Hi!
I'm working on a port of the Diplomacy game from Starcraft, I have two questions.

1. How to make the boundary bigger
2. How to make a counter, mine fires every half second even though it is set to ever 120 seconds.

Thanks!

I think 62x62 is the maximum mapsize for now, but you can shrink the boundary sizes by selecting 'level' under the settings menu.

As for the counters, I don't think they were ever actually implemented and so the modify counter trigger doesn't really have a use. You can use the 'Modify Persistant Variable' and 'Test Persistant Variable' functions however for a similar effect.
