There is one problem: I cant see this button! Can you tell me where is an error?
None.
I`m trying to make a custom upgrade for Terrans wich will rise their bildings armor after been researched. At first i've defined in Datedit that it's Upgrade55 wich will do it.Then i've modified that upgrade's cost and time and made it usable for terrans only. After that i've made (with firegraft) a button in EngineeringBay buttonset wich must start upgrade once clicked.

My initial guess would be the reqs in FireGraft. Did you update those?
None.
Yes, i think i did it, but may be i made some mistakes...
Here take a look at the changes ..

Hm. Well, I just ran a test... I copy-pasted the reqs from Terran Infantry Armor to Unused Upgrade 55 in FG, gave the Ebay a button to upgrade it, and set max repeats to 1 in upgrades.dat; this worked fine. Try copying the reqs like I did? It really shouldn't matter, but it may have for whatever reason. I'm attaching the test mod I made, incidentally.

Well, I did replace the infantry armor button with the new one because I was lazy. >.> So that's why that's gone. But the button very definitely showed up when I ran the test. So... What.
None.
Ok after i've started new FFA game it worked. Thank you very much.
Btw, do you think this game has a perfect balance in all match-ups? Or may be its still worth to try make it better?

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 Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it.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[2026-6-21. : 4:26 am]
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[2026-6-20. : 6:15 pm]
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.[2026-6-20. : 3:47 pm]
NudeRaider -- to clarify: couldn't recall the behavior for every single Protoss building but I was aware the disparity exists.[2026-6-20. : 3:43 pm]
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
