Title: buiding cheat
Post by: junglebeaver on 19 October 2006, 03:35:20

Here's a really usefull bug! If you build a unit in a building and click on it's build button a lot, it will go faster!
 Try this:
     Build initiate/worker
     Click on the build button (adding more to the queue) really fast.
The unit the builing is working on will be built faster! Works if you click on the cancel button too.

Nah it doesn't build faster. What happens is the percentage bar updates every second. So lets say a worker gets 8% per second. The building will update the percentage if you click on build a new unit or cancel a previous unit. So all you do is update the percentage bar, so it appears quicker. For example, lets say a unit builds at 10% per second. If you click a build function 5 times a second, then you'll see 2%, 4%, 6,%, 8%, 10% in that second. All it does is update the percentage bar everytime you click, the building time really takes the same amount of time, so don't bother wasting your strength clicking :P

Ohhh... i understand, sorry for being stupid! So, pressing the build button actually just "refreshes" the progress bar, I get it. Thanks for explaining that!

Heh no problem, at first when I saw it I thought it might, but aftering messing around with it for a bit, I noticed it just refreshed it. I didn't want you to get finger cramps pressing the build button so muchc :P

I guess that if you want to build faster you have to use the "repair" function... does it really work :?:  ?
