Thanks! But if I name the Source, let's say name="Bob", then
victory_conditions defeat=Bob, how could it work on a multiplayer map? I
mean, can both teams have a source with the same name?

Hello,
Found the problems here. With the error relating to the lack of a team
source unit, you've got to name your team source unit. Then whatever
you name it is the name you input for the victory/defeat flags.
And relating to the sounds, rename the sound file to teamsource_cursor.

Hi, guys
Well, this is my very first attempt at creating something for TB. The
idea here is of a board game where you have to destroy your opponent's
flag in order to win. The User's Guide explains the theme, story and
concept of the map, so I'll only make a brief statement that it's a
battle arena between teams of different kinds of mages.

The sound design is very poor in my opinion, but it's the best I could
do in my spare time. I used mostly creative commons sounds, but I must
confess that some are trimmed pieces of other maps' sounds, like Age of
Warlords and Starship Battles, with some effects applied. Hope it
doesn't offend any map creators.
So, the map has two bugs I can't fix. Each team starts with a Team
Source that can summon up to 4 mages in combat. The source is the team
flag, and the victory condition is destroying the opponent's team
source. Well, as you can hear when launching the map, the game insists
that there is no such unit as Team Source. Also, Team Source.txt in
units folder has the "sound=teamsource.mp3" and there's a teamsource.mp3
inside the sounds folder, but even so the game won't play the sound.
The game still needs some tuning, I hope these bugs can be fixed so I
can start playtesting it online to smooth things up. There is only one
map because the first idea is to create a board game for online duels,
but if people likes it I may think of new and more complex maps. And
yes, the Arena's Crowd Protection Grid has no purpose except of making a
cheering border on the arena, sorry if that annoys anybody.
PS: I just noticed the User's Guide says TB was created by Allan Reed,
which might be some sort of amalgam between Ian and Allan Thompson, lol
:D I will correct that.
PS2: It just occurred me that I could have sent just the map folder
instead of the whole TB folder. Sorry, it's the hour in Brazil, won't
happen again.
