How to make a shared base with custom settings?

[Guest]

Does anyone know what to do to get a map to be use map settings but be shared base? I am also having trouble getting the mission objectives intro page to work right. It only shows up for like 2 seconds and then skips straight to the game. Please somebody reply soon!

I don't really know what you mean by shared base.

As for the briefing, you need to add a "Wait" trigger to stop it and slow it down, 1000ms = 1 second.

btw, aren't the briefing waits counted in seconds?

As for shared bases, simply place the players' start locations (and any starting units) near each other in a resource area on the map. If you also want the players to be allied to start with (the norm in SB maps), go to the scenario menu, select force settings. Move the players you want allied with each other into the same force slot (ie: for P1 and P2 to be allied, move them both into Force 1, and move those that you don't want being part of that alliance into different slots) and make sure that the allied, allied victory, and shared vision checkboxes are checked.

The briefing uses milliseconds.
