Lost Temple Mega Archon v0.1.0.2

This bundle is marked as useful / simple. Simplicity is bliss, low effort and/or may contain minor bugs.
  • Haha
Reactions: Same
Here we go. A simple map i had in mind for a couple of months.

Type
Melee/Altered Melee (In some cases the map is identical to Melee)

Warcraft III Version
☼ 1.30.4 (Recommended).
☼ 1.29.X and later (Might work but is not away from surprises).

Description
☼ 4 teams of 1 to 6 players.
☼ Each team controls one player, so there's one main player and 0 to 5 other which have nothing but the shared control of their leader.
☼ If the main one leaves the game, the next player gets everything.
☼ Works only for human player.
☼ The first player in the team will be the chosen race.
☼ A multi board shows who is controlling which team.
☼ Vanilla gameplay (if there's one player per team nothing changes).
☼ Lost temple with no other any changes (beside concerning spawn points and init).

Some other remarks
☼ Might be used as a template. You just have to put the custom "spawn point" at each of team spawns and edit the number of teams plus the number of players.
☼ Putting some IA might do nothing, or break the game in worse cases.
☼ More brains doesn't mean better team, cohesion is the key.
☼ Leak free and open source, tho waiting for more updates might make it easier and worth the wait.
☼ Will need some further tests to hunt down bugs and exploits.

Might comes next
☼ Other map variant (Emerald Garden, Marketplace or any other symmetrical maps)
☼ JASS optimization (right now it's still in GUI).
☼ GUI-friendly configuration.
☼ Code comments.
☼ Colored Multiboard with better data.
☼ Multiboard destroyed when there's one player per team.
☼ Reverse Archon (1v1 but each player is controlling more than one base).
☼ Reverse Archon variants (different types of teams than just 1v1).

Changelog
☼ Version 0.1
- Uploaded.

☼ Version 0.1.0.1
- Small tweaks about init, deleting some leftovers of previous tests


☼ Version 0.1.0.2
- Fixed a strange crash for player 1 at start
- Fixed creeps deletion around spawn points
- Fixed multiboard size and rows

If you want to use my map
Do as you please. You can edit freely without my permission and even without crediting me. The map is simple and shows a way to do it, so anyone can easily make this, though beginners would get a good basis thus without worrying about doing everything.

Feel free to contact me if you encounter any problems.

This sounds very interesting. Could be usefull for like training players to get better using discord. Mods hate this type of "simple" modifications (1) though so good luck getting it approved. I recommend bundling up several maps so that it feels more...
