Yeah -.-

But, still don't see how that is a bad thing, Every race has its pros and cons, sure Terran buildings can be halted mid construction via killing the SCV, but they can also fly and be repaired

============================

The SCV Wandering purposefully negates an attack command to help protect the SCV while it is constructing a building. Maybe it simulates the fact that it's working in a freaking building, and there are lots of places to run around in there, or maybe it's simply Blizzard saying "you cannot just a+click a worker and stop a building from being constructed."

Just like the Patrol Flowers, shift clicking on SCVs constructing buildings is bugged and should be fixed. It's bad enough that Terran is the only race that can have a building halted in mid construction.

Terran fellows - on to battle.net, now, and report this as a bug.

You mad bro? Flying buildings that can be repaired, fly, and be lowered in exchange for being halted a couple of seconds...

It's like you forget that your opponent is losing minerals pulling workers to attempt to halt your building construction.

Report this as a bug all you want, but the fact of the matter is this is working as intended and you know it.

I'm not saying the SCV should be invulnerable. I'm saying that shift a+clicking a wandering SCV is a bug and should be fixed. You can still kill the SCV.

Read again, maybe?



Also, it kinda sounds to me like you're only talking about bunker rushes ... Otherwise, why on earth would you be pulling workers to attack an SCV building a rax or supply depot

See, bunkers in proxy locations are not the only buildings that a Terran needs to construct

I just shift A-click the worker constructing the bunker or building... Thought this was common knoweledge already

The average person A-moves when they're close to the SCV. This of course is less than ideal since the AI idles your attacking worker once the SCV moves do the opposite side of the barracks or a second SCV attacks your attacking worker.
