Um, When i did all u said the timer board thing didn't show on map

Try it at game time = 1 second or so, Map Initialization doesn't work for everything.

i have another question, when i make the heroes range farther like its normally 500 i want it 3000 i make it that but when in a game its not 3000, why is this?

 

[Ice]

You need to increase the unit's Acquisition Range to at least the same number.
