Command + Shift command in Fog of war overrides the previous command (I.e. if I place down a command center in a discovered expansion but it's in the fog of war and quickly shift click SCV onto minerals it won't build the command center).

ever since the 1.18 update, when exiting out of broodwar, all my monitors screens are black. It's like stuck. It seems like it's trying to revert back to the original resolution. The 1.18 before the update worked perfectly. I'm using windows 10, I'm using a crt monitor 640x480. I have two regular led monitors next to the crt monitor on both sides. Im' using refreshlock. It might be the cause of that...unsure.

I can't create a game in battlenet. its stuck on "Creating a game...", I've reentered broodwar, still the same. Does it at all the servers. My main server is US server though. I tried creating python 1.3, fighting spirit, ...and others, still stuck on "Creating a game..."

Here's a few bugs/optimizations that'd be nice if blizzard fixed:
- It's possible to get a drone permanently stuck next to an extractor by making extractor and issuing another command before the extractor starts. It's a very narrow window but, I think many have seen this happen least once.
- It's possible to burn money by telling a larva to make something such as a drone then immediately after issuing stop command (very easy to reproduce in laggy game). This leads to no drone and -50 minerals. Most people that use the larva stop trick to move larva have had this happen to them at least once in the start of the game. Similarly if you cast a recall then immediately move your arbiter you can burn 150 energy (this one is not hard to test at all). Many games have been unfairly (?) lost due to this.
- Un-set (vs scale / fit to size) the mini-map sizes for 96/96 and 192/192.192 maps aren't even viable for melee because of this. I don't see a problem with non-square maps here but these two square maps, there's no excuse.
- Upgrade the blizz map editor to include up-ramps and other modern map features.

So, I'm having problems trying to create games with maps I've downloaded.

I've tried putting these new maps where the "Maps" folder was, or even pasted them in the BroodWar subsection of the folder, and I still haven't been able to find the maps when trying to create a new game for them.

Does anyone know the solution, if there is any, for this? I read in the Battle.Net forums something about placing the folders for the maps in the "Documents" section now for PTR, but I haven't had any luck.

I suggest a refresh button on the games available list.

The (relative) mouse speed in a smaller Window and fullscreen is still quite different, isn't it? I think this should be consistent

Also:
- Text rendering in the main menus is still very bad when the resolution is 640x480
- Text rendering ingame is still bad when bilinear filtering is turned off
- menu text and ressource symbols ingame are still wrong by 1 pixel

- When you create a game it should save the name for the next time you create a game so that you don't have to type it again.

- Remove observers slots by default, nobody want observers cause it equals lag, put it as an option.

- Starting game countdown needs improvement.

- Displaying stats in chat. Change format from "wins: 2, losses: 2, disconnects: 0" to "2-2-0"

I don't know if someone already told this:

Just tested and Shift+A command not working. Other Shift+X commands not working too. Only Shift+LMC/RMC works.

- Please let us use the term "test" within game names. Can't even write Fastest, because it contains "Test" (I've read on the Bnet forums that you can't create games with test as game name, but should allow something like Fastest)

Noticed this too, the first shift + command works but it doesn't allow you to issue any more afterwards

They made hotkeys case sensitive now. Noticed it when pressed caps lock accidentally.
