Hello. I actually ran out of options. About few weeks ago, I was making this map and succesfully tested it. (It isn't finished so far but I wanted to test some triggers) From then I made few changes and then let it be, cause I needed to finish other projects. Now I wanted to try it and see what is working from already done and surprisingly it crashes. I've checked section in this forum and learned that my error code 004CE1C4 and that should: I've checked my size and its 192x256 so in SC standarts. Also counted my locations and I have 50 locations used (while max should be at least 64). I dont really have much triggers here or units so I don't have any idea what is wrong. Sadly my backup database contained only 1 file and its basicly this version included, just with one more trigger but it have same error. I provide full error log and my map and fully appreciate any help.

I'm getting the nooks and crannies error when I try to launch the map. On nooks and crannies, Heinermann says "There's a limit of 5000 paths. If the "path limit"(that is what I'm calling it) is exceeded, you will get the error." I'm not too familiar with the error myself, but I gutted a bunch of your terrain, namely widening corridors, making wide walls into skinny walls, and removing the few doodads you had placed, and eventually got it to launch. With scmdrafts new ability to toggle on a pathing overlay, you can see how SC splits up a map into regions. I just tried to reduce the number of regions.

I'll attach it so you can see what I did.

Attachments:

If you open the debug log output in ScmDraft it will tell you how many regions are in use.

Oh nice, thanks. I was actually wondering about that.

Also, I took some cues from eternal death and messed around with putting unwalkable terrain on top of the roof pieces, and was able to get the region count down that way as well. Also attached as reference.

Oh, okay thanks. I didn't know about region or path limit. Anyway, thank you. But I cant find the number of regions in scmdraft, if I open the Debug - Show Error Output its empty

You have to enable the display of the regions after opening the log. (Or change some terrain if they are already visible) Then you will get something like this:

Map.Pathfinder - 19:16:59.0578 - Debug::Created initial regions. 963 regions created, with 963 in use. (Starcraft nooks + crannies limit: 5000)
Map.Pathfinder - 19:16:59.0592 - Debug::Merged regions smaller than 6 tiles. 659 regions still in use. (Starcraft nooks + crannies limit: 5000; Merge threshold limit: 2500)
Map.Pathfinder - 19:16:59.0903 - Debug::Created 2192 split regions.

Oh okay that seems better, in this "53". This seems like good solution, anyway I don't get why sc count roof as walkable terrain

Ok thanks I see it now. So the number 2192 counts against this 5000 limit?

The first number you see is the one you need to get under 5000. In your original map, I think the number was over 6000 or so. The split region number can be much higher without error.

Okay well, I have in debug about 7 lines. Every line decrease in total. 6051 at first line and last line at 2395 in use (when i make one change i editor in create these 7 lines within few miliseconds)

SC tries to combine adjacent regions to get under 2500 in a loop, and since this is debugging log it dumpt it at every step.

Ok so to be clear after my last step I have 5928 in use, then lines where it goes ".. 2915 still in use" and decreasing. So I have to make that first line under 5000 if i get it right?

Yep, if you look at my two test maps, I got that "Created initial regions" number below 5000.

Okay thank you
