That's it. After the drone begin to morph into these bildings they have only 10% of their health and upon spawn remain heavly damaged. Is it possible to make them grow like normal zerg bildings?



None.

Did you put the build time really small? That causes that effect, iirc.



None.

It will be some combination of your build time and HP that you set the building to. As bio suggests, the first thing is to look at is increasing the build time.



None.

Nope. All default.
I think it may be hard coded becouse when you bild spore colony from creep colony u have S.C hp = C.C. hp
F.Ex. if creep colny has 270 hp u'll have sunk with 170>hp or spore with 270>hp
There is nothing about in Firegraft's exe edit afaik.



None.

DarkenedFantasies -- Probably just didn't care. For example, at some point before release, they've updated the graphics of some of the Protoss buildings (Forge, CyberCore, Citadel, Observatory, Arbiter Tribunal), but instead of properly re-rendering them with edited 3D models, they did crappy copy-paste jobs on the rendered graphics.

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 Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it.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

Oh_Man -- so that makes me think maybe the theory they are unfinished is not true and its a deliberate design decision, coz why not finish them wen ur making brood war?
[2026-6-21. : 4:25 am]
Oh_Man -- the thing is thos buildings are from classic. that means they went ahead and made brood war without ever finishing the 'unfinished' buildings

Ultraviolet -- Yeah he's talked about a lot of that stuff in his casts before. It seems plausible. Especially knowing how Blizzard of yesteryear operated.

NudeRaider -- to clarify: couldn't recall the behavior for every single Protoss building but I was aware the disparity exists.

NudeRaider -- Contained nothing new for me. Didn't know all building's behavior, but very much all unit's. Also Terran balance whine - also nothing new :lol:

Oh_Man -- makes me wonder if SEN knows anything about the topic
