Oh "sliding" is what it's called now. Yer I'm not sure if this works on other maps as well, or using workers or using bigger/small units. I tried it just for Outsider using only the Vult + SCV since you see it happen in progames more now. If I can put together something more comprehensive and complete I'll put it in Liquipedia.

would this somehow be viable on Neo Medusa where the temples are? except, instead of clicking the patch click on the temple then spam?

anyway thanks for the tip. i've been trying to learn outsider lately too

I've never gotten the glitch to work when I wanted it just seemed random to me. Clicking on the mineral as well I didn't now and know that I do I get it to work very consistently. always 1st or 2nd try

Thanks a bunch!

there are some situations where one right click past then hold pos then spam right click works better, thats the best way to get a vulture over the back mineral on desti.

wow this works 100% of the time. and it works on any map that has a mineral patch "opening", including medusa and its temples.

If there is a enemy unit behind the minerals and you need to glitch thru (pretty much with anything), make sure you have your unit hold position before you glitch it over so it doesnt try and pursue and then get screwed with the pathing. This can come up frequently on outsider cause of all the events when you have to glitch thru under pressure to protect an expo or something of that sort.

I also spent almost an hour trying to perfect mineral hopping on destination, and what Ilikestarcraft said is the best I've come up with.
My success percentage was nowhere near 100% tho.. more like 40%.

I only have a problem with minerals that are facing downward. going up and to the sides I get it nearly 100% but for some reason when the minerals are below the dt it gets pushed up and away, and i only get it about 25%. anyone know how to get away from this.

Me n my bro are doing this now and it's nowhere near working. We're having succes with single click minerals - spam past for vults but DTs are very reluctant to hop these bastards.
