How do people make these maps? In Dot map there is a unit on the bottom of the map, and yellow dot on the minimap. If you look at it the game crashes, and you never see what it is. In Dont move the guy there is an egg. You must kill it before the time is up (like 30 seconds) or the game crashes, but the marine cant reach the egg.

how do they do that?

I just went inside the map and looked at the trggers and found a disabled psi disrupter..

Maybe StarCraft can't form a psi disrupter and the whole game crashes once you look at it?

There's a few things like these. They either add in something like a disabled unit that Starcraft can't handle or an independent Starport. Blizzard probably wasn't expecting people to be able to get to these "hidden" units and triggers, but they did, so now there are units available that are bugged or that Starcraft can't handle.

I've never played Dont Move the Guy before.. So I wouldn't know this one. But did it have any disabled units in it?

In don't move the guy or whatever that you have to kill the egg on, they probably just spawn buildings that crash the game around the area to make sure that you crash at the end of the 30 seconds.

Yes, you disable something that should not be disabled so when you look at it, it cant display anything so it crashes.

there is a point to these maps:

some nerd dork wanted to get famous (which i guess he is, though nobody looks at the names)

anyways, let's look at the bright side, in two or three years everyone will be like us (sick of those maps) and rpg and sunken d will b back in style! (o great)

I'm getting kind of tired with both of those type of maps. I don't think they will ever be in style again. They were good at first but then they (At least Sunken Defense) Got out of hand, and every single one was spelled Sunken Defence instead of Defense 'cos since the first good version of it wasn't protected, millions of people made different versions without changing the names to make it easier for them. You can never find one decent Sunken Defense map anymore.

"Defence" is the correct spelling in Europe i think. Like colour. But in America its Defense. I also thought it was pretty stupid. Also i hate it when in breifings there are so many damn typos its just stupid. "Bring Kerrigin to the becon, and destroy all the other hydraliks and devouers."
