So soon after I started a new project/map, my SC2 will crash about 10% of the time when I click "test map." The map and my computer will still be fine, it's just the particular map that crashes. Changing computers doesn't help, while other maps work fine (so I'm positive it's the one map). I need this to be fixed because I imagine, if uploaded to Battle.net, the problem will still occur. It gives me the "SC2 crashed, send a report to Blizzard?" prompt when it crashes.
I haven't touched data (I did a bit, but that was after it started). The only things I have are triggers and imported OGGs and DDSs.
Deleting certain sections of triggers and testing would be rather time consuming, given that I'd have to test the map multiple (dozens) of times to be sure I found the problem, since it only crashes the SC2 client (again, not the editor, just the SC2 client) about 10% of the time.
I'm hoping someone with similar experiences will be able to guide me in the right direction.
i am not sure about it but using map init in 6 different triggers might cause problems. btw you don't have to preload the bank in triggers. can be done in map settings.
i would have one map init trigger that runs the other triggers

Also hoping this is the right subforum ;D
@Charysmatic: Go
post the map or list ALL changes or how are we supposed to help?

Map doesn't need to be posted. It's a unique situation.
So others have used your map and get the same result?
Sounds like some trigger on initialization messing up. Does your map have any pseudorandom elements?

Well, my other computer. Different editor settings and everything.

No.
I suppoooose I'll link it. I just get paranoid people are going to be critical about it.

Nah, it's fine.

What? edit: I found it, thanks.
