OpenRA Map Editor Player Limit
OpenRA Map Editor Player Limit
Hello there,
I recently created my first map in the OpenRA Map Editor and i managed to get it into the game but it is still listed as having a 0 player limit and i cannot seem to find a way to change it so could anyone help me along here?
It's my first time trying to create a map so apologies if i'm overlooking something.

Heyho.
Look inside your maps map.yaml. (With WinRar/7ZIP)
I guess these lines are missing:
Now your map is made for 4 Players.
You could add a fifth by adding this:
PlayerReference@Multi4:
Name: Multi4
Playable: True
DefaultStartingUnits: True
Race: Random
Enemies: Creeps
And edit this:
PlayerReference@Creeps:
Name: Creeps
NonCombatant: True
Race: allies
Enemies: Multi0,Multi1,Multi2,Multi3,Multi4
Hope i was able to help you.

Hail to the soviets!
in the openra editor. when you modifiy the things in map properties that just changes how you map is read by openra, when you save your map (file>save as) it will open a dialog box to rename the filename of your map and where it will save the file to. thes will be somthing like youmampname.ormap. open that file using 7zip (google it, its free) and you will see 2 files. one will be a .yaml which is the coding for the rules of the map. this is the file you need to change for your player number to show correctly. you can check anotehr map and copy paste the txt from that. just remember the counting starts at 0. so if you want a 8 player map repeat this all the way to multi7 and adjust the creeps player accordingly " PlayerReference@Multi0:
Name: Multi0
Playable: True
DefaultStartingUnits: True
Race: Random
Enemies: Creeps
PlayerReference@Multi1:
Name: Multi1
Playable: True
DefaultStartingUnits: True
Race: Random
Enemies: Creeps "
Name: Multi0
Playable: True
DefaultStartingUnits: True
Race: Random
Enemies: Creeps
PlayerReference@Multi1:
Name: Multi1
Playable: True
DefaultStartingUnits: True
Race: Random
Enemies: Creeps "
If you're on Win7, look at program files\openra\mods\*\maps. Inside of that folder do you see a 'compatibility files' button on the explorer toolbar? Click it; hope this helps
