I don't quite understand how the game is allowing you to see information you haven't seen. Why would the engine do this?


It's just how peer to peer multiplayer works. All information exists in memory on each client, it's up to the client to hide things from you that you shouldn't be able to see. The problem in this case is that Blizzard overlooked the fact creep destroys doodads through fog of war without having vision.

The fact everything is in memory is also why maphacks are so easy to make.


So the information is always there, the problem is that it's not hiding doodads that are destroyed through creep. I guess that's an understandable thing to miss.

yeah im sure no one cares


Which explains the 5 pages of

"Nice find!" and "Wow crazy!" and "How did you notice that? Blizz better fix it!"




Anyone know what settings it is noticeable on? I wanna test this out, Is it possibly ultra terrain?

Wow, i really do hope that they will fix this issue very soon.

I got to tell you that it was reallt stupid of you to post it here really. Now there are alot of people here that are aware of the bug now.

Thx for ruining a few potential ladder games for me.


wow...just wow :D

I posted my opinion, it is my right.
Do not critizise it.


criticizing your opinion is everyone else's right in that case.


Well, he doesent have to accuse me of being a person that lies and annoys people for my own plaesure.

I am not a troll.. What i posted is how i truly feel.


I suggest you think things through for a bit.
If the people are not informed, urgency will not be issued on behalf of the community and Blizzard will never see their mistake.

Word travels fast, even when trying to contain it, if he didn't say anything and told Blizzard about it, someone would have picked it up eventually or be spread in another fashion and the same outcome would occur.

Don't condemn someone for informing the public because of the collateral damage it may cause. It's necessary to eventually fix what is truly "stupid"

The thread has also managed to potentially break any ZvX on LT. Yeah, word travels fast but the report function is there for a reason. New things don't become known automatically, just look at the magic box. Wasn't before a thread and youtube video was made after release it became common knowledge, yet a few people knew it since early beta.

there were several maps that had this problem before LT might have slipped through everyones eyes till now.

edit: thought they had fixed that along with the nexus and mule problem, oh well. Just remember don't make flowers or other doodads that are destroyed by creep near expos when mapping.

It would be funny if someone get accused of maphack and get banned from b.net beacuse he was looking in the fog of war searching for flowers.

I bet you feel like a badass for finding this don't you? Nice work though, I hate this map and maybe they'll take it out for awhile.
Apologize.

you can argue the other way around as well. I can say now everyone knows about this bug and can downvote lost temple to prevent themselves from being cheated. You dont know how many people are and were abusing this already - so if everyone is informed everyone can downvote the map also i feel like if it isnt public its very likely that blizzard will ignore the topic for a very long time. If its public and possibly game breaking they have to act fast.

/E looks like Blizzard has to rework like 3-4 maps in order to fix this or they have to remove/fix this doodad.

Have to agree with some other posters that said this should be submitted as a bug but not posted on the forums, which will exponentially increase the exploitation of it. That said, I'd probably be too tempted if I found something like this and do the same thing

Just out of curiosity is this all flowers on the whole base for LT or just the ones next to the minerals as shown in the pictures? If its just the ones near the minerals as shown in the pictures you should be able to see creep by that point.
+ Show Spoiler +
That is unless this bug/glitch/misfortune affects expansions too. Ie. A zerg starts morphing a hatchery at another main base and it makes the flowers disappear before the creep gets there.
