Don't you think it would be better to have the min only as the gold minerals ? It seems to mee the corners are more easy to take. Also it would make you decide between more gas and a high yield

was thinking the same thing..

also, will it be ok having 2 gas at at all gas expansions? this *could* affect the balance of the metagame in quite a big way compared to other maps which i believe only have 2 gas at the main

Most maps have 2 gas at all bases iirc

What's the point of splitting the gas into 2 if you can't have the option of putting just one at an exp? Hell, consider putting 3, it's the map maker's priviliege.

I like python fine, looking forward to this, but come on, jungle seeet!

balancing maps for reapers will probably be the hardest thing for map makers

i'm 99% sure that you'll be able to cliff on this maps in spots that you couldn't cliff in bw - example being top left to 9 nat. Already commented on upon furthur inspection

design/sc2 related questions
should reapers/stalkers/cliff mobility units be able to get to the islands from the center?
what about colossi?
muta harass in close positions is going to be basically unstoppable -_-;
high mineral yield?

The main bases don't look very close in size to me.

I think the 2 gases on 8 o clock main will interfere with the ramp and getting out?

how did you get the editor to do that, i keep trying and get stuck with a map with mineral placement, and nothing else, the map is completely black, and not smoothed. I just tried blood bath, but this cant be right, you wouldn't have smoothed that whole map and rebuilt it from scratch? or did you.

Hehe read comments now too and seems im not alone :D

I really don't think python is going to be a great SC2 map if it's directly copied with things like reapers and colossus, but hey I could be wrong.

Just add double gas on every base cause its Sc2 and it looks good

Why oh why is it not grass/jungle? Because of that, it looks really ugly imho (aestetically), but except for that I'd say it's pretty good, quite true to the original
