*Reworked nearly every system in the game to improve efficiency and reduce lag.

*All turrets are constructed by first building the foundation called a turret base. After that is built, it can be upgraded to any turret type. This foundation effectively raises all turrets off the ground.

Maddeem I think I have a pretty good idea. Tesla coil groups. Now it´s pretty hard to succesfuly defend a a smaller base from more than 2 sides because tesla coils are slow and they are all connected making only one coil actually functional. With coil groups players would be forced to control the connection between the turrets to share the power better.

After playing more of the SC2 version. Here are some important notes for the next patch:

Default changes:

- Fix mineral spawn (closer together, you said 1000yrds, rather than 1500yrds which is what its currently on)
- Fix the final wave freeze glitch
- add more time in first day
- worker tracker
- re-add audio in the intro script
- add the selection circle for the range
-add mineral count on a multiboard
- make trading minerals on a tab button

Additional buildings/changes:

- Make a casino (you can input any amount of minerals of any colour, and there is a 50% chance you will double or lose)
- Get rid of all the factories, and just use a "empty factory" so you can just put it on any mineral and it essentially turns into that colour factory. (saves you 4 building slots!!!)
- Buff tower, buildings nearby gain a buff


Skins:

- Make the towers actually look like towers, use a human scout tower, those look the best.
- Also make the tier 2 and 3 of the upgrade center look better, tier 2 use a shop and tier 3 use a castle (human race)


Worker:

-Also if u can, make a rock jump ability. you can hope 1 rock, but the cooldown is long.

With these in mind, I seriously think the next patch would be soo much better than the sc2 version.

also 1 more thing, this is a must. Please make it so only host can choose the difficulty. you have no idea how many times my friends and I will have to rehost because some1 screws everything up by choosing easy, or hell, when we all want hard or something.

Just out of curiosity, will you add the building suggestions?

is the temple made of rocks or is it indestructible?
Also hope you made it so only host can choose a difficulty. That gets so annoying online.
Also cant wait to see the new towers!!!

Is it even possible to complete the difficulties after Hard Mode?

I have just completed hard, but anything above it is insane!

Yes. The other guy that I was playing with had the same problem. I typed it correctly and it worked once. It worked once but it didn't work when I used it in bnet.

Are you sure you had the same account name? Because code is bound to account name.. I've played MineralZ on other programs too, and never had a problem.

I see. The code was when I played mineralz on LAN. And my b net name and LAN name is different. Maybe that's the problem? And yeah, how is the code not useable if the name is different?

Because then you can use the codes of other people..
And that would take away the point of a personal code :(
