Great Program This Is

If this program is to have any huge success we really need to have a maps upload and download system along with an active user forum that is all to easy to log on and use!!! We all understand that security is always a problem and hope there is a way to rectify this. I sure look forward to seeing new maps. ;-)

I have created the "Sector Series" and they now can be downloaded. You can find them in a Google search (Globulation maps). I want to thank Leo for his help on this. I must warn though that they are huge and all could use some improvement but the are playable. I started off using Alnumbi, Nicowar is better after some advice. These are the "Sector" Series of seven maps. The biggest difficulty is getting your blobs strong in a defensive way before undertaking any offensive campaign. I do hope other users will better them up a bit. It's great to see talent outdo your self (Healthy Compatition).

More on "Super Fort" (Edited)

Tried to make a new map last night called "Super Fort" After creating the map, using a bit of advanced knowledge of setting up the players, I then commenced to try out the game. This was another 512 X 512 map, (got to get off the big maps) where I set it up with the Max amount of enemies to make it fair as possible.
Starting the game I set all the players to Nicowar (They seem to develop better). I got wiped out quickly due to conversion. I played again with Warush and Nicowar and still got wiped out due to conversion and the apparent lack of priorty management (food and health) on the part of my Globs. Alnumbi seemed to work the best as far as they go. I ran the map on a Vista machine with two gig memory, a one gig booster and a 256 meg video card. This started very slow the first time I ran it (Each enemy started with 24 globs (12 workers and four each of the others with a full wheat store in each of the swarms)). The second time it appeared to speed up a bit. This is a real time waster, but I love it. The Alnumbi game seemed to go well until it crashed. I hope to get this running on my XP Pro machine in the future and see if things perform better on that. Another interesting thing in "Super Fort" that I attempted to give my Blobs the best of conditions where as all the others have to work hard to build their strength, my globs seemed to get discourged and die out in give time.
