Hey guys, I know Broot probably hates when I do this, but there's a new map online called Kobold Tribes Temp Fix
It's the exact same map as Kobold Tribes New v1.117 (aka 1.45d) except the UI is switched back to the old one.
I only uploaded this because the game is losing popularity, lobbies are hard to fill, and almost every new player I get to join complains about the UI being too confusing and hard to see. I think it's stopping a lot of new players form getting into one of the best and most original maps on sc2 arcade.
On another note, I also plan on fixing the quests stopping after a while, unless Broot fixes it first. I'm still working on it. I ran a few games last night, just turned on god mode and watched. I only ran three, not a huge sample size, but in all three, quests stopped popping after the fishing quest. After the fishing quest ran to completion, no more quest popped. I have to read through obscure galaxy script to find the error, since I don't have the triggers or anything. If anyone sees quests continue to pop after the fishing quest, or has any other theories, please let me know. Thanks.
***CORRECTION*** After more tests I've realized it is not related to the fishing quest, must've been coincidence.

Quests are now working properly and triggering throughout the entire game! Seitan, maybe u will continue Broot's work on this new map? Honestly I would really love to Grisha, that's actually how Kobold Tribes New started. Around a year ago an SC2 patch broke a lot of arcade games. Qancakes was nowhere in sight to fix the original so I fixed a few problems like missing textures, unable to pickup items on low terrain etc etc. Somehow Broot and I started talking and decided to team up. But right away it was clear Broot's skill and knowledge with the galaxy editor FAR surpassed mine, and I would really only get in the way, so he continued solo. The main thing getting in the way of me continuing working on the map is I don't have a real copy of it. I have a more-or-less bootleg copy I've made from piecing together what parts of the map are downloaded to your computer when you play the game the first time. Along with some other parts I've had to make myself or a few I had from back when I would help Qancakes test his patches. The main thing that stops me from making real or complex changes to the map is I don't have the triggers, the heart of the map. I only have the raw galaxy script that starcraft 2 compiles triggers into when you actually play the game in sc2. Making changes to a single script file thousands of lines long is tedious, and making one change somewhere will undoubtedly cause dozens of errors elsewhere in the script, so even minor changes usually take me hours of work. I offered to purchase all the assets of Kobold Tribes over a year ago from Qancakes, but never got a response. Recently I made the same offer to Broot, if he truly has decided he is done with it. Like I said, he is extremely skilled with the editor, all aspects of it it seems, so if he is going to continue with the map I'd sooner just play his game than my own. But if he is finished I will gladly continue supporting it, and even improving it if he agrees to sell me his work, mostly the triggers and all that. I haven't heard back from him though, we'll see what he says.

It is the long and terrible night quest. When he disabled it, it was done improperly, and never triggers that it is complete. The code breaks need to be moved like before, so the the event says it triggers and the clock runs down you get the announcement etc, just no incoming stuff.

That's exactly what it was. It took me a while to find. Since I only write in galaxy script, never triggers,I know this games map script like the back of my hand. I see it in my sleep and even wake up with realizations of things that could work better another way, or solutions to bugs after a long weekend of working on it haha. It's a big file though. Boring read I'm afraid.
