Still not something we can really afford to invest time in at the moment, unfortunately

Even if it would not be classic Brood War anymore, but would it be possible that Ghosts can autocast lockdown and that you can hotkey more than 12 units in one group, or even hotkey more than one building in a group? For example, toggling between classic mode (Brood War unchanged) and convenient mode would be funny

Perhaps it is more interesting and easier to hit than linux.

Does ShieldBattery work on Linux or OS X?
This is not currently something we're focusing on, but we do have plans to ensure that ShieldBattery is usable via Wine.

https://shieldbattery.net/faq#Does-ShieldBattery-work-on-Linux-or-OS-X

To expand on this a bit further. As Tec said, this is not something we can currently invest our time in, but that doesn't mean someone else can't. This is a community project after all .

So, if there are any Linux users out there with enough technical know-how that would like to see this feature, feel free giving it a go. Here are a couple of GitHub issues that might be relevant:

Just wondering, what's the difference between Shield Battery and normal Blizzard servers?

Shield Battery is run by people who care about bw. The maps are up to date and hacks are fixed.

*snip*

Well no, I don’t think this was ever claimed.

I believe, using a little bit of common sense that the common hacks afflicting Blizzard’s ladder are patched out on Shield Battery, not that SB is immune to exploits from a dedicated programmer who thinks the best use of their time is introducing wonkiness into a 20 year old game.

But are they essentially different servers? Or just a launcher that has extra features?

ShieldBattery is its own server with a completely separate/original implementation of the non-gameplay features (chat, matchmaking, etc.), plus some enhancements to the gameplay side of things (transparent starting fog of war, fixes for exploits, etc.)
