New Patch?

06-23-2006, 11:12 PM

Did anyone else get a new patch downloaded, I think thursday? I just got disconnected, and then downloaded it when i tried to connect again.

Also, i was wondering.
Before the patch, wouldn't the following Not work?

Trigger:

Unit Creation

Events

Time - Elapsed game time is 3.00 seconds

Conditions

Actions

Unit - Create 1 Footman for Player 1 (Red) at (Center of Region 000 <gen>) facing Default building facing degrees

Unit Movement

Events

Unit - A unit enters Region 000 <gen>

Conditions

Actions

Unit - Order (Triggering unit) to Move To (Center of Region 001 <gen>)

It didn't count as "Entering A Region" if they were created there, right? This happened on one of my maps at least, so I had to do something different. Anyway, now you can do this, or I can? Maybe it is just me, I hope this doesn't make me look like an idiot lol.

The)TideHunter(	Yes, their is a new patch. Its another 1 of Blizz's coverups for dissconnects, hopefully his 1 will work. The changlog explains everything they have changed, read that. Both of your triggers have worked last patch and the new patch.

yuripro84	Ya, i know they both worked, but didn't they bug up when together? Because on one of my maps, i told units to be created in one region. Then i said, when they appear in that region, they need to move. Seems to work now though? Maybe i miscoded before or something?

The)TideHunter(	Hmm, as far as i can see, after 3 seconds the unit will be created then moved instantly to Region 003 <gen>. Im sure its always been like this. TD's and Maul's ect use this. They create a unit, then have another trigger that when the unit enters the region they are being created in, it orders them to move.

The new patch had nothing to do with disconnects:

Pheonix-IV	The new patch is mostly about anti-hack stuff, Blizz have poured a ton of passive anti-hack stuff into the game, hence the stuff going on about 'Exploits'.

It was posted on Blizzard forums that certain exploits, not intentially hacks, caused dissconnects at random times to random people.
They said the new patch was to stop this happening
