Reaver pathing fix
« on: December 03, 2023, 05:25:05 pm »
I think it is pretty well known that reavers do not work when trying to push into someone's base.  If you build in a certain way, a reaver cannot shoot something that is clearly in front of them.  I am making this poll to get an idea if anyone else agrees or thinks it's a balance against PvZ or PvT.  I have seen on some videos where pathing can be done incorrectly causing reavers to not be able to shoot.  I think it can be fixed but I am not entirely sure.

Either way, good luck have fun!

I know how to fix it, in fact I already have a map without the reavver bug in the chokes of each base, mainly 3 and 9. I don't put it in because it requires modifying a lot of high ground in visible places.

If you look at the Korean map there is also that bug 3 and 9 in the chokes. It is inevitable without modifying the terrain.

It’s in mid base left and right. You gotta change up your style

It also happens when a corner tries to push a block. From 7 let’s say. If cannons are placed right, they won’t shoot.

It can't be fixed. it is part of the pathing system starcraft is coded on. If you fix it in 1 pathing zone, the problem will be in another pathing zone.

I was just 9 o clock zerg vs protoss and used it.  He couldn't push into my base no matter how hard he tried.  Seemed unfair.
