How do you change the size of the green box that appears when you try to construct a building? How do you change the space the SCV needs to build the building?



None.

That bites. Looks like I'm gonna have to just use a different building for now.

ALL PRAISE YOUR SUPREME LORD CORBO

An external link to campaigncreations to a more than outdated tool and if you click the link you don't even find anything useful.... nice...

Anyway, sub, have you tried playing with datedit? I believe there's a "placement box" prompt on the staredit tab.
Just select the building and find the options I'm talking about.
Also, you might wanna use only multiples of 32. other numbers might turn up weird I guess.



fuck you all

LOL
Wow. I was messing around with editting the .dat files over and over trying every little thing I could think of
But I never tried the "Staredit" tab because I thought it was only Campaign editor related stuff.
Thanks

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 Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it.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?
[04:25 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:
