I have made a thread with all of the submissions in the first post, and will keep it updated regularly if people use it: http://forums.sc2mapster.com/development/map-development/7253-the-map-testers-list/

Please post there instead if you like the idea of an updated thread!

I found Crazyfingers' original thread (http://forums.sc2mapster.com/development/map-development/5946-map-tester-list/) useful and I think InsanitySektor's idea to make a united thread was a good idea, so here it is!

Quote from crazyfingers619:

Everyone who wants to have their map tested and is willing to help test other people's maps post their name and numeric code in here. We WILL send random messages to each other on bnet for testing requests and hopefully have a consolidated group from time to time, so don't post in here if you sign into bnet just to play with your buddies and don't want to be bothered with requests for testing. In turn you get the right to bug others for testing, that's how this whole system works ;).

If you're hardcore about map making, willing to help others test their maps and want them to help you test yours post your info.

Write down your info in this format, for everyones satisfaction:

Quote from Siaon:
I'm having the following trigger in my map setup:

Camera - Zoom camera for player (Picked player) at (Start location of player (Picked player)) from ((Real(Default Camera Distance)) + 8.0) to Default Camera Distance over 2.0 seconds

I have indeed set up starting locations for all (the four) players, and assigned them properly in the player properties. And this trigger does seem to work, instead of having the camera at the bottom left, it zooms in on the player's starting locaiton.

It will however throw this big fat error (Which I can remove by changing Start location of player (Picked player) to Value - Start Location 001. (The error in question: Trigger error could not get point from parameter in CameraPan 65535)

Am I being stupid about something or is this a bug?

The problem is that it can't use a simple point to pan to. It needs to be a start location point, so if you have set a simple point in the Map > Player Properties, change that to start location point and it'll work.

I did not see this mentioned in the "WC3 like shared experience" post.

Are there any tutorial on how to display a variable to player?
 Want to show everyone in my map their own Total Experience variable, based on amount show level too.
<</quote>>

I can't make a tutorial for it, but I can tell you directly that what you're looking for is something like this:
UI - Display ("overdrive time:" + (Text(overdriveDuration[looper]) with 1 decimal places)) for (All players) to Subtitle area

Action > Text Message
Function > Combine Text
Value > "any text"
+
Function > Convert $vartype(example: Integer) To Text

Now in return feel free to explain to me how to add a charge to nuclear missile with action, thx & yw :)

Yes, true, the internets is full of kiddies who like to show their skills so they try to show that they know something but have no idea what they are talking about. :D
