Custom Race Option

In the old editor custom races were tied to the map data. I think it would be a cool idea if we could upload the unit data on its own. We could have custom races like we have custom maps. The way it works currently if I want to play a custom race on a normal MP map you have to import the race unit data to the map and upload it as a custom map. I dunno just an idea I had. Would be cool to play High Elves vs Orcs or Naga vs Night Elves without it being tied to map data.

Wholeheartedly agree with this! Full support for custom races/factions would be great! Having it tied to Map Data is just so restrictive.

One of my biggest gripes with the original. Hope this gets unlocked too - together with import export of map constants.

I wonder if it woule ge feasible from a purely technical perspective. Would it also require a GUI adjustment at least, in order to make it slightly more dynamic?

Well you already can - if you can tolerate some model inconsistency.
