I'll say what can't be initialized so you don't include them in the list.

Timers, Leaderboards, Multiboard, JASS function (Preventing game restart).

Well thats what are on my mind for now.

I often create some of these map inis, so im not creating alot of Inits, tell them to try add this:

• Map Initalization
  • Events
    • Map Initalization
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • ----- Main Initalization -----
    • For each integer 1 to 1 (Integer A) do multiple actions
      • Loop actions
        • ----- Visibility -----
          • For each integer 1 to 1 (Integer A) do multiple actions
            • Loop actions
              • Actions
        • ----- Variables -----
          • For each integer 1 to 1 (Integer A) do multiple actions
            • Loop actions
              • Actions
    • ----- System Ini -----
    • ----- And so on -----

this is how i usually do

Action list... Pointless...

Native list... Useful...

Anyway, What ever you do, do not create a quest in a struct, scope or library initializer. It results in a fatal error while WC3 loads.

And yes, Quests. Thanks Dr. Super Good
