Alright, i've got a map that seems to be hitting CCMU (max units) far too soon, and it seems to get worse and worse the more people are in the game (not in a linear manner which would be fairly obvious)... With 8 players in the game, when it maxed and I quit, the total tally of all units + all buildings anyone built was only 522... Now yes, I know that other things play into this as well, but there is no possible way altogether it's hit 1700...

Other than the actual buildings and units, there are:

mineral/gas patches, 24 per player x 8 = 196
8 CCs with comsats by neutral = 16
bunker anti camp 6x5x2 = 60
Marines for each bunker = 60
18 map revealers x 8 = 144

= 476

Together with the player build units and buildings, thats 998 (plus a few for potential larvae, which i dont think count towards units)... There are no Goliaths or tanks in the game yet, so none of the units count for 2...

If anyone has any idea as to where these units could be, feel free... but in the meanwhile...

Is there any program out there one can use to actively debug a map? Something that can show the number of units and such on the map as its played?

Download SCMDraft 2, it can display things like that but it will exclude the units created ingame such as larva (which count towards limit).

i have it... but SCM Draft only shows pre-placed units... i'm looking for units that may be placed after the game starts... the preplaced units add up as they should, about 450...

What i'm looking for is something that can keep track and show whats on the map while its being played, sort of like a map hack, but for statistics and such...

You could create a text message that will says how many units have just been created. Then you have to do some math and keep track of that crap.

Use the action Leaderboard for Control then replace the units with any unit and the locatin with anywhere.
