Is there a way to force the computer to upgrade damage? Will the computer only upgrade to level 3? Or will the computer only upgrade 3 levels?



None.

Isn't this the same question?

I don't know of a way, there might be some AI script that makes computers more likely to, but I doubt it could ever be reliable enough.

And just a guess but I doubt computers will upgrade to more than 3, even if they are able to.

No, they are not the same question. Only upgrading to level 3 means it will only upgrade till it says a 3 in the upgrade box. Upgrading 3 levels means that it will upgrade 3 levels, so it could be preset to 6, and the computer will only upgrade 3 times.

I don't think there is any way of forcing them to upgrade. Except for using EUD actions, which have been disabled... So from my knowledge, you're out of luck.

I used a method in Random Quest RPG where each player had a different set of upgrades, like, let's say the enemy had marines, hydralisks, and dragoons, and I had 3 computers, I would have one computer be upgraded with 3 for all of them, another would have 6, and the last one 9, and when I wanted to upgrade, I just created the units for the higher level player instead.

I thought that if you used 'Give Unit to Player' and gave a unit with an upgrade to a player who has not researched that upgrade, the player you are giving it to gets the upgrade? (Like, if Player 1 had researched Spider Mines, but Player 2 hadn't, and a trigger gives one of Player 1's Vultures to Player 2, Player 2 gets Spider Mines for free.) Does this apply to upgrades like Terran Infantry Weapons or Zerg Carapace? If so you could use Give Units to Player to give a player upgrades... Or am I wrong?

That's research, not upgrades. Although the energy falls under the "upgrades" category, it's also transferred.

The only way to make a computer upgrade is through a custom AI script or just by having multiple cpus with different ups each.

Yeah, that's why I always had the ones with the highest upgrades given to last.

haha for sure. in some ways it's even more exciting because you can play EUD maps on regular battle.net, don't need to convince someone to download your mod to play with you. what did you do?
