Spring RTS Engine

A 12x12 map for 1v1 or 2v2. The islands are connected by narrow strips of shallow water, passable by many land units. Forests added and metal decreased in version 2.

This looks good, +1

Indeed.
SA 1v1 go.

Nice looking, but the bumpmap was rendered at 1:8 or 1:2 (<==> 4:8) so that makes it look very unnatural. Looks to be a neat little map tho.

Looks okayish, it just misses some trees and some rocks imo.

As i personally dislike trees, I didn't think of putting them in. But if everyone thinks trees are a good idea, i will put them in for version 2.

Looks pretty good... And in regards to your avatar fc - My anus is bleeding!!

clusters of trees are very irritating imo

I hate trees. I avoid maps like Cooper and Small Divide due to their trees (and in the second case, rocks).

I think they could probably be done well if put in strategically placed 'thickets', so you can hide behind them, factor them into your turret placement, etc (as you might a building).

But randomly scattering them as a smattering over the map is just ANNOYING in the supreme.

Failing either of those, placing them out of the way just for pretties/reclaim is fine too.

wtf... There aint any trees in this map ?

First case. Cooper has rocks, not Small Divide. The issues with trees are simple - people place them randomly or they place them poorly. Same as any other feature.
