This Map was made from scratch inspired by the original by interflo, aiming to continue it's legacy.
This variant tries to please both escapers and builders by providing not only tons of objects and units for builders to use,
but also 4 startmazes for the escapers, as well as custom spells, items and cosmetics.
EBR also comes with abuse protection, preventing evil builders ruining the game for others.

•Gameplay•
The players are split into 2 teams, the Builders and the Escapers.
For the Escapers the map plays like a normal Escape: They pick one of 4 Heros, each with different Spells and run/jump/slide through a maze full of traps and monsters.
The Builders in the other hand have a unique task, having to create a maze for the Escapers ingame, with plenty of different objects and units. The Map's Terrain is split into 4 Starting Mazes and 17 free regions.
Any Builder can claim a Region, buying a Terrain at the Region Administration.
Every Builder also has his own Builder-unit, Terrainmenus and Unit Producers, which provide the essentials for building mazes.

This is a very unique way of escape games, and I like it. The menu is complex and there are probably lots of options. The only problem I might have with it - isn't it gonna take lot of time for the one team to build the path, traps, monsters? I can see around 19 zones if I counted them well. That would take lot of time to build
Other than that, it looks awesome. Will try it later
It surely has alot of options!
And there are many Regions, but Builders dont have to fill them all before Escapers can enter.
They go through 1 maze after another and while they are escaping the Buidlers build.
You should at least have 2 builders tho.
If you specify your wishes i got probably do something,
but i dont know how the gameplay in Escape Editor Extreme was and the Map doesnt work anymore.
ALso they didnt have starting mazes, which imho sucks.
Well it doesnt work for me with 1.23 too, but ur information is very vague anyway.
It sounds like things to implement, not completely change the gameplay.
Maze and items n stuff doesnt rly hlep a BIT.
If you want things in this map, specify them.
i can give good suggestion to creator of the map Frotty you must add save system for maze -save A,b,c,d,.... we dont care if code is long when we cr8 it once latter wont change if possible ofc that way you can make it only 1 builder and 2 more escapers mb you wont change the numbers of the esc/mazers but you must try put save system that would be awsome
Well, creating the savesystem wouldnt be such a big deal, as you already said, its the loadcode.
It wouldnt be just "long", it would be enormous.
Just think about it.
For each Object and Unit and even Tile in your region, you at least need 3 values:
-type
-xcoordinate
-ycoordinate
the type could probably be saved in a 2 char hex value.
But you cant compress the coordinates much (the zip-method would be a way, but implementing it wouldnt be easy and it still wouldnt compress enogh) so you got at least 4 chars, if coordinates are between 9999 and -9999.
So for even the simplest thing there would be 10 chars in your code.
So if you would want to save the terrain (using my field-matrix) for region A, which contains 45 * 12 tiles , you would have 3780 chars already.
45 * 12 * 7
(7 because 6 chars for x y and 1 for the terraintype)
To be honest, you could compress that by calculating squares and lanes ofc, so lets guess a compression of 40 %.
We would have 2268 chars then.
And that are only the chars of the terrain.
Then add all object and Units, some of them might contain rallypoints and orders we want to save.
So all in all we would have a code longer than 5000 chars.
And I dont think you want to type in 250 lines of chars (because you cant type 5k at once) just to load 1 maze.
Remaking it would take less time and effort for sure.
----
To make you happy:
New version is coming soon...i remade all of the code and converted to parentbased structs, it allows me to create new objects much easier and the map runs with better performance.
Finally new Version...it might has some bugs, but most of them should be fixed.
The conversion and bugfindig took a long time but now I finally came to a releaseable point.
There isnt that much new content because its more like a Conversion to better coding and bugfixing.
Enjoy!
Thanks for testing go to: Gamestargamer, Feuerblume, Mo0ni[behh], Masterstryke, BeerOnTheBeach, carlor, fortress_na-f, BlauerRächer and muzzel.
Well its good that youve made an Update because i myself really like Interflo's escape maps, but did you get his permission or something for recreating his work?
And are you sure you didnt just "unprotect" it?
- I mean, the fields are just as big as in the original map.
I'm just asking, not trying to insult you.
I understand your question its not an insult.
As I wrote in the description I coded everything completely new by myself, and for the map and idea I got interflos permission (I know him) via email.
And I didnt make an Update for his map, this is a new map and got already uploaded some months ago.
Ok,thanks,
haven't have so many idea yet,
1) Add a new unit that can invisibility every 3 second(sure,people touch him DEAD)
2) More items please?(Or and increase strength another things,bomb tower damage set to 500-500?you like >.< )
3) Add kill boss mode? xD
4) another idea i am thinking
EDIT: Too many jumper will cause lag?Sometime i don't know what reason,the game hanged(Not Responding)
EDIT 2: After you reply this post,go to THW chat
The invisible Unit is an intresting idea, I'll look what I can do.
More Items will come..some time, and for the bossmode y, I will implement Bosses,
but I want it to be much more intuitive and intresting for the escapers, in 1.6 it was just a weird mess and all escapers died in an instant.
Jumpers definatly shouldnt cause lagg, ill come to the Chat now.
I am waiting for your next release ^^ Frotty
P/S:
Got idea again .__.
1) Add new terrain?
2) An unit that trained can cast spell(example Impale) , and it auto cast at same place if you selected.

eh,nevermind at terrain.I have new suggestions again @@
See the picture,
This picture like mini game,but if can,builder can build a tower(anothers)
that can load in escaper,and then escaper and control and shoot these enemies.
after that,builder will give key(or another things).
can you do that?
P/S: I found a bug,Executer,if the builder near it,executer will auto active(0.62 version doesn't have this bug)
Seriously, read the discription.
Its okay if your english is bad but dont act like stupid please.
And if they dont want the new fixes let them play 0.63k
2 things were not implemented yet but like 100+ added, crying for those?
Edit: Walls dont work for me I cant even build them
"Double free of type: baseobject" what is this? it is said again and again
What about ranks? save and load works? (Im thinking it doesnt work for builders 'cause it dont work for me
Suggestion: Ice Trap: Trap that doesnt deal damage and Freeze/stuns escaper that passes through it

Thats a bug that came with the new object system, it made me stop developing the map, its some bug I cant find which destroys mroe structs/allocates same dis or whatever.
Ranks arent included yet, but hey, map is finally approved.
When I think of a typical maze game i see spinning glaives, so why you don't make some here too?
I ever lover escape Builder so hopefully it gets hosted much.
