for the units\buildings, how do you change the size of it...
like the green circle around the unit\building?



None.

I believe the selection circle is controlled in the unit's sprite entry. The green selection circle has nothing to do with the unit's actual size.



None.

As I said, look at your building's sprite entry, where you can adjust selection circle size, health bar size, and health bar placement. I meant that changing the unit's size does not automatically change selection circle. To get to sprite entry, go to your unit's graphics tab and click the arrow next to the graphics selection. You should now be in flingy. Click the arrow on this screen to get to sprites.

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 Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it.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

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:
