I encountered a bug where I selected 12 hydras and morphed lurkers, but I only lost money without getting any to morph.

To see this occurring, go to 11:30 and look at the high ground in front of my base. My minerals / gas go down but no lurker eggs are created. I didn't make any other gas units during this time as you can check (no mutas, etc.).

This happened a couple more times this game. I maybe lost 1000 gas this way.

The replay apparently faithfully replays the bug.

Here's the link to the replay: https://repmastered.app/game/2GlhCgkr71QAjH2HVJldU9vSYuvtYaZtCunElHzWTx0

Why does this happen and can this be avoided somehow?

Yeah you made some at 11:36 and 11:45 but looking at the rep nothing has morphed.

There is proof that the commands have been issued. No idea what's going on

Was the game lagging? Weird things can happen in laggy conditions?

Most likely the newest patch fucked something up...

You know if there are any rules in place to deal with this? Losing like 1000 gas and not get any lurkers can probably lead to losses that shouldnt be etc

Yeah I feel like remastered has more bugs than any other platform for BW. One of these new maps for instance (eclipse) won't allow a reaver to fire off the ramp. It's a really annoying bug.

Meanwhile, I played the infinite nukes hacker the other day on ladder and apparently blizz is just going to sit on their hands about it.

no its a old bug from 1.16. and its easy to reproc

select a group of hydras, spam right click on 1 of the hydras as you press L. it will consume the money for all the hydras in the group but only the hydra that you are spamming rightclick on will morph. works both offline and online

this also affects mutas morphing into guardian/dev so careful with them too :D

The game engine wasn't changed for remastered.

Oh yea, I saw that. I think consume gets canceled if defiler goes through nydus. I believe it also gets canceled if the defiler goes into an overlord during animation.

I was able to get it to replicate by hitting hold on burrowed hydras a bunch of times while also spamming lurker morph, cancel, and reburrow a bunch of times. Eventually the break and can never morph again.

Sidenote: I stacked burrowed hydras and then morphed them to create stacked morphing eggs which was kinda neat. Imagine making an unbreakable wall!

Yeah as I was watching the rep I did notice your hydras were moving, (grouped and moving) before attempting to morph so this must be it. Congrats on winning the match anyways :D

yeah you cant consume and then go in nydus/overlord; it cancels it, also the drones going in gas cancels it too
