I cannot find any reason for this. basicaly u load the map, and after a few minutes of leaving it on, it freezes wc3 and u hafta do a hard reset. it may be just my comp, but its quite fast so i doubt it. can anyone look and try to fix this?

I haven't looked at the map yet but when I usually get this problem it's because I have a never ending loop which I over looked. Just pretend you're the computer and go through your triggers.

If you don't have any triggers then I don't know what it could be.

--EDIT--

Well, I've played it now and it doesn't crash on me. I don't know what your problem is. Couldn't find any endless loops either. Sorry bud, don't know what to suggest.

the endless loop occurs when you select a unit..

the endless loop trigger:

TRIGGER: Maintain selection
EVENT: Player 1 Selects a unit
Every 2 secs of game time
CONDITON: none
ACTION: Selection - Select Cel Damage Controls 0000 <gen>

the problem:
when P1 selects a unit, the trigger will auto select Cel Damage Controls 0000 for P1. When the trigger is auto selecting the CDC 0000 <gen> building for player 1, the trigger fires again because wc3 thinks that player 1 has selected a unit again, not a trigger. = endless loop... (put a game text message action at the beginning of the actions queue, test map, select a unit and see)

how to solve: just remove that goddamn event

==edit==
oh yea ur map freezed my wc3 3 times and crashed my entire comp once... i was waiting to dl the sims houseparty for my sis at like Remotely Queued 4... after i rebooted my comp i got Remotely Queued 28.. damn
