That looks killer! I can't wait to be allowed to play custom maps, will be so much fun to test all this stuff out.

you might be able to play custom maps only porb is that you can only choose blizzard maps in the selection so i'm guessing a simple rename sc2maps to s2ma along with just simply placing it in the cache wouldn't work.

How do you rotate the map without actually having to flip it? (I just want to spin everything)

I want to kill the Data Editor.
My god is it user unfriendly. Takes 10 times as long as Warcraft 3's editor to do anything other than change two or three values on default units (such as increasing a unit's scale, which everyone loves so much to do according to all the editor youtube videos).
I guess when people start creating custom editor UIs (very doable according to a Q&A) which could do things like sorting the fields by the most commonly edited fields or just in general helping with the fact that there's 100000 fields to edit - things will become easier.

Good stuff so far everyone. I want to properly polish my map before I release it, but I should be done in another couple of days. And I agree Data Editor is like WC2 Data Editor (i.e. BAD BAD BAD).

Just finished fighting spirit!
It still needs doodads and some work on the textures, but the layout is done
-Center base has rich geysers which return 6 per trip instead of 4!
-All naturals can be walled in with forge gateway cannon side-by-side
-All gasses in main are facing the 3rd base to maintain orientation
-cannot build on bridge or around it
-cannot walk across the spiky area between main and 3rd.
-cannot walk on the borders of the map
-cannot walk on any of the cliff edges around the naturals or the middle

It's in the "points" section.

Start locations are in the "points" layer.

Looks amazing! :D
Once you're satisfied with the doodads and textures and cosmetics and such, upload it here so everyone can enjoy your work! :D

awesome job

Does anyone know if its possible to rotate the whole canvas in a clock/counter clock wise direction? I want to make my map perfect, but I can't tell if the back of this area is correct without looking at it.
