i don't know but when this weapon fires it just appear in a split second not finishing its animation and worst is it doesn't make any damage to a unit.

(*) i don't know why this part is displaced, its not suppose to be like that in the first place

btw sometimes ive seen a playfram with x00 (something like that), what does this x00 mean?

now ive managed to make another version. ive copy the iscript of ATS/ATA battery with a death animation of stasis field. aside from the slow animation of the laser (which i don't know why) it quite works. now my problem is that is still doesn't make any damage...

Good job. I havn't really looked at the problem, but you probably should have posted the answer to your problem so others with the same problem can fix it and other people can learn from it.

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 Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it.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

[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 :lol:

Oh_Man -- makes me wonder if SEN knows anything about the topic

Oh_Man -- artosis dropped pretty interesting vid: https://youtu.be/EqZHB8Blra4
