Practicing the TheCore-layout, I just had an idea...
How cool would it be to have a map that forces you to use camera hotkeys, splitted controll groups and hotkeys for skills (this especially for the beginners)?
The map would contain features such as:
- You can`t hotkey single hatches, only put all hatches on one hotkey for producing
- You can`t click with your mouse on abilities
- If you send your army to attack something and it contains atleast two different categories of units - such as category 1 (roach, ling) category 2 (Infestor) category 3 (BL) - It dies. Bum! You getter gonna use these splitted control groups!!
note: I am not sure if splitted control groups are important to justify this penality
Ideally the map would force these following these things, but there are problems with the execution:
- You have to use your camera hotkeys to get to your bases or scouting locations.
Problem: You can also get there by mouse and minimap.
Possible solution: Unable mouseclicking on minimap.
Problem: How to set these camera locations? Scrolling is too slow.
Possible solution: Lock the minimap after 5-6 minutes, you have to set these camera locations before?
- Use hotkeys for skills. Kind of obvious, right?
Solution: Prohibit clicking on interface bar for skills with mouse.
Problem: Can´t think of too much. Technically there might be some, tho^^
And stuff like this, creep tumors, CGs and so on
The question is want to discuss is: Would such a map make sense? And would it be possible to implement these features into a sc2map by using map editor? The things I´ve written above are just indented as starting point!
Also a little poll:
