good map. but i didn't need to kill any creeper, was this intentional?
7/10 cos it was a nice design might replay and see how long it takes to kill the creeper and collect all the stuff.
make moer maps!

Yes the idea was to get out before the creeper gets to You, I was wanting the player to need to fend off the creeper while they finished digging but in the editor You are unable to see the creeper grow so I decided to post it as an easy version I will update it to make it the way its intended now that I know how the creeper reacts.

just a note about the editor. you can set both fields and creeper running in the editor.
down the bottom there are two set of buttons "creeper simulator" and "field simulator".
the save and load are for the creeper only and the reset is for fields only. if you run the field sim you need to reset before you can edit any fields.
there are some great guides to fields etc on the custom map discussion forum
have fun editing.

Except Emitters unless I missed something

Or terain decay and dig packets

well i just put in some creeper under the emitter position or in the field to test the fields and remove it afterwards, but testing larger maps can be tricky to get timings right.
especially if you are adding in other complications like decayable terrain or dig packets.
looking forward to trying your next map
