[Question] Sanctuary of Heroes

[Jahjah]

This map still needs some scripting before its finished, iam really bad at it so
if someone can help me with these things that would be great.

- Some Creeps keep stacking
- Kongor Respawns imediatly
- I want just like in "Grimm's" that how more heroes die the less defence the towers have.

To change Kongor respawn timer, you will need to open the entitylist file in your map.

Inside of it, try to search for an entity of type "Entity_BossController". The line should look something like this:

<entity angles="0.0000 0.0000 -98.2000" firstlevel="1" firstspawntime="0" icon="/shared/icons/minimap_circle.tga" iconcolor="0.6 0 0" iconsize="0.0500" index="3257" maxlevel="11" model="/tools/m.mdf" name="Kongor_Controller" position="10695.4082 7677.9038 -128.0000" respawninterval="600000" scale="1.0000" seed="0" skin="default" target0="Kongor_Spawner" target1="" target2="" team="0" type="Entity_BossController"></entity>

As you can see, there is some attributes that are not shown in the map editor, like: respawninterval, firstlevel an firstspawntime. Try changing those values to your liking. I think with this you should be alright.

The armor on tower are reduced when hero die only if you play Casual mod, I don't think it has to do with Grimm's map.
If you still want to do it either if it's Casual mode or not, I think you can do it like this:
Extract game_settings.cfg file from the resources0.s2z file.
Open it up with notepad, and change Set "g_towerHeroArmorReduction" "false" to true
In your map file, create a "resources" folder.
Copy the game_settings.cfg file you edited inside the resources folder of your map.

I didn't try it myself, but I'm pretty sure it would work. Also, I'll tell you since you might not know, but every time you save your map, it will delete the resources folder of your map, so make a backup of it before opening your map in the editor.

As for the creep stacking, I believe you mean neutrals stacking? It's kind of strange. I don't know much about this since I actually never made a map with neutrals before.

Oke, Thnx alot i will try this out.

I think they fixed this on the patch:
- Fixed the editor deleting the /resources/ folder inside of a map archive when you save

so i dont have to worry about this anymore?

I would still backup your resources until you can confirm that it works as intended
