Um, we should be able to add this to the template, hopefully soon. PM me if it doesn't get added in the next 2 weeks or so (added onto every unit - intothewow already said he would add it tonight...)

Sure thing.

For cliffs, open up SCMDraft2 and go into unit mode. Select any Building and a gray layer will show all unbuildable tiles, those are always 32x32 of course. Select any ground unit and it will show the unwalkable minitiles. Every tile is made up of 16 minitiles (8x8pixels), and each of those can be unwalkable individually.

In the old tilesets, unwalkability goes nicely along with the design, in the broodwar tilesets blizzard was quite sloppy and made really weird shapes...
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

I did not know that! Thank you for pointing that out! It's still hard but it's 50x easier if the map editor shows you the good stuff already. Plus it's only blocks of 8x8, I thought those were curves down to the 1x1 when I tried to "feel" it...

I'll see if I can make any sense out of these..

I would say, you are the Patience Master Astounding work.
It explains core+nexus wall (vide blue storm), as this combo is zergling-proof horizontally.

I checked a few of your numbers in DatEdit and they generally match up. Marine, SCV, Command Center, and Sunken Colony are all the same, but the Supply Depot had different numbers. DatEdit says it should be 10 on left, 9 on right, 10 on top (here it differs), and 5 on bottom.

I made a quick map with a supply, creep, supply built vertically and tested it with a zergling; the ling could not pass above the creep and under a supply (to be expected, for a 13 pixel gap and a 16 pixel ling) but could pass under the creep and above a supply (18 pixel gap using DatEdit's numbers, but only a 14 pixel gap using your numbers). I will go through and check the other numbers in a little bit if no one beats me to it.

If the dat file says that, it's most certainly correct! x-tra editor sucks. My entire data is compromised. I might as well just do it right this time and use that to verify everything (something I should have done from the start)

Oh yeah, and thank you.

Ok, I checked the others. Here are the ones DatEdit disagrees on:
Broodling, 19x19
Carrier, 64x64
Spawning Pool, 7 on right, 13 on bottom
Pylon, 20 on top, 16 on left
Assimilator, 4x2 (not really a DatEdit disagreement, just a typo)
Arbiter Tribunal, 4 on left, 3 on right
Robotics Support Bay, 16 on left, 15 on right (I think you just reversed these)
Supply Depot, 10 on top (I already mentioned this one)
Science Facility, 10 on top

Since DatEdit gives unit dimensions as left/right/up/down offsets from a center pixel which is oriented to the lower right of the center of a grid, I had to jump a lot of little mental math hoops to check the numbers. I tried to be careful, but I could always have messed up somewhere. Hope this helps.

Rofl I know, I'm still stuck trying to figure out the Command Center dimensions, and that one is right
I kinda figured there had to be an extra pixel for the center, but I thought it was aligned to the upper left? Oh never mind, I got it backwards. It's bottom right alright because less pixels to the upper left makes it have a wider gap (by 1 pixel...)
I'm gonna update the stuff with your numbers, and try to double check them myself.

edit: left<->right. Got it.

Thanks Yurebis !, I was curious exactly how different building placements worked and the exact size of the units.

Ok, using DatEdit now.
I manually (noooo) put down all the pertinent building dimensions in a list and parsed it using my leet python skillz (lol). The result is this list which may be exact save typing errors as I typed the database in:

These pics are awesome. Explains how the walls are different on bloodbath for me somewhat.

Is it possible to find the collision sizes of an assimilator on the top left edge of the map as well as netutral assimilators?

edit, where are the rest of the buildings for T and P? nvm

Btw the units have like "23x27" for example. Do they not have different numbers on every side like the buildings do ? *confused*

Units work just like buildings for their dimensions, but it doesn't really matter since units aren't locked to the grid.

Also, what are the measurements for the "stairs" doodad? I've always wanted to see them used in a map but no mapmaker has ever been brave enough to use them, the only thing close was the narrow ramps (in peaks of baekdu, i think)

Those stairs really fuck up any unit's AI. Plus one direction is tighter than the other one.
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

The collision sizes are the same no matter what player owns it, or where it is.
But remember that these are the gaps only when the building has been built locked to the grid, I reckon some maps put neutrals in some places where it's not aligned to the grid, so the gaps may be shifted (i.e wider gap to the bottom/left, narrower to the top/right)

Which stairs on what terrain? I could take a screenshot for you but you could also see it for yourself with the Scmdraft2 editor. There's no exact dimensions, the unwalkable and unbuildable areas are like a bad mspaint drawing (using an 8x8 brush)
Power corrupts. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.
