardian, and I went for the command center as soon as it was in vision and it got to the turret before it was killed, so it was sort of impossible unless you could predict it coming before it happened. To an extent the last boss was a lot of luck instead of skill (not that there was no skill, but still) by guessing which way it's coming from, because no position could stop every path it could come from no matter how good you were.

Tux I like you, and I really don't mean to rain on your hard work and parade, because you're an excellent map maker. But this is bull-shiz.
You posted this topic 1 day ago and it has 6 pages, not that your reputation isn't worthwhile, but it's your reputation giving all this feedback, it sickens me.
The point is, if you were a normal map maker and no one had ever heard of Rush from tuxedo temp and you posted a thread, would all these posts come up?
Hell-fark-in no.
I'm not saying you don't deserve it, but it sure as hell is a huge piece of bullcrap.
I've seen 3 good maps in the last 2-3 months get 0 response because the map makers were not well known, or their features wern't brand new. I just wanna say the way SEN feedback works is becoming really biased and pathetic. And I thought this thread was a perfect example of how and why.
Anyway, no I don't want to beta Test, you've got enough testers and I rather play the hardass final version. So goodluck and hope your flocking sheep beta testers enjoy it. I apologize for havin to put this in your thread, only because you've done nothing wrong in the first place. Just the right place to say this.

That's ironic. I remember saying almost the exact same thing to someone else awhile back about imbalanced recognition.
Any I've PMed you my thoughts so let's not start a discussion on this. In part I agree with you, but I don't come here often (nor will I as much in the future), and for a map that must rely on internet downloads to even get played at all (it's not like this will spread over bnet with only 1 extra player slot and over 6 megs) I'm trying to get as much recognition before release as I can. I apologize if that's offensive.

None of the timers worked? Can you get that to repeat?
I'll need to know exactly what you did on that one. It's no small bug if it's true (and no small task to fix, if it's still lurking around).

Found something else when trying to repeat that bug: I died during the first boss' death animation. It warped my respawn point to the Highway (without me getting in the Dropship, since I didn't have a Defiler), then respawned my Defiler at my old (non-Highway) respawn point, stranding me.

I used a dark swarm at the location where you change to a vulture at the highway, and it just skipped me to the vulture part.
I tried to do it more, although it doesn't seem to work now, maybe it has something to do with me intentionally dieing there, and I was killing ultralisks walking by there.

Oh, I managed to repeat Voyager's bug (which was the original intention when I found that), I think it might happen if you run out of time before fighting the highway boss (just being dumb and not going to the end in the car), or it could just be something about loading.

Well on the highway boss. I kinda didn't kill it, and died about where the highway level begins, when the bos was right there as well. And I never got placed back on the game. I'm guessing the units were blocking the respawn path or something.
Oh and just a note, you can skip the password thing at the start.

Yes I'm looking into that now. Anything that blocks respawns or halts the player is significant.
I just issued out the passwords btw, so if you want you can skip the parts you can't beat (for now) to test the rest. I need more feedback on the later chapters in particular, since I've barely got to test them at all.

I think the bug Voyager had and the one about the highway boss not respawning thing is because of the respawn points changing. The highway boss what I can see being the problem, is it tells you to respawn at the observer location, but since the highway boss gets to the end right then, the observer is no longer there, so the center view thing would go to the middle, although I'm not sure why it wouldn't make your defiler spawn there also.

Well unless you have maps to show for that I can't tell. I had to tell that other guy that even if they were experienced (especially if they were), if they don't have anything finished it's a waste. If you have any maps posted anywhere though, then I'll at least need to see where and what before I can tell you're not a newb.
Anyway don't fret guys I'll have more testing slots open when I fix the highway portion.

While in the caves during 2 player, the first time me and rantent spawned, we had NO vision. The second time, the hydra tried to unburrow, and was stuck in the half-burrowed state, blocking the defiler's movement.
