Hello People, I've been working on a map for several years now and well that may seen like a long time its mostly just a full week of work every 8 months or so which isn't a great system or anything but I'm not what you would call an advanced user of the Galaxy Editor. So during that allotted time I have come to make my desired product there is just one issue I've encountered that I can't seem to find a solution for and that's removing Dependencies.
Yes the map is very old and could have some issues due to sc2 version updates but all and all it does play and everything works fine but the units don't seem to match their original counterparts, Infact some units don't match any unit from sc2 at all. Most units and I'll use the Marauder as an example here can get all the upgrades but doesn't lose health from stim but the Marine does??
So this above example is broad, and by that I mean it's everywhere. I must of added everything and screwed up the original source of data created a mutated Dependency. I have tried to remove the Dependencies one by one but the editor just says cannot perform action or just loads out and eventually crashes.
My end goal is to make all units reflect the Lotv Dependency for balance reasons but I need some of the unique units/spells/skins and so forth that come from the Co-Op and other Dependencies. Am I able to fix this problem going forward easily or is the Lotv Dependency screwed now?
Just a small question before I go because this seems to be summed up, thanks for the process sum up by the way it helped me understand what I did to make this work. Like I said the guides for Automatic Geysers are outdated to say the least.
The question is how do I get a bounty to show up saying +5 Gas when you're given ressources out of the buildings?
Kinda like how it works in the campaign or in Coop.
Omg I was having a look at the geyser unit to see if it was related, found the identifier for resource because that's new to me, checked on the building units I was having the issue with and one of them (the one in question was set to minerals).
I'm having a hilarious issue with my Automatic Geyser, Since the guides out there are 3-6 years old I've had to mostly wing most of this data editing but when I first saw it work I was relieved and also confused and I'm hoping you know why.
When the data worked it produced Minerals. I have absolutely no idea but that'll do for my checklist and I'll move on to the next task upgrading the building to tier 2. So after finishing the tier 2 geyser upgrade I loaded up a test and was then absolutely confused again, this time the tier 2 building was now producing gas.....
At first I was relieved because ok so it produces minerals well I can work with that but now that both buildings produce different ressources I cannot work with that at all. I've double checked everywhere and just cannot work out why this is occuring. Both buildings are using their complete own Behaviors/Effects/Validators in order to produce the automatic geyser so I had so double check to see if they where mirrors and after around 2 hours of mirror checking everything seems completely the same.
Hey mappers and mapping enthusiasts, I've been a member here since during SC2Beta. I have visited the site on a weekly basis since then.

Hi, I am Mapcrafter or aka Sickoe_DT_ creator of "New Stack Defense" & "Tarpit Defense 1-3.2,4-4.5".
I would really appreciate if you do not take Tarpit Defense and make a new map out of it, however take the game play and make your own map.
I originally designed the map around HMGA Defense based on a 10,000+word story I wrote for English about stranded terraformers eventually learning mother nature fights back and I would not want to see Tarpit out there as a useless excuse for a name.
Sorry for new post but I cant put code in edited posts.
This is what I have, However I dont know how to use any of this to adjust the map. Player 9 and 10 are not allying anyone.
I'm trying to make a map where teams get sorted in the lobby to 4v4 and that cannot be changed but players should be able to move around the lobby freely. In game units are then given to those players on the 2 opposite points for each team but this is not working, I can identify which team a player is on but do not understand this "for each player" trigger that is supposed to sort though 4 players and distribute each unit to each of the 4 players.
What is happening is all of the trigger goes through and only 1 player ends up with any units. So basically the trigger is not distributing as it should and I think its because I do not understand it at all.
Anyone kind enough to sum up how to evenly sort players into their respective forces and then give the units already on the map to each player in those 2 distinct areas?
The below is just finished for 1 player so far. It was finished for all but I figured a broken trigger is of no use.
Examples please, from all that I've read on all of this from other threads and also from here I have now a tumor the size of this post. I kinda understand what you mean and I've written much complicated things then this but am too frustrated to even comprehend whats going on.
Sorry if that sounds impatient but I know you know that this is such an annoying topic to be addressing if you haven't had an accomplished product to go off, In all honesty I've seen threads on this that are just blatant "Here's my code" and I understood those better then your thread... Maybe I'm just over thinking it.
EDIT: So I've sat down and am working through this code copying everything to the letter, I have come across some disturbing things, first of all I cant tell when you start a new trigger or not and the most disturbing thing is:
Set ProtossPlayers[Picked Integer] = Player 9
Set ZergPlayers[Picked Integer] = Player 10
How the hell did you just type "Player 9" when I search for 20 minutes that seems to be completely impossible unless it is a variable which you have not once stated so I am still dumbfounded as to how. I tried typing it in script then saving the map but it said error.
I'm having a similar issue but mine is definitely stranger, I am not getting past 0% when trying to publish. I tried the old strategy of removing the original upload of the map then restarting the publish but it did not work.
I am also not being restricted to 2 minutes to upload.
I am also aware of NA server being down and am trying this on SEA. I hope NA is not where the upload is stored but alas that may be why I am unable to upload.
When you swing your sword using magic, the attack will go straight around the shield. Plus there are other weapons such as the Hammer and Long Sword which both require 2 hands but can if controlled with a sideways action go around a shield.
I still think the system is more justified when you compare its design to real life fighting, If someone has a bow and is shooting you with arrows then you will obviously never drop your shield until they run out of the arrows. If you both have a short sword and shield then the fight will depend on timing and predictably the better fighter.
The map you showed looks great, I wonder if its going to be a total conversion or just game play. No z targeting makes this gamer sad xD.
I have always seen the combat system designed and used in "Zelda Ocarina of Time" as the most fun to fight in, the system however has not gone to a multiplayer level and as the Zelda game gets older and more distant as a once was game, never will be.
I always remember to search every couple of months for multiplayer mods of Zelda, making sure I will be there if someone actually completes their attempts as I know quite a few have tried, either for co-op or for arena but still time goes by and they are unsuccessful. If I knew a thing about what they had to go threw to get progress on their projects I would attempt to help but alas I only know basic stuff.
I have seen a lot of great maps starting to flow out of sc2mapster and was starting to wonder, could a Zelda map come form here soon? I mean it would be a great game, although it would be quite a set back not having the storyline intact to create co-op but the arena side of things would still be an amazing game.
FYI: only a sword and shield where used in the video linked.

I feel relieved.

There seems to be no specific resource indication. One is just giving minerals and the other is giving gas, I can't seem to identify why.
This seems to be the only region depicting resource altering in the slightest.

I'd like to check out this project considering I made the original.

Sorry for new post but I cant put code in edited posts. This is what I have, However I dont know how to use any of this to adjust the map. Player 9 and 10 are not allying anyone.
I also moved to Team 2 and still spawned on team 1 following the "player 1 rules".
