All the buildings group as one and it issues a build command to the "best "available building in rotating fashion..
But the thing is if you have 2 tech labs and 2 reactors and you are building hellions and tanks you have to build 2 hellions then 2 tanks then 2 hellions when it rotates back to your reactor factories

Oh the map who were renamed have also some slight changes... a lot of new animal and doodad on the map to make them look better... but its still the same map.

a nerf yes, however not necessarily a HUGE nerf. it just means that its not an instant GG if you neural parasite 10 thors.

+2 (+2 light) (meaning a total of +4 to light per upgrade)

Wasn't it 100/100 patch 15?

So with 5 rax (2 tech lab, 2 reactor, 1 no addon) I just press 4 (to select them) then ddaaaaa and I will get the 2 marauders are 5 marines? And if I press aaaaadd I will still get 5 marines and 2 marauders? That sounds like an improvement to me.

It's really quite awful actually

but say you want to build only marines out of your reactor you can't go aaaa you have to select the reactor raxes themselves or settle for no tech lab production

why don't they just make reactors have priority making marines, as in reactors will always fill up to making 2 marines before it tries to make a marine in another barracks.

It is a HUGE nerf because normally I had like 1-4 units after the fight when i used NP in the right situations. I don't want to cry about this but the thing that really makes me angry is that this is not in the patchchanges -.-
Guess my signature will stay for a while...

is it just me, or do creep tumors spread creep a shitload faster?
Edit:
i was mistaken, it was just a modification of the build order tester. but i'm loving the graphical updates, being the graphics whore that i am. for one, the zerg buildings are integrated into the creep and morph more naturally, and now i must go to bed. more fun tomorrow.

It's a really convoluted system and just adding back in the tab would require less work on both sides.

Critters are back! I just killed a bear at steppes of war.

I think Roach Speed was 100/100 prepatch? It's 150/150 now

Lol, neural parasite. That's pretty huge.
Ultralisk buff so now it actually works, but infestor....
Come on : /

With regards to Terran changes, can you just build Tech lab stuff first and marines last? Get in the habit of doing marauders and ghosts before spamming AAAA. I actually wanted this change when playing Terran.

So if I'm getting this right you are going to be punished if you queue? sounds great to me

weapon speed is now listed under unit stats. Not balance related but an interesting change
edit: No blinking up destructible rocks
