Note: Don`t complete map faster than 13:15. In an alternate Reality, meet Commander Abraxis, who is more a doer than a thinker since an incident involving Lia talking, loud music, Beautiful Girls and a chicken ( don´t ask. ). Follow this daring and handsome Commander in his trails as he sets on his epic journey of Galactic conquest. Meet his newest best buddy, a military AI picked up on a distant star system and of course, loveable Lia. This crew has it all! #AC #Story #CRPL #Vanguard #AbraxisRambo

Fixed Version of Map Number 420.

Terribly sorry, I didn´t catch the spore bug the first time. :/

I am really sorry, you obviously did a lot of work on both the map and the dialog. Unfortunately, we have a terribly low bar for map content. Essentially, the guideline is that if a 10-yo kid plays the game and his/her Mom stands there and looks over their shoulders, she should *never* feel uncomfortable seeing what's on the screen. Scatological references fail that bar. I'm going to have to ask you to fix the dialog, if you want the map up here, please.

Also, it's "brownie", not "browny", unless you were playing a word game. :)

I'll leave this thread open for the time being.

"...in his trails"?

Trails or Trials? I suppose it could be either, but is probably meant to be 'trials' (as in trials and tribulations).

No need to be sorry, I fully understand. Thanks for your tremendous patience with me, everybody. :)

Map is uploaded with fixed dialogue. I will keep to just scripting stuff instead of boring everyone to death with my Pseudoprose.  ;D

Edit: @ Helper: It was sort of meant as "Follow his footsteps", so it was referring to trails as in animal paths. Should´ve let her proofread this bit too, I suppose.  :-X

Thank you for fixing it - downloading and playing now.

Couple of thoughts - "Pseudoprose" is a fantastic addition to most maps. We have some great technicians making fun games to play, but damn (darn?) few who take the time to tell a story as they do.

Just caught the Edit line - thanks for the explanation and 'Happy Trails to You' (Gene Autry, I believe).
