Staredit Network -> SCMDraft -> Unit Limits and possible plugin question..
Report, edit, etc...Posted by Bulletbutter on 2007-01-25 at 15:10:37
I didn't see this in the FAQ anywhere so I thought I would post this here. I am toying around with the options for SCM draft and I am wondering about the Unit Limits option in Advanced Options.

1. Does increasing this number make the map a 'mod'?
2. If not, what is absolute maximum # of units that SCM can use.
3. What is the maximum number of units capable of being pre-placed in Starcraft?

Also, I am making a tool for Starcraft. You can read about it in my post at SEN. Eventually I would like to make this tool a plugin for SCM but I am having a hard time firguring this all out. I know how to program (I am not the best but I know my way around the 'block'). I am pretty sure I can figure it out with the help thread here on SEN. Once this tool does become a plugin, is it at all possible to place locations (varying sizes) in the map with the plugin?

1)no it is not modding, modding involves changing files that determine how starcraft does things, map do not do this. 2 and 3 I dont know.

1: nope, but after 1650 or 1700 SC will give you unit unplaceable errors when loading the map
2: I have tested scmdraft with 20000 and 40000 units, but SC has a limit of 1700 (I think).
3: 1700
