Yeah I just wanted to know what trigger is used to modify the amount of resources a mineral patch can have through triggers. Like constantly having it set to 8 if an worker unit is gathering from that specific mineral patch. It's probably a simple trigger, but I never found out how to do it. Lol.
afaik, its impossible to change the resources of a mineral patch with triggers
None.
No it's not...
It is possible to modify the resources, It's also possible to create mineral patches, or move them ( I forget how it was done) , I just want to know what triggers are used.

None.
There is a Modify Unit Resource Amount Action.
None.
Wow, I've never noticed that trigger. Lol. Thanks.
None.
I used a mineral display in my poker map.
Only drawback with the action is that you can only SET the number of minerals. That means one trigger for every number. Not a problem if you have the right tools though.

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 Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it.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