Yes, I meant a better method than vHP, but if you want to increase attack speed and other things you'll need to add a Dark Swarm gunner system, a vHP for that gunner, maybe you could make it slower or faster by moving units under it.

Yeah, the Dark Swarm gunner system is a masterpiece :). Still I am trying to create a new one (after I'm done/bored with the whole computer and hacking thing) which doesn't kill units in 1 hit and then cycle them to another player, nor is restricted to just one unit (Defiler). Sigh... to bad that are just wishes and the last time I worked on it I got stuck half way :P.

None.

Yeah it actually does ^^. With 1 click you can access any of these maps and continue browsing in those maps, or read text files or email, etc. One more click and you go one map back, or log out. In the picture you can see a sketch of your personal laptop which you will carry around at any times. When you are logged into an other, 'real' computer you will be able to active your laptop as well and be able to - for example - transfer files, plant a virus or try to hack yourself into the computers mainframe so you can do neat stuff like reading deleted logs, disabling nearby turrets or cameras, etc.
And everything has a nice GUI like the one in the picture; every single step just takes 1 action to do (so not: select unit C, walk to beacon A and kill unit B) making it a fast and easy to use system.

Hehe, I'm getting excited only be talking about it. Maybe if you are interested I can quickly copy/past already working scripts into a very short demo?

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.
