At least it was the last time I played this. Correct me if I'm wrong. | ||

I have not looked closely on how all units movent and attack behave in Starbow. If anyone has suggestions on units to improve, please let me notice and I will look at it! http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=125146 You should contact Sluggaslamoo. I have to say this mods looks very promising, unlike HotS. I think you should give Roach's attack animation to Hydras since pretty much everybody considered their BW attack to be acid spitting, despite what blizzard claimed. ^____^ And Lurker's attack sound. | ||

Blizzard just doesn't appear to be fixing the raw issues that are wrong with SC2 and are instead just putting in new units that are more bw'ish as a bandaid fix. I'm honestly super excited for the campaign though. Mabye 4v4 for hilarious fun with bros like when sc2 came out, but if it really isn't much better of a game I won't bother with ladder. | ||

I have also fixed the Ultralisk armor! It no longer has 10 armor. The problem was that I have two dependencies added to each map. One is the Starbow MOD, the other is the high ground bonus system. When I looked closer at the latter, I found that it had set the Ultralisk armor to 10 and that value overwrites the Starbow value. I have almost been able to solve the siege tank damage now. I want it to deal 35/50/65 dmg. (Just as before) Its not working quite right yet, but hopefully I can crack it. (Thanks LaxSalmon for the guidance!) I am also trying to solve this weird Dark Swarm bug. (Where it floats up in the air sometimes) You can see it at 14.20 in this clip: If anyone wanna help me with this, please open Starbow via the editor (its unlocked) and look at my actor events for Dark Swarm. (Something is probably going bananas in there, even though it looks quite normal to me..) If you find anything suspicious, please let me know! Edit: By the way, is the current lurker sound that bad? Is it that you don´t hear it, or is it an ugly sound? | ||

Is it that you don´t hear it, or is it an ugly sound? my SC2 editor-fu is weak, but my bugfix-fu is stronger. the first step to solving the problem is to identify when (and under what circumstances) it happens. that will let us isolate what makes it happen and ultimately how to fix it. from observation in the video it looks like it flies up when a flying unit enters the area (the first one flies up when the swarm guardian enters, the second one stutters a little before, and then flies up when the science vessel enters) from the assumption that "flying unit cause it to fly up" I went into starbow, created a few of every zerg units on the map "oakshire", and tried moving them into dark swarms in different places and situations. conclusion: the bug does not exist on oakshire, or it requires a combination of units that 1 player cannot produce by himself. for example, it might require a flying unit to be attacked while it is under darkswarm. the next step is one that I would need help with. I want to recreate the exact scenario of the one in the video, terran command centers and missile turrets under the dark swarms, same map, same place. if that fails to recreate the bug, then I would stop and re-check examples of when it occurs and see if there is something that was done wrong. if it succeeds in recreating the bug, then I would try to remove things which seem like they are not necessay, and try to find out exactly what circumstances are required for the bug to occur. any volounteers for bugtesting? p.s. I noticed that lurkers that are morphing appearently dont have a rally-point the way broodlords, corruptors and banelings have, I assume this is not intended. there is at least no visual rally point. | ||

Laertes is the publisher on NA and has been for a while. If both of you publish Starbow maps it will be hard to determine what version is the latest and maps can get mixed up. I will ask Laertes if he wishes to continue publish Starbow, otherwise you can take his role. | ||
