The StarEdit Development User Uberlist

Compiled by Poeir, with the aid of various other SCM Development forum users


Whether or not you wanted it, you have it now. These are the archives of the Uberlists on the subject of StarEdit. Just look at them. ;-) 100 questions is a lot, and as such every 100 questions a new volume will be started.

The StarCraft Map Development User Uberlist. Compiled by Poeir(with special thanks to RobertB, ScottM, eht, Weblar and Lord_Toady!), so some may be inaccurate due to faulty memory or guesses. Guesses are clearly marked. If any of these are incorrect, please reply and fix them. These take all the recent questions asked on the SCM Development Forum and answer them, so I don't have to waste my posts. ;) Some questions are from other places, these are marked with an asterisk(*) Most non-StarEdit questions have been removed. Oldest questions first.

By the way, I do know what I'm talking about as much as a non-beta tester could(not bragging just removing worry). I have talked with AlenL many times regarding my upcoming campaign, and thus have got similar answers from AlenL.

There is actually already a system "in play" for naming maps, it goes like this: "(#ofplayers)mapname", so that all the numbers of players are in one spot. So if I were to create "mycampaign.scm" I'd name it "(3)mycampaign.scm" instead. It has also been requested you put your name somewhere. (I have a mission briefing of just credits where the next missions victory condition is "Elasped time is 0 or more seconds".)

Questions? ICQ UIN 9211372, though I will most likely not immediately authorize you. I've had some difficulty with people in the past.

The pointless mini-mission statement: The goal of these Uberlists was to avoid spam, because the questioner would know about StarEdit, and there would not be redundant questions. Looks pretty good!

Okay, so that's all there are so far, but more will come. Such as yet MORE volumes. Ha!

Actually, no, there won't. This page will no longer be updated due to the almost complete lack of questions on SCM Development.

Also, I'm now considering the possibility of posting SCMs here. Note, only considering.
