1: No tileset will give the red/black fade, at least not with anything I've tested. What I meant was no value less than 10 in the regular HP box will give the fade.
2: Hex editing doesn't do squat, but it's good info
3: The values above is what I put in the HP box. Negatives just appear injured.

EDIT: As an afterthought, maybe it was patched? The patch I had when I played the map was 1.14 or something. Since then I've had to wipe my hard drive a couple times, so I don't have the actual file.

O.o Maybe it was. I haven't played with this in a long time.

0 is normal because it doesn't add 1. 6+ is normal because the HP+1/Max is not significantly over 100% HP.

EDIT:
I just tested it. That is exactly it. 1.14 has the colors you listed, 1.13a has color cycling.

0-not-working makes sense...and I suppose something like 7/6 (~117%) isn't too funny...

Wait a tic, what if the max HP is the map limit...what would it look like then? Would it revert to 0/8whatever?

EDIT: darn, saw your edit. Close topic now?

I tested it a long time ago, but I don't remember. It'd probably just be -8388608/8388607.

You can do the same thing with unit sprites (they start with the game default HP value), except zerg's regen makes their health reset.

Gawd those are sexy ;o

Well, ima check out the +1 to map max thing real quick...

EDIT: new way to crash SC!!
if it's preplaced, it's fine, shows up hurt. But created with full health, it's max hp is 8388608, and it crashes. I didn't test with invincible, so maybe that won't crash.


But why would you give a unit that much to make it invincible?
