Maybe Spike Balls should kill you but only hurt you when getting near them while walking. You should only die if getting into them after being punched. Aim hasn't got a DISBTN. The icon looks green on F10/game pause. You can find out how to make one...

  1. Maybe Spike Balls should kill you but only hurt you when getting near them while walking. You should only die if getting into them after being punched.
  2. Aim hasn't got a DISBTN. The icon looks green on F10/game pause. You can find out how to make one or add one for it. Learn about icons:
    Button Manager v1.8.2
    BLP Lab v0.5.0
    Complete Icon Tutorial - All About Icons
    How to Make an Icon
  3. Maybe if you could keep the order the unit had when sliding so that it won't just stop after getting off the ice.
  4. What about punching barrels into enemies instead of dying when walking near them?
  5. Placing the sheep and going right in front will make it explode. The delay should be higher for the one who places it, else that player is forced to quickly go the opposite way after placing the sheep and then circumventing it.
  6. You cannot change direction on the ice. Most slide maps let you do that. Also would be nice if two players colliding while on the ice would die or get hurt. You can't even punch or throw rocks either.
  7. Throw Rocks doesn't have a hotkey at least a visible one. All abilities should. The ability should also have a cooldown.
  8. Why can't you pass the flag, drop it?
  9. Icons/abilities change position within the Jar of Mayhem. Some might have the same position/coordinates. You can fix this in the Object Editor.
I hope you improve it over time.

Approved.

ADDITIONAL NECESSARY INFORMATION
  • A credits list in the map thread description is required where the names of the resource (models, skins, icons, spells, sound etc.) authors are mentioned along with the specific resource. It would be a luxury to have links leading to the used resources. Credits in the Quest Log would be appreciated too.
  • A detailed changelog in the first post would be helpful to reviewers and notify fans about the newest implementations to your map.
  • Map thread tags are important. Please use those that fit and not more or none.

Hey those all look like wonderful suggestions. Thinking about being able to steer and be able to attack and such on the ice is an excellent idea, I would set so that if you are punched you lose the ability to steer for x amount of seconds after and... Anyway you've got my brain burning now. :)

Thank you for taking the time to test, review and approve my map.

Glad you like it! I'm working on a big update which includes being able to steer and fight on the ice, AI players, 24 player support and a bunch of other changes. Feel free to use anything I've done, the map is not protected.

Yo a tip to what deep said :
Maybe Spike Balls should kill you but only hurt you when getting near them while walking. You should only die if getting into them after being punched.

You can add all of the spikes into a unit group and do a:
Every 0.04 seconds pick every unit within 75 range of picked unit deal and deal 2 damage if the unit is human/zombie.
pick every unit within 50 range of picked unit deal and deal 20 damage if the unit is human/zombie.

Something like that, would be more realistic - experiment with the numbers. :) - it could graze you if it's not on point, if its a direct hit you could use 25 range for an insta kill Practice makes perfect - I have this in may map or smth simmilar who knows :p.

Hope it helps

You could also benefit from this slide system.

I just uploaded an update and I added that suggestion, albeit a bit differently. It's worked into the slide trigger for explosive punch. You will explode into a bloody mess when you are punched into a spike ball and when one gets punched into you, but only take minor damage from walking into one.
