I thought this Goliath glitching on a tree was funny. Has anyone else ever seen this before? This little guy's AI messed up in a game of War of the Lost Kingdoms. I was looking around for idle units and I came across him stuck on a tree, so I alt tabbed, opened HyperCam 2, and took this video.
I do stuff and thingies... Try widening and reducing the number of small nooks and crannies to correct the problem.
I only had more than 50 units on the same tree with stacking caused by 1 unburrowing unit... (but I had a trigger which ordered them there because I had a bug in my triggers). or Hydras refusing to take orders because they are stuck in their attack animation... but I think that was patched...
Master has given Dobby a doctorate! Dobby is free!

Partially...computer hydras won't always follow/retreat if you run, but it's so uncommon I don't really know what causes it. Also, random units will...freeze, or something, and refuse to move if ordered forward. This usually happens when looking left/right, and ordered in the same direction it's looking. Again, this isn't too common either, it just happens when there's a huge amount of units, IIRC.
Let's face it--SC AI sucks. Especially pathfinding.

Haha, funny, that exact thing happened as well with that marine, after it slid it started attacking me, but wouldn't follow if I walked away, it'd just sit there pointing its gun in my direction
r u sure it wasnt trying to heal it.. ive seen a siege tank actually lift off the ground and fly to the other side of the map. it happens when you try to repair it with a specific amount of minerals, the scv explodes too. i wish i saved that rep

it's rather inconvenient actually, as it requires you to transfer it to Custom Score which might even interfere with what you're measuring. But IIRC you can also use EUDs to display it which by now could actually be somewhat convenient.

Symmetry -- I just pasted what google ai told me to try to form a feedback loop
UndeadStar shouted: https://staredit.net/topic/18961/ <= wow, if there wasn't a capital letter on almost every word in the title, and a link in the signature, I may not have guesses it's an AI bot. I don't know much about map editing, but the content may even be relevant enough to be kept.
Yeah, I've noticed it, but it raised a couple of relevant questions and kept the ad to the signature so if someone were to engage with the topic it could be a net positive which is why I kept it. We're not necessarily anti-bot, just anti-spam. Thanks to Symmetry who realized my hope.
