I say keep it in, but don't allow MULEs to do it. That doesn't seem fair.

it seems with the new patch 1.1 this will no longer be possible

we will see in a short while when the patch goes up

"+ Fixed an issue that, in certain cases, allowed a command to be issued that did not appear on the command card"

im glad, as nony said it should be removed

Can we get a confirmation that 1.1 killed mineral boosting?

I think it should still work, but will be harder to pull off, given that you have a shorter window of time to issue the commands.

Maybe I'm wrong...

I'm not going to argue that it gives top players something to do. I think you're fooling yourself if you think the game is better in any regard because of it. If it was suggested in the pre-beta as a feature, you'd probably cry and whine about it.

Eh, I hated this when I first read about it, but now it's pretty much second nature to me now. Build, split, click, hold shift and spam rightclick/c on every worker.. it just feels natural now.
now run into the setting sun, and suffer, but don't mess up your hair.

I've been trying a bit, and it actually seem to be working on harvesting gas as well. However I'm not sure that the way I'm testing it/doing it is completely correct, so can somebody else confirm/deny this?


theoretically it shouldnt work.. why?
1: with 3 guys on gas, one or two being faster would just screw up the timing, making it pointless.
2: as europe is currently down i can't check this, but does gas even have a return cargo?
3: the thing that this trick is fixing is the SCV standing with the minerals idle for a split second, the gas doesn't work in the same way.
despite this it might work in practice though.. no clue ^^

How about this. Method 4:
Set your keyboard settings like so: [image loading]
Then select all your workers, press the return cargo hotkey on your keyboard and hold it.

That's all.

Sadly, no-1 will not have high apm anymore.+ Show Spoiler +

While this WILL give a short boost, I don't think it is entirely viable, as you lose efficiency every time you have to do anything else, like building a drone...

If Blizzard acknowledges it and leaves it in then I will start doing it, but right now I don't want to get in the habit and then have them remove it.
There are several good protections against temptation, but the surest is cowardice
