The Planetary Workshop

Hey guys.

Posted this a few days ago under code name `Gas Mines´

Got some feedback from dezi saying that I should remove some holes n stuff.

Now I´m ready for beta release with this uber gimmicky map
I finally figured out how to use Terrain Objects and enabling stuff from the campain without breaking melee functionality (I hope).

A feature I love is the security gates, which funtion as destructible rocks except that they are nice and slim. They have 500 hp and some armor but they´re taken down pretty easy.
I put them one the bridges next to the Watch Towers.
Another gimmick is the 2 gas only pods behind 3rd/4th base. They feature super high yield geysers but they can only be long distance mined. I put them in to fit the theme.
The pods also provide an additional path outside watchtower range once you take down the gates.
I´ll put up a huge thread on TL once I´m done.

It´s up on EU, just search ´green harvest´

any feedback is much appreciated, but please, see the map in-game first, thanks.

woah, this looks sick! I love the base layout and overall design. However I think the center needs to be re-worked. The doodads in the middle look too large. I feel the paths around the middle may be too chokey and too close to the ramp, making it extremely deadly.

Dunno if players are ready for features like long distance HYgas. Map itself looks pretty solid. Needs to be play tested

Fortunatly that thing in the middle is not doodads. It´s a Terrain Object, meaning it´s glass floor with awesome doodads underneath. It´s fully pathable *D

You guys should try it out. When you go to File-> Dependencies and add Campaign (not Campaign/story cause that´ll break melee - like adding Firebats & Scourges n stuff)
you suddenly have a ton of new doodads plus the awesome Terrain Objects.

Hey guys.

I have been fixing minor bugs and adding more doodads to the edges of the map, but most importantly I have done some play testing. Here are 2 replays, ZvP and ZvT.

I have re-published the map as TPW Green Harvest

i have some questions

is it intended that there are rich geyseyrs everywhere?
and did u fix the creeptumor and archon bug? because u use campaign dependence

and we need the information for voidrift for the website....look in the general forum

I fixed Green Harvest, yes.

I have some trouble navigating this forum, and finding out where to post what, but I´ll try to get better at it. PM me through TL.net if something is urgently needed.
