Does your map not work anymore when not using the Map Initialization event?

Elapsed time 00.00 comes after the initialization, in personal experience both have their uses and it really depends on your map and what you're trying to achieve.

The lag is pretty much unavoidable, either you do it at start or spread it throughout the first minute of the game

Did you know a map would work without triggers at all? It can be still playable.
What are triggers? - One can create triggers to catch a certain in-game event, to make actions.

• Your map works without using MapInit events.
• You ask if your map needs MapInit events to work.

Sense?!

Map Initialization is absolutelly needed, but a map dosn't have to have a trigger that starts at Map Initialization.

Then one can also say "A unit casts" is also absolutely needed, but one doesn't need a trigger registered to it?
