There's no need to alter anything in the bw code if you can fix it with proper mapping. With proper mapping I mean, using the more advanced tools to make sure that the underlying mechanics of the map are smoothed out, and not just draw a map in the default map maker and be done with it. Well, vortices are bugs caused by the game engine's handling of region nodes and terrain collision that manifest in specific spots in maps. That does not mean that map makers did anything wrong when it occurs. Simply adding a few lines of code that move region nodes away from unwalkable ground would actually not be a big deal, although in extreme cases (like Demon's Forest) that solution wouldn't work. The "weird routes" (whatever you perceive as "weird") are a direct result of pathfiding taking place on a hidden grid of pre-calculated regions. Changing this would fundamentally change the game. But it's also something that a map maker cannot do too much about.

I don't know what issues Blade Storm in particular would cause. Maybe it's the many unwalkable doodads in the middle that units bump into. | ||

consider changing the fog of war from full black to grey Has there been any official response from Blizzard on why this hasn't been implemented? This seems like something that would really help new players. | ||

* Windowed mode - add a Always on Top option for the window. These two changes make it easier to obs/rep while doing something in the background (eg. writing comments/tips for a player in the game so he can read it after the game and improve). Edit: For all the others, a temporary workaround is to lock the screen on something (like a building), by right clicking on it. * Add some hotkey combination that rewinds the game like 10s back. (Maybe keep that point in memory so it doesn't have to start from the beginning to load it.) * AltGr+F = [ on Croatian keyboards. Please move the FPS on/off button to some other place or hotkey combination. I can't write [ because of it. | ||

You dont want slow change? You dont want minimap to be changed? What is supposed to be fixed? Why does changing prevent them from fixing something? | ||

His point was that there are other things that they should fix, that should take higher priority before such a fix is implemented. I tend to agree, I want my SD gfx to look like 1.16.1 instead of the jagginess that comes with RM. | ||

Why does changing prevent them from fixing something? Haha, looks like someone *is* having a shitty day. Yep, I don't want change, brother, I think it's a good feature of the game, that it punishes everyone who doesn't know the map by heart. I suppose I'm one of those guys who likes comparing Brood War to playing classical music and I'm pretty sure many others feel the same. And I'm pretty sure many others feel that it'd be a nice change actually, the very reason I felt like voicing my opinion (how terrible of me indeed! Damn us all ignorant fools with differing opinions!). Now, since you asked me, ever so politely, to mention some of the things the developer's obviously limited time should be focused on instead (yes I do as a matter of fact think, that if they are *coding* one feature, they will not be *coding* a bugfix (to give you the very difficult and hard to figure out answer to your "Why does changing prevent them from fixing something?"), and that there is such a thing as priorities: if there is a feature request for something the community is divided on, and there are obvious bugs people all agree should be fixed they should get on fixing those things first. Pardon me for assuming that all TL visiting people know about these much reported bugs. BigFan already mentioned a few things, funny enough, there is a nice LIST on the very first page of this thread, not to mention the countless posts on battle.net as well as TL. In any case, I'll mention a few things myself: make dynamic turnrate less dumb, so that it always gives you 100% game speed (I was playing a game with Cadenzie, TR 12 low made units a bit slower, switching to high made the units a bit slow again, becaus TR went to 14), make it so that people with good connecion to each other can actually play using the matchmaking algorithm, fix the bloody mess that is the stats and profile page, finally merge the foreigner servers at least, so that I don't actually have to be constantly changing between regions to message friends, give me the bottom bar for my minimap on not FS sized maps in SD, so that I can accurately click on the minimap, have a reasonable replay naming algorithm again,fix the stat recording thingie so that it doesn't display the "recorded, will show later message", etc., etc.. Not even mentioning features everyone agrees should be there (team MM, clans, all the things the launchers were able to do, but we still cannot now). Well I hope I have sufficiently explained my obviously too curt previous-post to you, and I hope that I have managed to cheer your day up by showing you the brilliant fact that many diverse people with diverse opinions play this game that you too love so very much! edit1: I was thinking about replying to HaN as to why I think it would be a bad change, but I think it's something that has been discussed to death in many threads. Maybe I'm assuming too much again, and some people really don't know what the against arguments are, but my initial comment's purpose wasn't to start a discussion either, it was just to show that I personally am in the the other camp, if there are some devs reading this thread. | ||

Lately I noticed that my in-game sounds were too low, even on maximum. I have everything on maximum on my windows sound mixed as well. ![[image loading]](https://i.imgur.com/c01zA0m.png) So I checked Loudness Equalization option on windows, it has definitely raised the sound on my PC. But in the game only some menu beeps seems to have been affected, sounds like when I'm selecting an overlord are still very low. To compare I have in-game sound on max and youtube music at 1%. | ||

The match making one I don't know enough about though. It sounds good, but if it affects top level foreign players from getting good games that would be a bummer. | ||

I'd like the ability to start replays faster. What about when you press "ok" to start a replay, another button appears: "Engage hyperdrive". With a cool sound effect plus it starts the replay instantly. For this I'd gladly pay 5 USD  | ||
