Where do I find out the attack range for all the ghosts or can anyone just tell me what their ranges are?



None.

theres a program called DatEdit, u can find it here
http://www.stormcoast-fortress.net/downloads/DatEdit15/download/

theres a tab that says "Weapons" and click w/e weapon and on the right it says the minimum range distance and the max, for the ghost its max range is 14 although im not quite sure if this includes the Occular Implant upgrade



None.

I think it's unupgraded sight range is 7 (8 in bunker) then 9 when upgraded

ᴄʜᴇᴇsᴇ ɪᴛ!

Datedit lists range in quarter squares. One square is 32x32 pixels, one quarter square is 16x16. A ghost's range is 14 quarter squares, 7 squares, or 224 pixels. Hero Ghosts are special, and for some reason Blizzard decided to nerf them down to a range of 12/6/192. Note that this is the range from the edge of the collision boxes of the targeted unit and the attacking unit.

Now, due to some reasons that nobody has ever explained to me, certain units like scourge, infested terran, broodling, and scv have different ranges than other "0" range units. Most "0" range units have an actual range of 15 pixels, but the four I listed have much less.

In bunkers, Marines and Ghosts gain a 1-2 range increase. IDK how it works anymore.

Sight range is different from attack range. Ghosts have 9 sight range (9 32x32 pixel squares) and 11 when upgraded. Yes, Blizzard switched it up again.

What is their range when upgraded? +2 32x32 squares, like the sight, or is that different too?

Are the heroes like the regs in this respect?

Their sight range is 11 when upgraded, so yes, sight range is just like sight range.

Heros automatically have all upgrades, except for Vulture speed upgrade, so they automatically have 11 sight range. You can't disable upgrades. You can disable tech. (cracklings will always have really fast attack and move speed, even if the corresponding upgrades for zergling are disabled. You can stop Duke from using siege mode or Danimoth from using spells if you disable that tech.)

NudeRaider -- EUD actions, specifically. The conditions remained. Today we can even have actions again, but they're all virtualized/whitelisted (not sure on the actual technical implementation) so you can only use them for specific intended purposed, not arbitrary code injections.

NudeRaider -- I mean yes, maps - through EUDs - were theoretically able to do that as well, but that was patched quickly.

Symmetry -- I vaguely remember Voy doing some ACE back in the day, but I had no idea EUDs could do that kind of shit. I am very much catching up on the technology

Symmetry shouted: NudeRaider Is EUD editor capable of writing shit onto the player's harddrive? That seems like it would be dangerous
yeah an editor that isn't allowed to write files sounds rather pointless, so I'd assume it can. Like most other programs too btw. and yes, obviously that's dangerous, but also kinda necessary. MS introduced that virtualization for exactly that reason.

Ultraviolet -- I don't think so. I think they shut that shit down after 1.16, maybe even earlier
