Scott how hard would it be to make map makers be able to play multiplayer maps alone? Like click something and we can just check out triggers and the terrain.

Galm we can already do that through M. Just download the mission and check it out on M. You can't really view the actual trigger in-game anyways, just the trigger results.

he means like test the game itself. Kinda like the starcraft 2 map editor. Wen you view the map, theres a "test in-game" button which lets you in the game to test your map yourself

There is a way to do it although it isn't exactly easy.
First make the mission 1 player, so that you can play as a single player.
Then, upload the mission somewhere. In the mission download list in the game, select "Custom URL...". Type in the URL of your mission, press ok, and it'll get downloaded to your device, and you can play it.
Once you're happy with it, change the # of players to what you want, and post it to mission sharing.

wait so if you upload it to a URL it won't appear in the downloads list?

Or you could just ask someone to help you test  but a futuristic feature could be to allow player swiching in multiplayer maps under development by the author to allow for triggers to be tested.
