Multiple maps into one map. (Multiple players)

[tjordell]

Hello everyone.
I really need help cuz i want to make a map that is like the game "bomberman". And i want to create levels for the map. Like i've finished lvl 1 i will go to the next lvl. Lvl 2. How do i do that for multiple players cuz i can do that with the "campaign editor" but then, i'm only able to get 1 player who can play. And for each lv the map will be bigger and the "doodads" will be on other places. I can't figure that out...

I dont think you can make more then 1 map if you want to play multiplayer. So...
If the play area of each level isn't so big, you could just make all the levels in 1 map and then when you finish level 1 you just use a trigger to move your camera to level 2 and reveal region.
I hope it helps!

why not make a really big map (256x256? is that the biggest map size?) and make smaller areas in it. though it will limit you to like 4 areas, you can use more players in it. or if you really want more maps, you could use a save/load system much like in ORPGs, and make it that the maps (in your case, levels) you make uses them so you can add more players.

oh, and you can also use Samlag's idea. the same as mine.

EDIT: was typing and posted then i saw Samlag's post

You could as well trigger the creation of maps!

Anyway, you could use "Camera - Set current Camera bounds" to limit the camera to a single area.

FYI, if you use JNGP (Jass Newgen Pack) you can change size to 480x480 i believe, and its not possible to use campaign maps over B.net. I'm not sure about LAN games though.
