To make them build you need to use AI triggers, but you can't specify what and how they build.

To fill the reavers all the time, use the Modify Hangar Count trigger.

Modify Unit Hangar Count is what it is called.

I'm going to skip the part where you move a location on the reaver.
Trigger
Players
  • All Players
  • Conditions
  • Always.
  • Actions
  • Add at most 10 to hangar for All Protoss Reaver at location "Reaver" owned by Current Player.
  • Preserve Trigger.

  • EDIT: To make the AI build and expand like it would in a melee map, run an AI script such as "Expansion Protoss Campaign Easy" that matches the race of the AI. You should only use the ones that have the format "Expansion <race> Campaign <difficulty>" because some scripts have limited and specialized uses.

    Why move a location? Just use Anywhere.

    In case he doesn't need reavers to always be refilled? A reloading system, perhaps?

    Ultraviolet -- I suppose we'll likely never know, but my guess would be that they already saw it operating successfully and there was no monetary incentive to finish the original work. And the dev cycle in old school Blizzard was so hectic, it's possible it just got forgotten about after the original game got released. Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it. And it's not like they remade the original MPQs, they just made new ones for BW specifically

    Oh_Man -- so that makes me think maybe the theory they are unfinished is not true and its a deliberate design decision, coz why not finish them wen ur making brood war?
    [2026-6-21. : 4:25 am]
    Oh_Man -- the thing is thos buildings are from classic. that means they went ahead and made brood war without ever finishing the 'unfinished' buildings
    [2026-6-20. : 6:15 pm]
    Ultraviolet -- Yeah he's talked about a lot of that stuff in his casts before. It seems plausible. Especially knowing how Blizzard of yesteryear operated.
    [2026-6-20. : 3:47 pm]
    NudeRaider -- to clarify: couldn't recall the behavior for every single Protoss building but I was aware the disparity exists.
    [2026-6-20. : 3:43 pm]
    NudeRaider -- Contained nothing new for me. Didn't know all building's behavior, but very much all unit's. Also Terran balance whine - also nothing new :lol:
