See the spec here: http://www.starcraftai.com/wiki/CHK_Format#.22UNIS.22_-_Unit_Settings

It says that there are 228 u16s for weapon damage / weapon upgrade bonus:

Quote

u16[228]: Base weapon damage the weapon does, in weapon ID order (#List of Unit Weapon IDs)
u16[228]: Upgrade bonus weapon damage, in weapon ID order

However, If I try reading more than 130 u16s for those sections, I run out of bytes to read. I think the format should say this:

Quote

u16[130]: Base weapon damage the weapon does, in weapon ID order (#List of Unit Weapon IDs)
u16[130]: Upgrade bonus weapon damage, in weapon ID order

None.

Yes, you are correct. iirc UNIS should have 100 and UNIx should have 130.

Alright, how do we update that page so it's correct?

While a slight mistake, this is a little concerning.

What other mistakes could there be in that CHK specification page?

None.

I think you have to have an account on the wiki to be able to make edits.

I'm not sure why those values were changed to 228, they are correct in the source article linked at the top of the page.

No other mistakes jump out at me, but that doesn't mean there aren't any more. XD

I invite you to try out the map I modified. I don't have the creativity to create maps from scratch, but I do have the know-how to modify existing ones; my project is to tweak community campaigns (specifically those with errors—to make them playable.

Ultraviolet shouted: Mr.BurnLiquid actually yeah though I wasn't really saying it to narc on you. It just caught me off guard because I don't usually see it (because it's against the rules) "The avatar may not be bigger than 150x150 pixels". Kinda silly that it relies on users to be well behaved rather than just limiting the dimensions on uploads :lol:

Now that I wanted to change my avatar, the error image is showing up, haha.

Mr.BurnLiquid shouted: Ultraviolet Thanks; I'm new to the site and a Spanish speaker. I must have missed the part where it was prohibited—I'll change it now.

I invite you to try out a mission I'm modifying from *StarCraft Reversed*; I'm trying to make it more playable and challenging.

Mr.BurnLiquid shouted: Ultraviolet Is it forbidden to have a large avatar?
