It is way to simple. There isn't any diversity in the game, modes, anything. Boring. The AI is very, very stupid. Red always plays first. That's not fair. I won the match and the computer placed a unit after I had won, that could bug. Very simple, I repeat it, I don't think it is anywhere near approval, Rejected.

many bugs, we can select all places and then bug

That should be impossible because of these functions:

Function #1

• Game - Disable drag-selection functionality (Disable drag-selection box)

This is obvious, you can't drag-select

Function #2

• Set TempUnitGroup = (Units currently selected by Player 1 (Red))
• If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
  • If - Conditions
    • (Number of units in TempUnitGroup) Greater than 1
  • Then - Actions
    • Game - Display to (Player group(Player 1 (Red))) for 8.00 seconds the text: You can only select...
    • Skip remaining actions
  • Else - Actions

For the smart guys who try double-clicking, this calculates whether there is more than 1 unit selected or not, if it is, the actions will be skipped.

What do you mean with "and then bug"?

 

[dimitri231]

Many bugs, some units still appearing when starting other game.

Please, when you say "many bugs", describe all the bugs you have found.
That is the whole point of a comment, to remove the bugs.

That's indeed a known bug... it happened when me and A7xpwns3 were testing the map, I guess he just forgot to fix it (which isn't hard).

Any other bugs should also be mentionned, this will improve the map, thanks in advance.

Have you played it? I guess not.
I have, and it's seriously addicting... (I don't say this because I helped with some systems, it's just my experience).

+ There are going to be some game modes... they can make it more exciting

Some unselectable unit's shadows appear sometimes.

 

[a7xpwns3]

You sure? I thought I removed the shadows from the dummy units...
Anyways, I'll look into the bugs and fix them in version 1.1

Tic-Tac-Toe is a remake of the standard pencil and paper game into warcraft 3.

The terrain was great for what style of map it was. While it didn't really matter in a map like this, it looked more pleasing than 90% of maps submitted here. My only visual complain is that the circles of power were all on different angles. I recommend fixing that.

The AI was clearly a must have for this map, and fortunately, it was included. Still, the AI played terribly. Out of the several games I played, the AI was easily defeated.

Rating: 2.4 and recommended for approval

My Recommendations:
Improve the AI.
Re-name 'Quests' to 'Map Info' or 'Readme' (negligible).
Fix the angle of the circles of power.

3 problems:
1.) AI is injudicious, making single player worthless
2.) make selection pieces motionless and colisionless - otherwise when they spawn, its the games tendency to seperate flying units.
3.) Tic Tac Toe is a child's game that can be beaten with a simple strategy in which the first person to put a piece down either wins or ties.
Also, this is just an aesthetic critique, but why are the blue balls to the side of the pillars instead of on top?
2/5

Good description both in site and game.

Completely Leakless.

• Unit - Create 1 Place Piece for Player 1 (Red) at Location[(Integer A)] facing (Position of (Triggering unit))

Look at this and tell me what you leak.

Hint : Look at the facing.

Doesn't view the entire trigger, but it seems to be ok soo far.

As far as I see, apart from the AI being too noob despite the difficulty is insane and there is no clear sign of how many round a user could have. This resources is fine enough to be approve.

Just because of the concept, it doesn't mean the resources was lacking.

My vote is approve and rating is 3/5 (Useful)

 

[Dynasti]

Yay another one

Well this is ok, works. Well you could take a look at mine for inspiration Tic-Tac-Toe v2.7 - The Hive Workshop

And btw, your AI seems to just place randomly. I can win without even trying

 

[a7xpwns3]

Thank you for your reviews, everyone!
The AI has been improved in the next version, all the known bugs have been removed and I can assure you that the AI in this version will play a lot better. Red AI is easy, while the Blue AI is hard. While ap0calypse was testing it against blue's ai, he lost 1 to 3 XD

 

[a7xpwns3]

Bump.

Review moar, dammit!

 

[ap0calypse]

Maybe you should update your map?
By the way: it was about 1-2pm when I had lost against the new AI
But still, I must say that the AI has improved a lot.

 

[a7xpwns3]

Bump again!
When shall this be approved/rejected?

 

[Septimus]

if you want to bump, you need to update it.. making multiple post won't bump it to front pages.
