Spring RTS Engine

ive been trying to understand why for while now, but constantly it wont download any of the maps :/

Way too little info.

Try https://springrts.com/wiki/Read_Me_First

If you are using spring lobby, be sure to use the last version (0.225) as it was a known issue in some previous versions.

http://springfiles.com is down, that's why springlobby fails to download anything right now.

The easier workaround I found was to download all the map at once there : http://blackholehost.net/list/resources

Fixed most of my issues joinging maps as BA player. You could also ask a mate to share his copy using stuffs like https://reep.io

springlobby 0.226 was released, this should fix all know bugs wrt downloading. please give it a try!
