The technique is called mineral stacking and its been known for a while to give a slight mineral boost in the early game. Simply put, some minerals are closer than others, so ensuring that all workers mine exclusively from these close mineral patches gives you more resources.

It also gives you something to do in the early stages of the game .

So ive begun watching some of the hots showmatches as of late and i have noticed that the production tab has changed its looks. Now there is a wide space between the images that are in the production tab, where as before there was no space between them.

Does anyone know of the reason this has been done?

For me it seems stupid, as now the production tab takes up even more space for no reason what so ever.

Thx

PS. I mean all the tabs in the top left of the screen when observing.

Does anyone know how to make it so I can select enemy buildings? Kind-of pointless to scan the enemy's base when I can't even select the buildings that are warping in :/

Does hallucinations trigger widow mines? What if there is a detector revealing it for the mine?

Check the option - gameplay tab. There should be a box titled "simple command card" that you should uncheck.

Same as above, there should be a box "disable enemy unit selection" that you should uncheck.

Does anyone know of the reason this has been done?


The icons in the production tab (as well as unit tab, and maybe a few others) are now buttons that you can click to show where are the units of the given type, building researching the upgrades, and so on. Great feature if you ask me, no longer having to search for that hidden spire.

Hallucination do trigger widow mines, but I don't know if it still works when there is a detector. Maybe someone could enlighten us ?

Is the only way to get the 3 custom icons + ultralisk skin to order the digital deluxe edition from Blizzard? Will my Amazon HOTS copy (standard) not have them?

Really?? Damn.. I've only seen it used briefly but from what I saw it looked really potent so thought it was being removed because it was too powerful and not because it was underused, lol..

Hi,

Quick questions.

If we have WOL fully downloaded, do we have to download full HOTS again ?
If we have HOTS beta fully downloaded, do we have to download full HOTS again ?

Thank you.

Well I've just tried the "new" carrier micro in the WoL where I can switch targets in leash range and it seems to me that I can't switch the target if the first target dies. I'm not sure if I'm doing it wrong or something or whether that's the way the new carrier micro is. Is it the same thing in HoTS beta? I'm having a hard time believing it as it's almost meaningless; you probably only wanna switch targets when the first target dies.

tldr: can you switch targets in carrier leash range when the first target dies?

Is the APM in hots bugged? In WoL I'd be averaging about 80 APM, but then I played a couple games today and it says I was averaging ~190 APM. Is this legit?

So I play grid, and it's pretty irritating that they moved some of the commands and hotkeys around. I can get used to that, but I can't find SCV auto repair. Is that not in HOTS? Is it only manual repair now?

Edit: I turned off simple command card too.
