Can you explain how, by any chance. I didn't know replicating it was even possible. Walling is probably the most important in the FFE. | ||

it's there in that zerglings and other small units slip in between buildings. it's possible to do in sc2. the hard part is stuff like marines horizontally but not vertically. because they are circles in sc2, where as they were rectangles in BW. http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft/List_of_Unit_and_Building_Sizes i tried my best to make all traditional wall offs work the same or as close to as in BW. the same wall offs seen on liquipedia should be possible in my maps, atleast most of them. there might be some slight differences in terms of what units can slip through what, i can't remember exactly. | ||

You added dot in URL so it doesn't work. But that's freaking amazing work on details. I'd love for i.e. TLS finalists to play showmatch in SC2:BW mod. I wonder if that's possible. With a bit of a prize so that they won't play for fun only. | ||

preview for update i started working on during the tournament. ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/azIjBeYl.jpg) so this is the different mining rates per race. according to liquipedia. this is the mining rates Terran - 182 Frames = 7.583 seconds Zerg - 174 Frames = 7.25 seconds (+4.59%) Protoss - 154 Frames = 6.41 seconds (+18.18%) (!!!!) i've gotten this as close as i can, roughly my rates equal to Terran - 7.42 Zerg - 7.1 (+4.37%) Protoss - 6.45 (+14.998%) im pretty close, will continue to tweak it, also gonna have to look at gas rate. as it seems way too fast. everyone seems to think so  . | ||

Players would have the same gas banking issues in BW when they kept all workers harvesting gas, I don't think there's much of a difference. A standard 3 hatch muta play lines up to having ~900 gas and 9 larva. Gas harvesting can't be off by much if timings generally line up. Mining rate adjustments are really interesting though. Think it makes less and less of a difference as you go above 1 worker per mineral saturation. | ||

A standard 3 hatch muta play lines up to having ~900 gas and 9 larva. Gas harvesting can't be off by much if timings generally line up. I'm am not sure about the gas either, but if I had to guess I would say it needs to be scaled as well (although it should be tested first). The acceleration modifier will fix both minerals and gas however. The problem with that example is that you were already mining a bit too fast - if the mineral income was modified but not the gas, then you would be left with relatively more gas and less minerals (hence timings would not line up appropriately). | ||

Eraser works, but using it on a lurker does not. This made me have a lot of issues when playing SK Terran style vs a heavy lurker style.... yea, im aware, will be fixed in next update. | ||

Sounds like normal BW. You couldn't stutter step anywhere near like you can in SC2, if that's what you're trying to do? It's much more clunky. For example, 6 lings could beat 4 marines in BW (not in a choke at least), while 6 lings would lose to 3 marines in SC2. | ||
