I wanna make a map called Evolution Wars or something. ITs gonna be like this. You start out with a race chooseer building. THen you upgrade to either Primitive or Advanced. Then Primitive goes to Romans and Indians (for example) and Advanced goes to Space Age and Moon Base (for example) and then indians goes to aztec and whatever. Who wants to help?
 
I'll help you, but I might not always be there or my work will be slow. Also, I'm not a really experienced map maker. I just released my first map's fourth alpha version. I can do most variables, basic triggers, and a fair amount of object editting. I'm not so good with terrain though.

Another thing, what will be the objective of your map? Is everyone just killing each other or is something else involved? Also, what will the Space Age people "evolve" into?
 
Thanks

Ok you can help with the triggers and units. I will do the terrain if you want. The map is basically killing your opponents with custom triggers, terrain, heroes, and units. I don't really think you understand how my map is going to be so I will explain it again. Everybody starts out with a building called Race Selector. It upgrades to either Primitive or Advanced. If you upgraded to Primitive you choose either Indians or Romans. If you chose Advanced you get to choose either Space Age or Moon Base, Then after you chose one of the four, you get your starting base and you build stuff. The upgrades from Race Selector to Primtive and Advanced is going to be fast. It is just to choose. I havent really decided yet but if you want we can make a dialog appear and choose the race from there. We can decide together later. Do you have AIM?

so its kinda like golems from starcraft?
 
lol what hes saying is "Its exactly like genesis of empires"
 
So you just pick your race and start fighting? At least, that's how I understand it. Anyways I do have AIM, my username is flame1203, but I might not be on all that much. I'd be happy to do the triggers and units too, as best as I can anyway.
 
Golems is a footmen-wars-like game where units spawn and you get money from killing your opponents' units. With the money, you can get different types of units to spawn. At least, that's what I remember, it's been a long time since I've played it.

Genesis of Empires is a game where you start out with a few builders and a general. Genesis of Empires focuses a lot on economy as well as military. You build an empire and attack everyone else. There is no race selection, everyone is the same race.

    News portal has been retired. Main page of site goes to Headline News forum now
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I am working on getting access to the old news portal under a different URL for those that would rather use that for news before we get a different news view.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Easily done

    https://www.thehelper.net/pages/news/ is a link to the old news portal - i will integrate it into the interface somewhere when i figure it out
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Need to try something
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hopefully this won't cause problems.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hmm
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I have converted the Headline News forum to an Article type forum. It will now show the top 20 threads with more detail of each thread.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    See how we like that.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do not see a way to go past the 1st page of posts on the forum though
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is OK though for the main page to open up on the forum in the view it was before. As long as the portal has its own URL so it can be viewed that way I do want to try it as a regular forum view for a while
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Yeah I'm not sure what the deal is with the pagination.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    It SHOULD be there so I think it might just be an artifact of having an older style.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I switched it to a "Standard" article forum. This will show the thread list like normal, but the threads themselves will have the first post set up above the rest of the "comments"
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I don't really get that article forum but I think it is because I have never really seen it used on a multi post thread
  • Ghan Ghan:
    RpNation makes more use of it right now as an example: https://www.rpnation.com/news/
