The heck... I would've bet my life a building destroyed while researching upgrades gave back 100% (in bw) but I just tested it myself and it certainly does not. edit: For real, I'm doubting my whole life now. Did they change this in a patch or something? It's odd so many people recall it being a 100% refund. Gonna investigate. Can't find any mention of it in the patch notes I found. | ||

Also I think by consciously canceling the upgrades your brain will remember you have that extra 100-ish minerals refunded, instead of automatic refund which you might forget it later on. | ||

Even morphing zerg units gets the morphing cost refunded if the cocoon is destroyed. The ONLY thing that doesn't get refunded after being destroyed is buildings. Wait, killing (not canceling) a cocoon grants a refund? | ||

Whoa - i usually cancel because i thought if you lost the building you lost the investment with it. But i guess not. Thanks for the revelation though ![]() | ||

There is times when a player cancels an upgrade and then the building lives with 1% health left. In this case you have lost the time investment and opened up timing windows that would not have been there otherwise. | ||

You mean after the car crashes. You are bad at making examples that relate to the question at hand. Also it is 100% because the players do not know for certain that the money will be refunded. | ||
