I really appreciate the feedback on this, including the negative feedback (even if it was a bit harsh). This was the first map I've uploaded, and the first "real" map with the breeder script, so it was mainly intended as a test for the concept, and for me to get a feel for the balance (which evidently could use a bit of work). I'll definitely take the balance suggestions here into consideration for the next one. If anyone has any more suggestions or ideas, I'm all ears. Just keep it constructive please :)

Also, before anyone points it out, bombers causing growth to increase by 0.5 was a typo. I meant it to be 0.05, although now I'm realizing that may still be far too much.

And yes, cannons will increase growth rate next time.

cheers dude and most magnamimous of you  8)

perhaps you could tie the creeper increase to the number of each unit as well as weighting it so many of one type of unit cause increase creeper?

Maybe I misunderstood you here, but this is already done in the current version of the map. The breeding rate is increased based on the number of each type of weapon on the map multiplied by that weapon's "weight".

yeah i was super unclear... what i was trying to say was tie the increase the to the combination of units and the total number of each, but in a negative way (this is also super unclear) but essentially to make it a REALLY bad idea to do a single massive swarm of one unit type.

sorry was tired when i posted that and didn't read it before i went to bed for the evening!  8)
