Earth Tower Pathing map (v1.1)

[Ranakastrasz]

The second Level of earth tower, Amplified Earth tower, I believe it is called, Has the incorrect pathing map, taking up 8 spaces in the shape of a cross, rather than 4. It is possible that other towers have this bug.

Not sure what you mean. I was able to build around Amplified Earth Tower like any other. Can you take a screenshot?

[Ranakastrasz]

It still exists in the latest version, and I think it has an odd shape, because if you try to place it slightly above or below directly adjacent, it allows you to place it.

???

Edit: Tried with Amplified Earth too, same result.

[Ranakastrasz]

That is odd, I wonder why that occurs. I have similar problems on other maps, I wonder if it is a engine bug.

Try using the Sc2 repair tool and see if that helps.

I can't find the post about the upgraded earth tower taking up 8 spaces instead of 4 but I just had it happen to me. It actually moved another tower to a random spot when I upgraded it. It's the first upgrade - level 1 4 spaces, level 2 8 spaces, level 3 goes back to 4 spaces. If the tower is walled in on all sides when upgraded it will move one of the towers around it to make room.

Now that, is interesting.

This is a duplicate/similar to my post in the obsolete forums, could they be merged please?

I can confirm this - I had a setup of earth towers like this

ooo

ooo

and after upgrading they were

oooo

Can someone do a replay showing this? I've built in every which way, including as outlined above, and can't get strange behavior. It all looks kosher in the editor too.

[ajkole]

I'll show you where they were -- its the left hand wall spot just after spawn.

2 screenshots taken back to back

I noticed the bottom right tower moved.

Then the bottom left tower moves to the top right when upgraded

But what is strange is the top 3 had no issues, so it seems to be amplified bumping against amplified above them causing the problem

[Karawasa]

So strange, I can't seem to reproduce this. I tried building in the exact location you did but got nothing.
