So im making a mod. For unknown reasons the game always stops when playing against terran (in single player) or drops all players (in b.net if at least one player is terran)... (in single player if u are terran its ok, everything works)
I think this maybe because i made the marine a melee unit..
I tried to make a mini MPQ with only the marine stuff, and the game crashed at 07:50 (minutes)... So does anyone know what could be the problem?

It would really help if you could tell us what you did. Could you attach the MPQ or describe the changes you made.

Well i tried to attach an mpq , a rared mpq but it doesnt add it.

*Edit k adding a zip worked, there's weapons and units .dat, thats enough to cause the game to stop...

Huh... I can't find anything that would cause it to crash off the top of my head... maybe .dat file corruption?

It seems to occur around this time in the AIScript though...

CODE

build 1 factory 80
wait_buildstart 1 factory
define_max 16 marine
train 16 marine
train 1 firebat

You can't play DAT mods unsupported via B.net.

It crashes in single player as well though.

So if its in the AI script (which is very possible, because it happens only when comp is terran) why it doesnt work in b.net? Both player had the mod running, and each of them received that their opponent was dropped, but no drop box had ever appeared...

Did you have the exact same version or did you edit yours barely without reminding the other player to update his version?

Edit: Does it drop at the start of the game or during it?

I don't think it's in the aiscript, but it has something to do with whatever the computer does during that time in the aiscript.

Yes im sure we had the same version, since it was the first beta test, so thre were no updates.

The mod stops during the game in single player when computer is terran

It might be something in the mpq itself thats causing the problem...what mpq viewer did you use?
