Laser Tower Concept

This is pretty much all my fiddling around combined into one map.
Features a custom UI that utilizes the mouse only.
Individually upgradeable towers.
Unlimited levels (only 2 boss levels at 10 and 20)

This is purely a concept map and will not be updated.
A full featured tower defense is in the works but do not expect anything soon, my time is limited right now.
It will include multiple tower choices, more informative UI, many types of enemies, cool bosses, and a full storyline.

If anyone wants to help me out on this I could use a person good with the data editor and story writing.

Finally this is exclusive to staredit.net as all my maps will be. Enjoy and give me comments!

OVERWATCH STATUS GO

Very, very cool! I'll have to check this out when I get home tonight. This is the reason why Blizzard wants people to sell maps on Battle.net, and I can totally understand why.

Generic concept ruined by a fatal glitch: You can upgrade a tower without enough minerals to do so.

Thank you. Fixed map uploaded. For some reason OR conditions do not work for me or I'm not utilizing them correctly...
I'll just avoid them for now I guess.

XD this is pretty much what i posted about the probe attack if anyone is curious, the laser thing is probes attack or what i like to call lightning attack
Here are some attacks that i recommend you try to put in..

Cannon Attack(Freeze/Ice) - Add temporary freeze buff if possible
Hellion Attack (Fire)
Zerg Drone Attack (Poison) Add Poison Buff If Possible
Marine/Fast Acting Acting (Machine Gun)
Pysonic Storm (Lightning Storm)

It's an archon attack.

EDIT: Nevermind, there's another one with probe attack.

Screenshot looks like it's the archon psionic shockwave though.

-_- orly? let's just ask the map maker...

See how both attacks are almost identical

Anywho... probes attack does not have any splash to my knowledge while archons attack does so he can make it as upgrade :O

I see extra discharge lines when using archon attacks.

I looked at the map. The light tower is archon attack and the twin laser is probe attack. If the first picture is related to the second picture then it suggests that they are light towers.

As stated above we can either be correct, although what i stated about how they look similar ;O

So meh

Just played the map. Built light towers to confirm that they look the same as the other pictures


Also, if you take a closer look at the map you will see that the three different towers are represented by three different buildings. Only the light towers use supply depots.

Twin laser towers are sensor towers.

The attacks are indeed Archon attacks.
I did fiddle around with many others but due to my data editor deficiencies I decided to scrap them for this.
They can be implemented by changing their cost to minerals but the upgrades do not work on them and are horribly out of balance.
The 2 other towers are basically supply depots with their models changed.

Anyone make it past the level 20 boss?

Is there a level limit? I'm at level 32 right now. I cheated though and gave myself 10k mins to start with. Also, are upgrades supposed to stop taking away money once you upgrade a tower?

Cheating ruins the challenge. There is no level limit. There was a major bug in the first version I posted. Download the new one.

Nah, I'm on level 37 right now with only six towers with the next upgrade costing 21025 and they're slowly getting worn down even though I'm getting enough to upgrade after about every level or two. I might even need to make more towers, which shows hard it's getting considering I started out with 10k :P Cheating may ruin the challenge, but I'm having fun now ;)

Actually after level 5, upgrades won't do anything. I only implemented them to 5 levels. lol

Oh, LOL. I thought the zerglings must have had crazy life or something since the dialog says I have 9k attack.

Ah, they finally broke through my six towers at level 39.

That is probably the max then assuming you had max towers on each build spot.
