Still 1.1 on NA! C'mon guys you said you were going to publish the new ones like a month ago on battle.net. Doesn't it take a few clicks?!

you could always ask for a refund.
oh wait i just remembered yabot is totally free and the deveoper might have a life outside of starcraft 2

If you are certain that NA multiplayer YABOT is still 1.1 (I haven't checked myself), PM xorpwnz and ask him to update the maps. Nicely. ; ) If he is busy or you don't get a response after a few days, let me know and I can probably upload the 1.2 maps from my NA account.

Probably a silly idea, but is it possible to add another mode where the game speed is adjusted beyond "Faster" option? If not, then will it work if you instead adjust all the building and units' production time, walking speed, attacking speed, and such?

Interesting idea! If you could get used to Faster+, then maybe Faster would feel like cake. I think this would be a lot of work though to actually manually speed everything up. Still an interesting idea that is worth looking into.

The problem is that if I publish the single-player map as multiplayer, it gives a blank screen :p The multiplayer version is almost an entirely different map, which is annoying but necessary.

My plan is to finish up version 1.4 that I'm working on now and then integrate all of the new updates into the multiplayer versions of the maps. The reason I also want to wait until 1.4 is that I need to coordinate with several people to make sure they are up on all regions. That being said I am currently getting slammed with other work (including a programming contract with THQ... some cool games coming down the line

). I'm still dedicated to updating multiplayer though and hope to have it finished by the end of the year.

Version 1.4 will most likely be a "final" version of YABOT although I will keep it updated through patches and bug fixes.

More soberly, thanks for all the hard work on YABOT. Much appreciated!

I think I will want to work on it, adjusting all the variables for artificially faster game speed and writing them down in a notebook. All I need to do is just simply decrease everything that is production time by 20%... not sure about attacking speed and walking speed. 20% increase too? Another issue is the mining speed... not sure if there is a way to decrease worker's time of harvesting.

P.S

I am pretty new to editor.

Edit:

link removed due to updated map below.

It actually doesn't take long to adjust. I just calculated all it off in my head. I have only made changes for protoss, though.

What I did change...

-modified all the units' walking speeds by increasing the value by 20% in movement tab.
-modified probe's acceleration by increasing the value by 20% in movement tab (for harvesting efficiency)
-modified mineral and gas harvesting time by decreasing the value of 20% in terrazine and mineral field's tabs
-modified all the probe's warping times for building by decreasing the value of 20% in each individual building's production time.
-modified all the units' attacking speeds by decreasing the value by 20% in weapon tabs
-modified the duration of chronoboost's effect from 20 seconds to 16 seconds.
-modified nexus' mana regeneration rate by increasing the value by 20%.
-modified nexus' probe production, from 17 seconds to 13.6 seconds.

What I haven't changed yet...

-shield regeneration rate (easily fixable)
-warp gate transformation animation (not sure how to make this faster)
-warping in units (probably easily fixable)
-upgrades' production time (easily fixable)
-some units' mana regenerations (easily fixable)
-most of the units' accelerations. (easily fixable)

I tried out some protoss openings at this speed, and I think the timing of build order (and timing attacks, etc) is still intact,

Edit 2:

here is the updated map.

http://sc2.nibbits.com/maps/view/135220/metalopolis-yabot

-made a lot of changes to terran and zerg... moving speed, energy regeneration, health regeneration, acceleration rate, turning rate, attacking speed, mana regeneration, etc etc etc, for ALL of the units and buildings.

-there are some problems... i still can't seem to figure out how to speed up warp gate transformation and warping in units for protoss. i can't find an option for speeding up the transformation from hatchery to lair/hive for zerg, either.

Hey guys. I got a little sick of having to edit the bank file to add builds, so I went ahead and made a little program. It's currently very untested and I can't find anyone that actually wants to try.

http://www.messy-mind.net/YabotEditorSource.rar

Here is the editor, and source code. It was written on a Windows 7 machine, and all I know is that it works on my Windows 7 machine. Just file, open, and select the YabotSettings.SC2Bank file in the Starcraft II/Banks section. Update changes one build order at a time (so if you press a build order, change it and click another without pressing update, it won't be updated.) Save will save it.

Let me know if it works, pass it along if it does.

Dude, love your app. I've been using it to clean up my bank files. It works great. Thanks for the effort.

Here's an idea for the next update: How about adding the Production Tab and the Unit Counting Tab to the maps. Knowing how far along our production is and how many units we have could really help develop some good builds.

Don't know if this map has a "Save Replay" option as well. That would be nice so we could watch it and see the timer timings for the builds.

I haven't found new versions on EU... maybe if the author sent me the maps, I could upload them there? I do have US account, but I can't be bothered to log on US account just to train builds... o.O

Totally support this idea. It would help immensely training build orders when you can easily keep track of the amont of drones you have etc with units tab, even just the ability to view yabot replays would be good enough.

Amazing work on this tool yabot guys!

I would really like to see the 15 step limit be removed. Would also be cool if yabot noticed when u shifted between none, reactor and tech-lab on buildings.

One important question: Is there a chance to release the YABOT-format as some sort of documentation so that other authors can create YABOT-compatible outputs? I am thinking about the other great SC2-tool out there and that is CarbonTwelve's "scbuildorder" rollout-simulation.

Hey guys, If I want a friend to be able to load yabot on EU server and be able to select a build order that i made using yabot, how do I do that? Can someone please explain it in simple terms because im really fucking dumb

what about a little message telling u when uve stopped mining or what ur current apm is or how far timing wise u are in ur build like little warnings and if u mess up it restarts automatically till u get it right and if u do something at the wrong time have it warn u.

Hey guys, I recently found YABOT (as in, yesterday) and am keen to formulate and practice some builds but it seems that since the recent patch YABOT no longer works. Does anyone know of any kind of fix / workaround until a new version is released?

For those of you interested, it turns out that the multiplayer version still works, so if you want your YABOT fix simply go multiplayer and you are good to go.

Hey guys, YABOT single player is broken because Green Tea AI is broken again... waiting a couple of days for a fix. Otherwise, I'll release it temporarily without Green Tea.

Any plans to release up-to-date MP maps on EU servers? They are only up as v1.1 at the moment

Is there a workaround to have the map work in the meantime? Thank you for your great work!

*at which point i noticed that the multiplayer version is still functioning. oh well.. =)
