[quote=name:Rantent]What qualifies as a concept map?[/quote] Well, pretty much an experiment to test something. I know you have some, such as your Disruption Web to Move Unit map, correct?

Okay, so what are the real rules? Does it have to be test maps for new concepts? Or are test maps for basic concepts to help new people out? What are the limits? Also: [url]http://Falkoner.CoW.GooglePages.com/Maps.html[/url] My tests compilation :P

My tests compilation

[quote=name:Falkoner]Okay, so what are the real rules? Does it have to be test maps for new concepts? Or are test maps for basic concepts to help new people out? What are the limits?[/quote] It doesn't neccessarily have to be a whole new thing, just a test map. If you go into the Maplantis Database under "Experimental Maps", you should get the idea of what they are. EDIT: The link to the download of your Tests Compilation is broken, and they have to be maps authored strictly by you. However, I will add it in the Database.

Here's my starting piece: [attach=912] it shows the difference between using waits and using Deaths in order to play music at different game speeds, simply stand on the top beacon to use deaths, the bottom to use waits, change the game speed and see the different effects. You will notice that waits do not change based on game speed, while death counts do. Sorry, I tried to make direct links when I first made the website so the links randomly go down, here's a link that will always work: [url=http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?epszzdwgnkn]

By download link, I mean a Mediafire link, or SEN Database link, etc. However, I will take the liberty to get a link for you, but don't expect me to do it again.

Meh, I guess he deserves something for his efforts, but a name color is a LOT of minerals..

I got like a hundred of these dumb things lying around. I could probably end this ladder if I zipped them all up and posted them. :P

Edit: No I'm quite literal. I just don't release them unless they're in the form of a proper map as a matter of policy. Rush and AG alone represented like over 50 various concepts I've prototyped into their own maps, for instance. Though I do post some of my more practical ones on occasion for others to make use of. Such as that Starport launcher one (which I'm also making into a map, by the way)

I have very few test maps. This is mainly because whenever I make a test map, I usually attempt many more tests on the same map. Many maps that test terrain end up testing trigger systems, going through large changes where I almost completely erase the previous map. My terrain maps in themselves are constantly changing. But I suppose you could call most of the maps I've made a concept map, as each tries to test at least one, most of the time several new concepts. Yeah, I can only think of four maps that weren't concept maps.
