Bug Fixes General Pathing has been adjusted. Units will once again take the most optimal route to their destinations. Variables.txt will now automatically recover from invalid combinations that could lead to performance issues. Added additional information to the FPS Toggle. Fixed a number of cases where hotkeys could not be bound in certain keyboard configurations. Fixed a crash that could occur in custom maps when improperly destroying triggers. Fixed a crash that could occur in custom maps when canceling building progress using triggers. Fixed a number of crashes and de-syncing issues that could sometimes occur in Arcade games. Mac The functionality for the “Use command instead of control for hotkeys” option has been clarified: When Command as Control is checked, this enables command as control and disables command for right-click. When Command as Control is unchecked, this disables command as control and enables command for right-click. MacOS hotkey commands are now working properly when StarCraft II is in focus. http://sea.launcher.battle.net/en-us/sc2/patch?utm_source=internal&utm_medium=launcher&utm_campaign=d3&utm_content=left-banner | ||

What does this means ? Does it fix the language problem thing where I have to change variables.txt each time I switch between EU and NA or is this a different thing ? | ||

Variables.txt will now automatically recover from invalid combinations that could lead to performance issues. I'll have to check if this messes with the new relocalization method. I hope that is really about performance issues and not a guise by blizzard to disallow asset switching. | ||

Does it fix the language problem thing where I have to change variables.txt each time I switch between EU and NA or is this a different thing ? Likely not, they probably just found some combinations of things could be added manually that could cause performance issues that couldn't be achieved with the client so they made it auto-repair itself. On another note: hooray desync changes! I was sick of getting a game of star strikers only to have it desync. | ||

Thought about this, I have done other changes that I don't remember that I need to have done. I'm assuming tomorrow is optimizing them for us so I'll just let it do it on it's own. Honestly though, have no idea what I'm doing. Edit: Would I just be better off deleting it? :D | ||

the pathing change I think is the true hero and highlight of this patch though. will prevent the random units wondering off for some reason. select 5 probes 1 goes to the selected area the other 4 with the same action take the scenic route was so annoying... glad thats gone. | ||

Mine went up by 2-3c, not a big deal but just wondering whether other people are experiencing the same thing. I would say it's within margin of error meaning the patch probably didn't affect it and you had another program open or something, if it went up by 5-10c then it would be something. | ||

I have done a clean install of all graphics and audio drivers, reinstall SC2, defragged my hard drive, freed up tons of HD space, and I still get horrible FPS drops. That's not the issue, something else is going on for some of us. | ||

Ultralisk has a range of 1. it has to get within 1 range to attack theres another field. called Range Slop. it's also set to 1. what does this field do? it's the maximum distance the unit can attack from AFTER it has started it's attack animation. so a unit is in 1 range. ultra starts attacking. unit runs away. if it reaches greater than 2 range away from the ultralisk before the damage point (the point in the animation where damage is applied) the attack is canceled. it's just a mechanic. units move too fast for the ultra to hit it. sucks to be them. you can increase this field. but then you're going to see stupid shit like a stimmed marine 3-5 range away from the ultra dying. then applying splash damage to all nearby marines. wat?. FYI ultralisk damage point is 0.3332 seconds. thats even less on faster. | ||

Does it fix the language problem thing where I have to change variables.txt each time I switch between EU and NA or is this a different thing ? there are multiple variables.txt files. the global one in your Documents/Starcraft II/ Folder, and the one in your Account folder. i have two accounts, too, and the game kept switching from english to german, until i 1. quit the game (important, because it seems to overwrite the file when you quit it. 2. set Language settings in variables.txt to enGB (or whatever suits you), in all files. (global and one per account) 3. start game 4. maybe quit and check the variables files, just to be sure it worked btw: if you set the language setting to enGB in each file, the game will remove it from every one. i guess because default is enGB:-) | ||

If the unit they are attacking is half a screen away from them by the time their attack animation finishes then yes I think its fair to say its intended that the unit escaped damage. | ||

Now with the latest 1.5.2 patch Blizz enabled global play. What did they say about the HoTS beta start? Hmmm, lemme remember... Got it. They said the start of HoTS beta will give global play as well or vice versa. So? | ||

Meaning they're a lot worse than a weed dealer and a lot better than a crack/heroin dealer ^^ You could probably never go alone to make a deal but you most likely wouldn't need a gun ;-) If they were dealing weed. You would regurlarly find your weed being wet, low to medium quality, weighing less than they say & having a lot of seeds and stems. Much of the time they wouldn't even sell you any. Being busy patching things up with their supplier ;-) | ||

SEA accounts have the option to play on North America as well as SEA. So, thats not global play. Thats been that way. The patch notes say nothing about global play; thus im curious where this is coming from. | ||
