    Sure.

    In my testmap, in theory, all labels would be stacked all the time with slightly different center positions. But the vertical position can be altered via the used font.

    For example, the numbers on the bars in my map "Temple Siege 2" on bnet are the original labels and therefore always updated instantly:

    (screenshot is outdated, btw)

    If you select a unit without shields, the label starts more downwards as I placed the unit's wireframe accordingly and made it invisible. So, in the picture, the top label disappears.

    Hah, thank you! No clue what I did wrong. Think I was hung up on using "Label" or "InfoPane" instead of "Frame".

    Thanks a lot, really.

    - position where the labels start, if the unit has shields, by moving the shield label around

    Could you post an example of this? I've played with it for hours with little success. I can't seem to do anything involving unitinfo labels.

    Heya,

    Does anyone have the SC2Layout file for fixing this (red box), to make shield/life/energy values over 10,000 not take up 2 lines?

    Or happen to know the frame names?

    Thanks!

    Get the bare skeleton done, then release it.

    Players find problems, exploits and most importantly; fundamental gameplay fuck-ups much more efficiently than you can.

    The earlier you catch these things, the easier they are to solve.

    Furthermore I believe that releasing mini-patches is easier on you as a developer. It's nice to have a bare-bones map and just add to it in small bursts over time, than trying to shotgun the whole thing at once.

    Lastly, if the core concept sucks, you can quickly realise this and avoid wasting your time.

    I assure you that my opposition to homosexuality is equivalent to that of premarital sex and masturbation: completely void of personal bias, and borne only of an unflinching fealty to God's law.

    "Do not lie with a man as one lies with a woman; that is detestable." Leviticus 18:22

    This is your reason for hating homosexuality?

    Do you know what else Leviticus says?

    "Do not cut the hair at the sides of your head or clip off the edges of your beard." Leviticus 19:27

    "But all creatures in the seas or streams that do not have fins and scales [eg lobsters]; whether among all the swarming things or among all the other living creatures in the water; you are to detest." Leviticus 11:10

    "And the pig, though it has a split hoof completely divided, does not chew the cud; it is unclean for you." Leviticus 11:7

    "Do not wear clothing woven of two kinds of material. [cotton/polyester blends, check your clothing]" Leviticus 19:19

    "When a woman has her regular flow of blood, the impurity of her monthly period will last seven days, and anyone who touches her will be unclean till evening. Anything she lies on during her period will be unclean, and anything she sits on will be unclean." Leviticus 15:19-20

    I hope you don't eat lobster, pork, make contact with a woman on her period (check before shaking her hand), wear polyester/cotton blend clothing or shave.

    All from Leviticus.

    I can't wait to see what mental gymnastics you undertake to dodge this.

    If there's going to be a debate thread/threads, it should have more structure.

    Ask ONE question.

    -or-

    Make ONE reply.

    Last thread ended with giant posts that took hours to work through, often containing so much misinformation that it became a chore to correct it all.

    "You're only an atheist so you can sin!"

    Yeah and you're only a Christian so you don't need to go to Mecca.

    The presence of a disembodied intelligence has been duly verified, thank you very much. You're so naive to think that such a being wouldn't see right through your experimentation that I wouldn't expect you to understand.

    Just stumbled across this gem while hitting a random page.

    If TheZizz is still around, care to point out what this might be?

    Hey you piece of shit.... Don't presume to tell me that the most negative points are the core values. I'm talking about what a childhood of being raised a christian is like in this day and age.

    If I met you in real life and you told me as much, I would kick the shit outta you.

    Didn't you get humiliated enough last time you pretended to be a tough guy on the internet?

    If you're too fragile to have your opinions challenged, you shouldn't be on the internet. Go away.

    God created the heavens and the earth. He created it specifically for life. He created the animals, the birds, and all living creatures. He endowed them with intelligence. Just like AI cannot write itself magically in a compiler, neither can any form of intelligent sentience poof into existence. Maybe in wonderland, but even there, I dont know.

    Thats the truth of the matter. You can go looking as to how it was done, and why things work the way they do, etc. Thats all nice and dandy, but the science all comes from God.

    Thats just how it is. One should not consider running off and joining the circus with their jokes on multiverse, parallel universe, eternalverse, eternal time, laws of physics creating themselves etc. Its funny the first time around, but y`know. I used to be on that end of the stick, but thank God for knowledge(Really guys, really).

    "God did it. Don't ask questions."

    Quote from EternalWraith: Go

    Honestly. Honestly. Honestly, and not to attack you in anyway but I think you dont understand evolution. Atleast not on a deep and intricate level. See, this is kinda like blind faith. My bad for not dropping the hammer on it(yet).
    You think humanity has been around for 200k years. I dont even know what to say to that lol.:/

    100k to 250k.

    I understand evolution because I had a university professor teach me rather than my local priest.

    You don't know what to say to it because science trumps the bible.

    Evolution is a theory and nothing more, and one that is looked upon less and less as time goes on. According to evolution, we are just a few million years from being a coconut.

    You don't understand evolution.

    If someone walked up to you and stated "According to Christianity, we're just a few decades away from being muslims", you'd laugh at them.

    I'm laughing at you.
