How do you create a fast map?

I have been looking everywhere trying to find out how to make a fast map like "fastest nasty.scm" where there is minerals right above your base (command center, nexus, hatchery). All I have been able to find is where you can download fast maps. If someone could help me with this I would greatly appreciate it.

Download this map editor

Open it, go into Options, Units. Check "Allow Stack." Uncheck "Require Mineral Distance."

Then just place a bunch of minerals on top of each other next to your players starting locations.

Thanks, I didn't realize I needed a different program.

Make sure your fastest map is balanced, the top-right player shouldn't have more room than the mid-left player.

Also, make a "Slowest Map Possible" for fun.

So 1 mineral field with 1 mineral that is recreated when mined?



None.

No, by having 1 mineral field on the other side of a 256x256 map.

Plus a maze to get to it.

Relatively ancient and inactive

Make it 2 mins, and make a barracks and a marine cost 1 min each. Whoever gets it first and gets to return to their base, or kills enemy SCV, wins.

I think terran wins in that situation... Fast attack and ability to lift makes you invincible, while you kill their nexus/hatch.

Have buildings with 255 armor blocking the minerals that respawn when you leave the area. :P

It should be melee. Play on Slowest speed as well. :P

Don't forget 500 Neutral buildings blocking the path.
