Get DatEdit and look up the ranges with that.

The normal sized grid, each tile of terrain.

ᴄʜᴇᴇsᴇ ɪᴛ!

Ranges are in half tiles in datedit I think.

There's also a "preview fog" option in scmdraft.

Oh_Man -- NudeRaider
NudeRaider shouted: Oh_Man Artosis hasn't caught on how devastating the perfect focus fire is. With the mutas he was like "the Mutas always seem to have less hp than against a human". But he didn't notice that the flock he had selected always just had one muta that was hurt. Same with the wraiths here. He's talking about how valks+wraith is gonna destroy Pluto's valks, then 5s later he's dumbfounded the human player's air is just gone and he never figured out why. And for some reason didn't even think to go back and look at the battle.
yeh thts straight up cheating

Oh_Man -- arty's done another vid. he's also announced he's going to organise showmatches with pro, with NO maphacks, so we can see its actual capabilities

NimoStar -- It can by playing the same map thousands of times. It is similar to AI speedrunning games
