Status: Rejected

There are still leaks in the folders Misc Command, Creeps, BOT, BOT triggers.

The idea is really too simple and the game can get boring after a few minutes. Overall it doesn't have any unique features or gameplay systems.
The terrain could also use some grass (maybe animated grass).
The map is acceptable, however it will stay rejected until all of the leaks are destroyed.
Also, list everyone under credits here and put some screenshots in the description.
A preview image wouldn't hurt either:

Hidden

To add a preview image, resize the image to 256x256 or 128x128 using gimp and save it as .tga. Import the image and change its path to 'war3mapPreview.tga'.

Contact Me once you've updated the map

*No description
*No type
*No category

You've broken some rules my friend, if you don't update your map soon, it will be rejected.
Also:

'Suggested Players: 1 For now'

What's that supposed to mean, isn't this supposed to be a melee map or something, I can see 4 starting points as well in the preview image.

Hold on...I'll refix everything right now.I'll reupload the map afterwards.

EDIT:We'll I did my best and the best,I did.I hope this will make it better and also 'unbreak' the rules.BTW it's not a melee map...
I'll edit my descriptions and make it look better soon.Also,I'll add changelogs,maybe some screenshots and a preview picture.

Thx Vengeancekael.

Welcome to Peasant War!Command your peasants to conquer other peasants .The fully playable PW will be coming out soon. -8/12/2011

Would look better if it was like this:

Welcome to Peasant War! Command your peasants to conquer other peasants! The fully playable PW will be coming out soon. -8/12/2011

You could also use a tool like Quick Colorizer to add colors to the map's ingame description.

• Player2Status
  • Events
    • Map initialization
  • Conditions
    • (Player 2 (Blue) controller) Equal to None
  • Actions
    • Unit - Create 5 Peasant for Player 2 (Blue) at (Position of Spawner 0012 <gen>) facing Default building facing degrees

There's a leak in that trigger, which will eventually cause the map to lag.
In order to fix it you need to store the position of Spawner 0012 in a variable, then create 5 peasents at the variable's value and then clear the variable, thus deleting the leak:

• Player2Status
  • Events
    • Map initialization
  • Conditions
    • (Player 2 (Blue) controller) Equal to None
  • Actions
    • Set Point = (Position of Spawner 0012 <gen>)
    • Unit - Create 5 Peasant for Player 2 (Blue) at Point facing Default building facing degrees
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_Point)

You should merge all of the spawning triggers into one trigger and remove any other point leak.
There are a lot of other things you can improve in your triggers, but it's always the problems noted above, so you should know what to do with the rest of the triggers.

The map's terrain doesn't look good, animated grass doodads would be nice, some custom tree models, a river maybe, some lighting, ...
The map's gameplay is also pretty simple, maybe add a way to upgrade your peasents, so that they eventually become knights or something.

Oh and you need to add triggers which will finally end the map when a player achieves victory. I'll be telling you how to soon.

 

[Vengeancekael]

The custom script removes the leak after the unit has been created. If you turn off the trigger then the leak is still there.

And no you don't really need to credit me ;P

Nice one.

Great, I spent nearly half of my day to FIX this map everyday and all I get is another reject from you.

I can add more features and random event, that's fine... but destroying leaks.. I'm not good at that. That is why I go around asking people for help in triggering problems like you stated, Leaks. I really need someone to SHOW an example or some sort. Maybe a video or just a simple tutorial and I will work as hard as I can to fix the problem. How is a man gonna fish without knowledge?.

See the others maps they are better
