Not sure if the guy who made Nexus Wars is on this site but his glitch/exploit is becoming well known and he should get rid of it. And I am positive it was done this way on purpose so he could win any game he played. And because of this I am going to do all in my power to make sure everyone knows of this exploit so that others cannot be on the losing end of this trick.

So, THE EXPLOIT

While playing Nexus Wars whenever you build any building, you can cancel the building progress to get your full minerals spent on it back and also you will still receive the added bonus of income that the building you built should have given. But you may only do this one time per building. So example time.

You build a pylon which does nothing but give a 16+ to your income for the price of 200 minerals. Before the building is complete you cancel it by hitting esc or clicking the designated button for the building. What happens is you will not get the building but you will retain the income it gave you.

HOW THIS CAN BE FIXED

All that is needed is a very simple trigger change. Change each trigger that identify building progress and instead of it recognizing it being started in the condition, set it to is completed. Ding, that's fixed and exploit is gone.

huh? actually this map is based off castle fight in WC3.

In addition to fixing the glitch, I think he should add more spellcasters into the game, and allow players to build stealth/detector units. It will add some strategy to the game.

All I am saying is 90 percent of the maps are starcraft maps, that's why you still need to bring units to beacons etc... which you don't need to do in sc2 anymore. )
I have not yet played Nexus Wars, but I remember a SC1 map that was called this and it was the same as castle fight in wc3.
( So I am pretty sure Castle Fight, was based on Nexus wars )

Ultraviolet -- Yeah, I suppose there's something to that

Oh_Man -- whereas just "press X to get 50 health back" is pretty mindless
[2024-5-06. : 5:02 am]
Oh_Man -- because it adds anotherr level of player decision-making where u dont wanna walk too far away from the medic or u lose healing value
[2024-5-06. : 5:01 am]
Oh_Man -- initially I thought it was weird why is he still using the basic pre-EUD medic healing system, but it's actually genius

Ultraviolet -- Vrael
Vrael shouted: I almost had a heart attack just thinking about calculating all the offsets it would take to do that kind of stuff
With the modern EUD editors, I don't think they're calculating nearly as many offsets as you might imagine. Still some fancy ass work that I'm sure took a ton of effort
[2024-5-06. : 12:51 am]
Oh_Man -- definitely EUD

Vrael -- that is insane
[2024-5-05. : 9:35 pm]
Vrael -- damn is that all EUD effects?
