good work, nice write up, I had often wondered about the SCBW/SC2 gas situation in terms of position.

Great work, while it might not be game breaking, knowing this can give small edge in some games.

So, you're telling me that how close a geyser is actually matters now due to the powerful AI? Thanks! ^_^

Sarcasm aside, very nice find. Now we can more accurately adjust our builds according to map positions :D (not too feasible during Ladder, but just imagine the implications on competitive gaming)

This will be really helpful for custom maps


and one has to wonder why Blizzard didn't do any of these calculations, leading to positional imbalances on a couple maps.

This is the most important image in your post imo. All the 79% and 74% spots mine at 100% with 3 workers.

So if we want maps to be standardized with respect to gas mining we'd use only the 79% with 2 workers spots. Alternatively, use one 79% and one 74% or just 74% spots.

It is interesting that the result is mostly symmetrical but gas on top mines slower than elsewhere.
