LOTR: 2nd Age (Advanced Trigger Help Needed)

Before I start let me just say I am looking for ADVANCED help in regards to triggers for this map, jass knowledge as a prerequisite. But let me tell a little about the mapLOTR: The Second Age is a upgrade spawn rts style map based loosely around the 2nd age of middle earth. Here are some screens...

Angmar


Dol Guldur


Minas Ithil


Fornost



This map is on its 4th version, but I am looking for a little help to make it better. My main problem is that although it isnt huge lag, or even continuous, this map has problems where during large battles, it tends to get laggy. I have tried to combine triggers, destroy used ones, offer alternative (smaller) views, and all have worked. But there is still more lag.

So what I really need is a top triggerer more knowledgable than myself (I have a large understanding of GUI, having worked in the editor for 2 years) to help me re-arrange my triggers further and kill lag...'

EDIT: If interested, please contact me @ [email protected] or PM me

How many units is it on the screen during a battle? It sounds like that could be the problem

the main prob is the the ammount of units, you can have battles where 6+ players have 150+ units fighting all at once, that coupled with an ass load of doodads, no matter how good your trigger ing, is going to cause some lag

Yea, the lag is somewhat unavoidable...but the little things have helped, and the new little things will only help it further. Thats my hope at least =P

the terrain looks great btw, well if not great pretty good at least

and yeah there are just too many units scale the numbers down and it's good I think.
