The map currently has 3000 doodads. It used to have 700 more but I cut down as a precaution against lag. I might add another 100 or so all over the lanes and such in the next version.:D

Ì didn't think that doodads caused all that much lag...

Well me too but better safe than sorry. :)

Lag is usually cause because of crappy computers (like our second one at home) or the modem users...

If dooads is kept UNDER 7000, it shouldn't be a problem (BUT it's a hell of an anoyance to edit in WE, as it causes lag problems THERE)

I currently have arround 4200 in mine, and I reduced it from 5800, will become a little less, but the map is still packed :)

I can't wait till I get the chance to try your map again Daemos, and I promisse, I will give you feedback, as always :)

Keep up the good work buddy :)

Thanks buddy.

I realize the thing about crappy computers, I'm trying to make the map playable on all computers. Thankfully my tiling skills make up for the lack of "extra" doodads" but I have added some more reaching 3100 right now. Also, WoC has a weather system which changes weather conditions constantly so that might influence gameplay speed and lag but so far, it didn't lag at all for me with the weather system. :)

One thing so far, after first game :)

MAJOR bug, one of my teammates took over the orc outpost, and this happend. (first few waves worked fine)

AND I DIED WHILE LOOKING THERE :P lol

You mean you were gangraped by those raiders? :ggani:

What exactly happened? Are you sure no one was around to kill you?
10-19-2003, 10:11 PM#14
Zachary_Shadow
Ohh, the killing part was because my teammate pinged the map and I moved my view to there to take a look, died cos of that at the other side of the map :P

The raiders were ours, but they weren't moving (keeping their territory I guess :P ) hehe

Check the spawn / order move trigger for that spawn, it's not working proberly.

Else than that, I didn't see anything...maybe..I'll mention it:

The VERY nice skin of EvilIllidan (WICH, you can send to me IF you want!!!) has a rather suckky Ultimate. The aoe is so small, that you can MAX fit in 2 or 3 units, and you need to be fast or they will move / die, before you get to use it. In the end, I never used my ultimate. The character is awesome, but the ulti is his biggest flaw. Just a bit more aoe on that one, and he is perfect :)

Send me the skin/model? :) If u don't want to, I can understand, It's just SO cool :)

The skin isn't mine I got it off some site, I'll try to find the link again. :)
