I bet at 12, the normal worker count(without cutting) I just tested it on Entombed valley my self and did it at 1:35 without this trick just the normal worker stacking on closer minerals, sometimes I rather use my apm to stack workers since it will be worth it after the 1st minute too, and on top of that I position hotkey 4 places as soon as the game starts. | ||

And then, with your method, there are two different speeds that the SCV is supposed to be going at. The new speed based on all waypoints and the old one for a single waypoint. You could also get around this by adding additional waypoints and then canceling them. First scenario (adding waypoints at the last second): if you leave it till the last instant the SCV will already be decelerating. The code checks how far away the new waypoint is from the first and simply allows the deceleration to continue. If the waypoint is queued earlier, the deceleration will be queued too. Second scenario (canceling additional waypoints): the test is performed between any sequential waypoints, not just the last. Any very close together waypoints would trigger deceleration. You could still click past minerals and then on them just as the worker reaches them, but I doubt that would be practical and could be fixed even if it were: "Just scoot on by," the boss-man said, "No need to stop and mine!" The SCV was sceptical, but hastened from the line. "Now dig!" the boss-man screamed as past the minerals he sped, But SCV demurred, and from the manual he read: "'The operator must, before deploying any drill, Slow the vehicle with the braking pedal, smoothly and until A velocity commensurate with safety is attained.' So by tricking me no notable advantage may be gained." | ||

edit: 60 may be unrealistic. the video above says that mineral boosting towards the minerals only increases mining by 4 %. Mineral boosting towards your cc probably adds another 4%. | ||

oops sorry, you're right still, it seems slower for me than just 2-clicking as many drones as possible. im sure we will see some wacky preferences emerge if this stays in the game | ||

And then did you watch the next 30 seconds where he shows you how to eliminate deceleration by clicking near the mineral and then shift right clicking on the mineral? | ||
