hey,

i just played this game on iccup and i want you guys to tell me if the guy i played is "clean" or not... i don'T want you to judge my play here (i'm d or even d- level). but just by looking at the numbers in bwchart - 130 probes built, 63 zealots and 39 goons and a total of 334 supply in a 9 minute game - it seems a bit suspicious to me.

i'm practice73

thanks in advance

Sometimes it says wierd stuff like "50 carriers built"

I think it counts even the "null" actions so every time he even tries to build a goon or probe even if he dosent have the money for it, bwchart registers it as a "built unit".

If you spam P 5 times before it makes a probe then it says you made 5 probes.

No, I'm pretty sure MiniRoman is right. If you try to build probes when you don't have enough minerals, it actually registers that action

I AM MOST DEFINITELY CORRECT. Most people just dont spam like that cause its a waste of time, but I do. Also canceling wont reduce your unit count in BWChart.

You might not notice because BWChart doesn't include actions from the first 2 minutes anyway.

It does count them, but there is a limit to how many times in a row they will count it. that is, if you spam "probe" 100 times in a row (money or not) it will only count the first 5 (3?) or so and the rest are not counted.

I think.

Also spamming atleast for scv:s and most likely all units when you dont have the money for them makes the "mineral" graph weird/bugged.

A replay only holds the actions perfomed by the players. Without running a "real time simulation" of those actions (like playing the replay), there's no way to tell whether an action is valid or not. In reality, depends on how much a persion spam, there might be tonnes of invalid actions.

BWchart calculates resources count, food supply, unit/building count depending on the actions without checking validity (as it is impossible to), that's why you get weird numbers. That's why don't rely on it to give accurate information in those areas.
