Is it possible to force a computer to restore you, after you have been blinded by a enemy medic?

Or is there some AI script that you have to use...?



None.

I was kindly redirected to this page when I asked a similar question

http://web.archive.org/web/20050419104615/www.staredit.net/index.php?tutorial=175

"
- Restoration -
*Seem to only use this on locked down units and ones stuck from maelstrom
*May use it only once or not at all even but you can provoke them to use it over and over if you attack the medic with something like a ghost
*They will use it on hero units but not allies
*Using a Terran melee AI seems to encourage more use
"

But if that doesn't work, my only other suggestion would be to remove and recreate the unit.



None.

According to that text the comp doesn't restore blind units at all.

And I can't remember to have it seen in game ever.

That means you will have to remove and recreate - as kaleidix said - or restore manually.

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 Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it.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