Ok, Orid Ibanna's fate rests in your hands now. If I can't fix this, OI is canceled.
Anyway...
Any Multiplayer game in OI desyncs in the first 5 minutes. So, that narrows it down to about 10 different units. I have never experienced desyncs before, so I have no idea how to fix them. So, I ask you: What sorta things desync games?

Desyncs are mainly caused by you trying to do something random that both computers don't execute at the same time.
For example, you can't have random waits for buildings. Stuff like that. Look over what you've done and see if anything pops out at you.
None.

That could make sense, considering all buildings have random waits. I'll try it out, thanks!

Yeah I remember AA had the random wait desync problem at the beginning, thats definitely the problem or at least one of them.
Yep, that's the first thing you'll have to get rid of. I still haven't figured out exactly what the cause of it is, but my original guess is how buildings are displayed through the fog of war.
None.

It was PM that had that problem i think.
None.
It worked DOA, Orid Ibanna is now back in full swing production!

Polaris now has also learned the value of a few good heavy ships.

Yes, I have, which are getting nerfed, as well as a unit to counter them.

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 Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it.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
NudeRaider -- to clarify: couldn't recall the behavior for every single Protoss building but I was aware the disparity exists.
