One EUD Trigger =>Defeat screen in scoreboard

I have made some tests in different scenarios and it seems if I place one EUD trigger in the scenario, if I Win in game, be it using cheats or scenario conditions, I get the defeat screen in the scoreboard.
Could anyone point me in the right direction? I'm using latest SC:R, btw

We do a little trolling

From my understanding, this is a glitch that occurs based on the way EUDs function and there's nothing that can be done to prevent this, unfortunately. All my EUD maps do the same thing :(



My Projects:

Impossible Ultraviolet | Impossible UV 2 | Impossible UV 3
Mercenaries 2020 | Mercenaries III
Squad Defense

Legacy Projects (No guarantee of functionality in modern SC):

Pixel Adventure 2 | Space Snipers | Control the Ball

Using EUD triggers will do two major hindrances:

1. Cannot save/load the game since it's altering the game's (map's) memory state.

2. Unable to achieve victory screen since EUD triggers are a form of "cheating." This also means you will NEVER be able to use the Set Next Scenario action trigger, which is a big hindrance for anyone trying to make a custom campaign with EUD triggers.

But, wouldn't it be possible to Set Next Scenario with EUD's? Or how about Set Next Scenario with Defeat condition?

Edit: wouldn't there be a way to set Victory status with EUD's? Like, with this

?

Edit 2: no, it doesn't. Now I just end in a draw with the defeat screen. By the way, is there a way to set scoreboard stuff with EUD's? Like the aforementioned scoreboard background or player names, for example?

DarkenedFantasies -- Probably just didn't care. For example, at some point before release, they've updated the graphics of some of the Protoss buildings (Forge, CyberCore, Citadel, Observatory, Arbiter Tribunal), but instead of properly re-rendering them with edited 3D models, they did crappy copy-paste jobs on the rendered graphics.

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 Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it.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

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.

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:

Oh_Man -- makes me wonder if SEN knows anything about the topic
