I was really confused before posting this topic because Helper said me I can test my future maps here:
http://knucklecracker.com/forums/index.php?topic=18857.0
And Karsten says that i shouldn't do it.

Anyway Helper is MapMod so i decided to do it.
Here is the map that was previously uploaded by me on CS, and after player's feedback i decided to upgrade it. Here are the changes:
-Added some totems
-Removed 2 ore deposits from the north
-Added 1 ore deposit on starting location
-Catapults don't attack AC anymore
-Catapults still work after loading game.
I hope you will have fun! Tell me if I should upload it.
You are not supposed to upload UNFINISHED maps to COLONIAL SPACE. However, you can upload MOSTLY FINISHED, BUT STILL IN NEED OF TESTING maps to the FORUMS.
What Asbestos said. I believe Karsten's post was brought on because Colonial Space didn't exist when the game was first released, so all maps had to be shared via the forums before then. Once Colonial Space was released, it took some effort to get people to use it.
Short version:
Finished maps -- colonial space
Works-in-progress you want feedback on -- forums

If you make a map you wish to share with others, please use the built-in feature of the game to upload the map to Colonial Space. If your map is a work-in-progress, then feel free to post it here for comments.
Thank you.
If you want, I have just finished writing code that allows a core to be disabled on right click.
<-active if
...
endif
GetMouseCell ->mY ->mX
1 GetMouseButtonUp
CurrentX <-mX sub abs 1 lte and #this one
CurrentY <-mY sub abs 1 lte and #and this one
if
<-active not ->active
<-active if
self RemoveImages
self CONST_REQUESTPACKETS TRUE SetUnitAttribute
else
self "no" "Custom35_128" SetImage
self "no" 255 0 0 255 SetImageColor
self CONST_REQUESTPACKETS FALSE SetUnitAttribute
endif
endif
:awake
Once
TRUE ->active
Endonce
Change the 1 to a 2 for a 5x5 structure.
Thank you for the code! I am begginer in CRPL so I tried to learn somethink from this, but i can't understand this part:
if
<-active not ->active
<-active if
oh, and also:
<-active if
...
endif
It seems that your code doesn't work for me. It only adds an image to the unit, but it still recives packets. I delated this part of code because it caused a syntax error.
<-active if
...
endif
But when I added self CONST_CONNECTABLE FALSE SetUnitAttribute it worked fine. I don't know why it happens.
Edit: I'm just idiot. I need to change it to CONST_REQUESTACPACKETS. Nvm.
the ... is just a placeholder. See ellipsis. <boolean> if ... endif is a guard expression. The stuff inside only happens if the boolean is true. (for example if you want to freeze an animation when inactive)
<-active not ->active means: if active is true then active is false, if active is false, then active is true.
