Sorry for spamming up your topic, lil-inferno, it was in the name of StarCraft!
That won't work. It's like telling kids if they're going to rough-house around, then play outside.

Nah, it will work. A new topic is better since it is its own topic dedicated to the discussion and it makes more sense to do it that way.

lil-inferno, if only you can add me through MSN (Windows Live Messenger), I'm willing to give you the zip file containing a few amount of maps if you still can't download anything from the download database.

Or, alternatively, you could just upload the zip on www.mediafire.com

Well, if this is too simple for a concept map I have another one.

It implements the idea of shareing resources between players. I know that resources' transformations is not a new thing but I've never seen the realization of shareing resources idea. This could be successfully used in melee-type games.

The map: http://webfile.ru/1918721

I didn't have the time yesterday to sift through all of those entires, sorry. I'll most likely get it done today.

Oooh, I didn't look at the map, but I assume that you detect when a player has more or less resources than the others, you reset their minerals to match that players, I like it, it's smexy :P

ᴄʜᴇᴇsᴇ ɪᴛ!

Resource sharing has been realized by me and Antisleep. Where you been at? We had a whole discussion of it at maplantis, and it's in the maplantis wiki.
Resource Sharing

I had originally used the "most/least" and 2 computers to do this, but it requires 2 computers to do. The new method works with no computers, and I put it into a Space Pirate War map I edited. Have a look if you really want to.



"Parliamentary inquiry, Mr. Chairman - do we have to call the Gentleman a gentleman if he's not one?"

Wow! Haven't known this ^^ Very interesting... Thanks! I'll have a look at the map a bit later.

Btw, I've just released the first (raw) version of the compiler for the MacroTriggers language I've designed for more convenient triggers codeing. Have a look at it at warbox forums (http://www.warbox.us/viewforum.php?f=45) and say what you think of it.

Really? I can't believe you guys made it like that at first, I don't see any reason to, it's quite simple to do it without computers.

So Wormer, what does the language look like? Is it like:

C:
Player 1 brings 4 Terran Marine to Anywhere
A:
Kill All Men at Anywhere for Player 1

or what? I could write a Notepad++ file for it if it is, I've been wanting something like that.

No, I did it that way first, because its even more simple to comprehend than the other way. I had never used binary countoffs before that, so it's a learning experience when you do something new.

Well, Falkoner, I haven't got much time to describe it in all details now, but in general it is SCMD-like triggers synthax:
Code
TRIGGER
OWNERS: @P(1)
CONDITIONS:
   Always()
ACTIONS:
   PreserveTrigger()
   Wait(0)
ENDT

However it is typized language. For example you can't simply specify the integer number one in the OWNERS section. Inbuild operator @P constructs a player from the number one, the same applies for units, locations and etc.

You can define variables to use them in your triggers.
Code
PLAYER p = @P(1)
INTEGER n = 1000


The language allows you easily multiplie triggers. One can specify binary countoffs like this:
Code
UNIT dc = @U("Terran Marine")
INTEGER nMaxDeg = 16

// count down values
FOR i = nMaxDeg TO 0 BY -1 DO
  TRIGGER
  OWNERS: @P(1)
  CONDITIONS:
     Deaths(@CurrentPlayer, @AtLeast, 2^i, dc)
  ACTIONS:
     PreserveTrigger()
     SetDeaths(@CurrentPlayer, @Subtract, 2^i, dc)
  ENDT
ENDL


There is a number of other features.

Thanks, I already have a Notepad++ synthax. There is a link to the archive at warbox. Have a look at it.

I just don't want to spam the ladder again :D Let's move the discussion to warbox forums:

Edit:
Well, I think I can do something like the natural language synthax if it is really nessecary. But I just think it is simplier to write triggers in function-notation...
Code
PLAYER Player1 = @P(1)
UNIT Marine = @U("Terran Marine")
TRIGGER
OWNERS: Player1
CONDITIONS:
   Player1 brings @AtLeast 4 Marine to @Anywhere.
ACTIONS:
   Kill @All @Men at @Anywhere for Player1.
ENDT

I've come to the realization that every idea that I can think of (that isn't so incredible that only I could think of it) has been thought up and created by somebody else.
In other words, lots of people make stuff that nobody else knows about.

I meant that I'm surprised they did it the way they did the first time, since the way they ended up doing was exactly what I first thought of.

Okay... sorry but I HAD to bring back to life that topic TOO because it rocked :P
Inferno, you've got some work to do on it since there's many more test maps that exists in the DLDB now ;)
Oh! And forget about the reward system, it's just dumb.

Vrael -- It is, and I could definitely use a company with a commitment to flexibility, quality, and customer satisfaction to provide effective solutions to dampness and humidity in my urban environment.
[06:50 pm]
NudeRaider -- Vrael
Vrael shouted: Idk, I was looking more for a dehumidifer company which maybe stands out as a beacon of relief amidst damp and unpredictable climates of bustling metropolises. Not sure Amazon qualifies
sounds like moisture control is often a pressing concern in your city
[06:50 pm]
Vrael -- Maybe here on the StarEdit Network I could look through the Forums for some Introductions to people who care about the Topics of Dehumidifiers and Carpet Cleaning?
[06:49 pm]
Vrael -- Perhaps even here I on the StarEdit Network I could look for some Introductions.
[06:48 pm]
Vrael -- On this Topic, I could definitely use some Introductions.
[06:48 pm]
Vrael -- Perhaps that utilizes cutting-edge technology and eco-friendly cleaning products?
[06:47 pm]
Vrael -- Do you know anyone with a deep understanding of the unique characteristics of your carpets, ensuring they receive the specialized care they deserve?
[06:45 pm]
NudeRaider -- Vrael
Vrael shouted: I've also recently becoming interested in Carpet Cleaning, but I'd like to find someone with a reputation for unparalleled quality and attention to detail.
beats me, but I'd make sure to pick the epitome of excellence and nothing less.
[06:41 pm]
Vrael -- It seems like I may need Introductions to multiple companies for the Topics that I care deeply about, even as early as Today, 6:03 am.
[06:38 pm]
Vrael -- I need a go-to solution and someone who understands that Carpets are more than just decorative elements in my home.
