(10) Fimbulwinter 4.0

Well, Fimbulwinter is a mix of many genres I guess. I would say mostly dota+melee (EDIT: Much closer to melee, far from DOTA. I swear). Anyways, the map is based on norse mythology. It's about the battle between the dudes in Valhalla and the Jotuns. You have no idea how many hours I've spent on wikipedia to get info on heroes and items.

Goal:
-Destroy enemy base

Gameplay:
- You start of in your base from which you can train several types of units.
- With your units you can kill creeps or enemies, whatever you wish really.
- To gain money you can capture "Build Areas" and build Soulforges(Farms that spawn money) and a few other buildings. Build areas are the only spots you can build. And making Soulforges is pretty much the only way to get more money.
- With the money you can either buy upgrades for your units, buy items or more buildings.
- If you get as much as 45 k gold you can research the Ragnarok upgrade. Which will make it a whole lot easier to win. This feature can also be turned off by the host if he wishes.

Features:
- 24 unique heroes who are all gods or heroes in norse mythology. Trym, Thor, Odin, Loke etc
- Many costum items and units
- You can play 1 v 1 but you will have the most fun with 5 v 5.
- I'm pretty sure it's 99% typo-free. Yey.
And alot of other stuff i guess.

Enjoy

DotA is not a game type...and you submitted and map...without the map.

I'll fix it in a sec. I'm kinda used to wc3sear when this went auto.

Edit: Fixed

DotA is a game type. Words mean what the marjority of users want it to mean :)

And DoTA for the majority of people here means crap map.

Also, AoS IS the word for the majority of people, as you have to factor in SC players (ie: most of South Korea).

Anyway, you have put almost no information about the map, you need to add a lot more.

Who cares if it's a maptype or not. You understand what I mean right?

More info coming up!

Edit: Updated, did i miss anything?

This sounds exciting by theme and actual features.

AOS was just a 'map' and not a genre anyway. If one genre can take its name from a map, let people call their maps a DOTA - its not like you can't understand that.

Credits due to:

- KaTaNa, for local handle variables functions.

Problems:

- CreateTempText function leaks, you need to null the local texttag variable.
- Function Trig_TPs_Actions leaks 2 locations.
- Trig_Choose_Hero_Actions leaks 2 locations.
- Trig_Hire_Text_Actions leaks locations.
- Trig_Valhalla_Harospawn_Actions leaks 2 locations and a special effect.
- Trig_Utgard_HS_Actions leaks locations and special effects.
- Revive hero triggers all leak a location each.
- "An Valhallan"? Should be 'a'.
- Trig_Valhalla_Cam_Lock_Actions leaks locations.
- Waits should be avoided in favour of game time waits.
- Trig_Rain_of_Chaos_Actions leaks locations and special effects.
- List goes on, I can't be bothered to go through JASS code converted from GUI.

Highly recommend that you use Vexorian's optimiser, as it will fix all the BJs (so they don't leak), make it load faster, and save space.

I have used Vex's optimizer...

Anyways, they don't affect the game very much. And about that a/an typo, I said 99% typo free right :).

Rules say nothing about memory leaks. As long as the game is not laggy Iguess memory leaks will not influence judging.

Ok, obviously you didn't use all the options, so my mistake.

Main problem is most maps performance wise is memory leaks. You can quite easily tell the difference after a while.

I don't think I will be much of a problem. And if it becomes one I'll fix it in the near future.

I would play it but the word "DOTA" disables my left mouse button when attempting to click download map. Sorry.

It's far from DOTA, much closer to melee.

The next person to mention DotA is going to get -10 rep and a boot up their ass.
