I've hit a snag in an idea where a Zerg building will be replaced by a Terran one, but, the creep from the Zerg building prevents the Terran building from being built. Is there any way to remove the creep instantly from a 3x2 location (or 2x3, I'm not sure which goes in front of which)?



None.

You could possibly make the terrain the building is on top of non buildable.... but then you can't place the new Terran building. You could also make the terrain around the building non-buildable, which would make the creep under the building disappear more quickly.

Create Vespene Geysers over the creep and it will disappear.

But then they see a huge ugly pile of rock everytime ;D it just depends on how much your willing to put into a map.

The vespene trick didn't seem to work for me.

On the map attached, the first beacon is just remove, place. The second is remove, place vespene, removed vespene, place. The third is remove, place minerals, removed minerals, place.

I can't really use the vespene geyser idea you guys had because a geyser's 2x4.. or 4x2, I'm not sure which goes in front of the the other. I just ended up replacing the zerg building with another terran one. :><:

I think it would be 4x2. I remember you have to walk before you jump, width and then height.

If you can get it to work a mineral field is 3x2.

Increase the millisecond interval when creating the buildings... you are acting as if it would be instiant, hence my suggestion of an observer and all that "10 seconds to trigger" is the reason why its not working -_-

Why not just remove and then wait for the creep to go away and place the new building then? It would be faster and easier.

Creating resources is the best way to remove it, you just have to get it right.

I guess I don't have it right. Make sure you have it on fastest, all three work. The second two are just... the same as the first. Play to understand, I suck at explaining.

Also, what buildings did you plan on using? I can plug those in.

NudeRaider shouted: Oh_Man Artosis hasn't caught on how devastating the perfect focus fire is. With the mutas he was like "the Mutas always seem to have less hp than against a human". But he didn't notice that the flock he had selected always just had one muta that was hurt. Same with the wraiths here. He's talking about how valks+wraith is gonna destroy Pluto's valks, then 5s later he's dumbfounded the human player's air is just gone and he never figured out why. And for some reason didn't even think to go back and look at the battle.
yeh thts straight up cheating
