Software-update: Starcraft 1.16

Op 31 maart 1998 kwam Blizzard Entertainment met het briljante real-time startegy spel Starcraft op de markt. Nu, ruim tien jaar later, wordt het spel nog steeds gespeeld en is het met name in het verre Oosten mateloos populair. Nog opmerkelijker is dat Blizzard nog steeds ondersteuning biedt voor dit spel en de add-on Broodwars. Enkele dagen geleden is er met versienummer 1.16 een nieuwe patch verschenen en deze kent de volgende veranderingen en verbeteringen:

Feature Changes

• In-game chat is now saved in replays. Note: whispers are not saved.
• Hitting the Escape key while in the chat room will clear your typed text.
• "/reply" (or just "/r") will send a whisper to person who most recently whispered you.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed localization issues with "from" and "to" in whispers.
• Starcraft now only uses as much CPU as it needs to run smoothly.

Exploits

• Fixed an exploit which allowed Zerg players to gain minerals through mutations.
• Fixed an exploit which allowed Zerg players to recycle an upgrading building.
• Fixed an exploit which allowed Zerg players to extend their creep with a drone.
• Fixed an exploit which allowed Zerg players to move Drones over impassable terrain.
• Fixed an exploit which allowed Terran players to drop a nuke anywhere on the map.
• Fixed an exploit which allowed players to pause the game while in the pre-game lobby.
