I've been searching on the Internet for a few days now, but I can't seem to find ANY information about how terrain affects a unit's accuracy. Please help! :><:

I believe standing under certain/all non-unit sprites gives a 50% chance to hit; same for units on low ground attacking to high ground.

Thanks! :D The thing is, I want to know more about the accuracy percentage for terrain like, asphault, cracked ground, etc.

Other than the height of terrain, Starcraft terrain has no effect on accuracy that I know of.

Well, on the contrary, I've played Custom Hero Wars multiple times (Yes, I know it's stupid and unbalanced) and when I stand on the cracked ground, my unit tends to miss most of its shots, rather than actually hitting its target when my unit is on the "twilight?" terrain.

The cracked ground, is it rectangular terrain or normal isometrical terrain? If it's rectangular, it will just be a high ground piece, therefore only 50% will hit.

haha for sure. in some ways it's even more exciting because you can play EUD maps on regular battle.net, don't need to convince someone to download your mod to play with you. what did you do?
