The map editor is now complete! We just finished testing the Player AI editor and even we were amazed with how dynamic and easy it is to create simple to complex AI.

Within the next couple of weeks we'll be releasing the map editor beta. 

Here is a list of map editor features:
  • Place Objects(Structures, Ground Units, Air Units)

  • Specify Territory (Occupied and Unoccupied area for ground units to navigate around)
  • Resources (Specify starting resources and resource quota for each player)
  • Camera (Fog and Orthographic mode to create 2d rts games)
  • Teams
  • Player Factions
  • Player Colors
  • Player AI
  • Loading Screen
  • Start Menu (Such as an objectives briefing screen)
  • End Menu (Such as a scoring screen)
