My non-map-maker two cents on the dark tower issue is that it's effect probably just straight disallows players from "building" within it's range, as well as the whole disconnect and no-drop-zone effects and I think you can't even move in non-beacon units
when I played Custom Map #1237: A casual map. By: Jenicke123 I notice AI can move units in dark tower range, kinda curious how things work.

The bug in this map is super fun! The map without the bug is also fun, but this bug in particular is a blast!

I loved it! can you fix this one bug though? I think it would be cool too boost the air sack but it doesn't work :( hopefully this is fixed :)

See the other comments about the Air Sac Factory.  Boosting the Air Sac reduces the time to the next launch.  Once it gets down to one Air Sac per minute, it will eventually add another one (i.e. 2 per minute - after that, it stops boosting).

4RPL can do things that the player cannot.  For instance, you can stack units with 4RPL.  That's not possible with the player's user interface.  4RPL can also create units wherever it wants to and ignore most of the game rules.

Yup!  The unit bugs are definitely a lot fun.  Well, until the unit limit bug gets fixed in the base game.  The Rocks unit bug has to be fixed in 4RPL.

If you wanted to release another map now, there is a way you could fix the other bugs too, or at least make them not worth exploiting.  (Basically remove the bit of code you have that caps the unit limit at 0, so if people spam 50 eggs, they're at -50, and can't build another for a long time. Or have the check to make the egg real check the unit limit and do nothing if it's less than 0.)

theres a really exploitable bug with this map which is extremely easy to do
all you need to know is you can click and drag to place multiple of things, thats it... have fun using eggs
you dont need any of the boosts or the rocks to win, you can win in like 2 minutes

It's so fun to cheese the hell out of the drag glitch with boosts : D

WAY too easy. Surround the shielded area with eggs, putting 2 eggs per energy tower/pylon, then draw a line of eggs back to the emitter on the right side, when the first goes off it will create a chain because each egg is now in range of some creeper from the previous egg in the chain, and now the power lines coming from the base are completely severed. Then just boost the hell out of the emitter and sit back while it takes over because everything is out of ammo now.

Very good map, very fun. Played the heck out of it, numerous times. Would like to see more like it.
