is there any way to fix the "i hotkeyed 20 units, i can control them for a second until the 12 unit limit is enforced" thing? i keep selecting my probes with my nexus and moving them off mining while i'm spamming. Also punishes me for having a fast 1a2a3a
sadly no 
atleast not to my knowledge
theres no way to have triggers or anything like that run on the client, while unit selection and other hard coded ui elements are.
the delay is based on whatever your ping is to battle.net
the laggier it is the worse the delay
i've scoured the entire data editor multiple times looking for maybe theres just some simple field im missing called "maximum selected units" or something but there doesn't seem to be.
more than likely my trigger is inefficient and could be redone to be faster. but this would mean a 2-5ms difference at best.

isn't the maximum based on the type of variable used to store the hotkeyed groups? like it caps out at 255 or something right? could you just define a new variable that is only 0-12 or something?

only if blizzard adds a field into the data editor that lets me change that variable

Sounds like a pretty good idea, especially if someone ever decides to try and create a Warcraft 3 Total Conversion.
Hope Blizzard does this...

Thoughts inspired by the people posting on page 145:
1. Thanks to MaverK for putting in so much time to do this,
and
2: Kiante, nice try against TLO on said sc2bw maps in TLA.

Pylon radius is too small in the current version. Can only get 1 gateway horizontally next to a pylon
There's a bit of a problem that in SC2 the pylon power field is a circle, while in BW it's closer to an elipse, it's larger horizontally and it's shifted a bit towards the left, so if you make it fit the same buildings horizontally, it would be able to fit more vertically.
I dunno if it's even possible to remake it properly though.

the map is a little bit smaller, but most conversions from bw to sc2 are.

why does this have to be the case?

Maps can't exceed a certain size, or you can't upload them.

but gigantic 8 player fastest map maps exist. surely they can throw a few more pixels in?

the center distance to bridge might be too much to fix
bridge width i can however fix

the distance to the centre is the biggest problem. I played a pvt and the push was pretty much unstoppable by ground because it was too cramped to get my zealots into the tank line....

well, what do you reckon, the center walls are too big or the center mass/island is too small in general, i could probably replace the walls that surround the center expansion with something smaller. but physically increasing the center of the map will be a huge HUGE job
i had always felt the mains were too big aswell, but reducing their size is basically the same process
iccup's fighting spirit (the one im using) is 139x136 by camera bounds, while sc1 is 128x128

The thing is that SC 1x1 is larger than SC2's 1x1, thus 128x128 would be more like 160x160... If you consider the isometric perspective, it would be more like 196x160. :T

indeed, hence why my remake of andromeda is much taller than wide.
im leaning towards resizing all units again, i feel like even if the grids are slightly different size they still line up with buildings and walls
thing is to make a dragoon fit in a 1x1 square it needs it's size almost halved. units will be much smaller. but that might be accurate.

is there some way to tell the exact difference between 1x1 in BW and 1x1 in SC2?

yea, ty, i've fixed destination
hatchery bug will be more interesting however

128 x 128 maps from bw to sc2 are generally in the 150 x 150 range NOT 190/160. almost everything from bw to sc2 is different in size so changing certain units sizes is not the best idea imo.
