Max map size increasev ANSWERED

Post by makazuwr32 »

I need for continuing development of my campain bigger than 40x40 maps.
Preferably 50x50 or even 60x60.

Can you increase size for skirmish maps to such amounts, @Stratego (dev) ?

i dont plan to - in some very exceptional cases i can give temporary right to make one - but i must check that map carefully so it will not be too long to play/too lonng time to take turn for AI or for human.
(i mean long waitings, and long travelling on map)

If to be more correct i am planning to make few big maps (2-4 in my campain) because they must be epic fights of alliances.
For player i am planning in one of maps specific trigger-based production and tech researching of non-player races (player will be elf and s/he will also have production of orcs (without giants), undeads, humans. And for that i need either some way to allow non-elven units to produce normally (in tcs, by workers and such) or i can make it trigger-based but it is map_space-consuming and because i can't make great-looking and intresting maps.

Also another thing that i want to make is map of city in which there would be quests, player will be a le to enter some buildings and such and this also requires space.


Also for my campaign i think we would need separate category because i am planning to make it really big: for now i have maps (decorations and such) for 9 maps/32-40 and roadmap (plans on paper including programming part in general) for 19 maps.
Ofc i am planning it to make independent from both gem upgrades you have and from upcoming updates them as much as possible.

Also i want to make single map among them where one gem spell must be required.

This will allow me to make storytelling maps of campain even more detailed.

Special grants?
Is that the case with random maps too?

I am not planning to make any randoms for now anyway.

If i ever will make a map for multiplayer it would be skirmish map.
