Hm no, I think it is 256 locs including Anywhere. So 255 placeable locations.
On vanilla SC you can only make 64 locs including Anywhere. On BW they extended it up to 256.

no, it only allows you to place Location 0 to 62, 63 is Anywhere, and then 64 to 254.

It's also retarded because locations are actually referenced 1-based. 0 = No Location, 1-255 = Location 0-254.

I was not sure if the index was 0-based or 1-based that's why I said I think :bleh:

. The CC chk spec is wrong there then.

You can place some burrowed units and reuse locations by centering locations on the burrowed units.

None.

Jul 24 2008, 8:52 pm BaneOfRome Post #9

The total number of placeable locations, I believe, is 256. Possibly it is 255, but as my computer hates all life, mine is 256

None.

None.

On vanilla SC you can only make 64 locs including Anywhere. On BW they extended it up to 256.

So "vanilla SC" is just regular StarCraft and "chocolate SC" or whatever more then 63 location are called, is StarCraft Brood War?

None.

I think any map that is after 1.04 has 255.

Jul 24 2008, 8:59 pm blac_k_night Post #13

lol why do you use vanilla and chocolate

None.

"Vanilla" is the original SC. There isn't "chocolate" as far as I know...

Tested it. When you make more than 63 locs in a map SE saves as compatible with either BW or Vanilla 1.04.

NimoStar -- It can by playing the same map thousands of times. It is similar to AI speedrunning games

[02:30 am]

Symmetry -- I dreamed about that as a kid. The idea of a computer capable of analyzing a starcraft map and calculating the fastest possible way to hit the victory condition

[02:29 am]

Symmetry -- But can AI beat my custom maps?

[12:32 pm]

Oh_Man -- yea APM vs eAPM

[2026-9-22. : 8:48 am]

NimoStar -- plus most of the human APM is just spam clicking APM inflation

[2026-9-22. : 8:47 am]

NimoStar -- the thing with the "*12" thing is completely misleading. The AI isn't using two control groups, it can use each of those actions to command a single unit individually and issue different commands to each single unit.

NudeRaider shouted: Oh_Man Artosis hasn't caught on how devastating the perfect focus fire is. With the mutas he was like "the Mutas always seem to have less hp than against a human". But he didn't notice that the flock he had selected always just had one muta that was hurt. Same with the wraiths here. He's talking about how valks+wraith is gonna destroy Pluto's valks, then 5s later he's dumbfounded the human player's air is just gone and he never figured out why. And for some reason didn't even think to go back and look at the battle.

*Pluto's wraiths

Vrael -- perhaps there is a small professional player trapped in a box in the server rack where pluto is running? hmm?
