Count in UpdateCompleteEvent

[EHadoux]

Hi,

sorry to bother you with all my questions (it won't be the last unfortunately). What is the purpose of the field countin UpdateCompleteEvent? Moreover, some names are awkward like PunisherGrenades -> ConcusiveShells instead?

Thank you very much,

Emmanuel

I believe that count is the number of times the upgrade has been researched by that player.

The names are weird because they are the ability names that Blizzard uses internally. PunisherGrenades was probably the working name in development and they just never saw fit to change the internal name references.

One day I might introduce an ability name map so that people have more familiar names to work with. I'm leaving this issue open because I've realized that the tracker events documentation isn't generating correctly.

You mean that if I launch +1 Melee, cancel, relaunch, wait for completion and check for count it should be 2? I could figure it out myself but I cannot launch SC2 atm.

I began to do that in the UpgradeTracker plugin I will soon put on pull request but I had hard time to select names. I mean, for instance for the Metabolic Boost, some people will call it ZerglingSpeed, others Speedlings, etc.

[GraylinKim]

You can design an upgrade to have multiple levels in the Galaxy Editor. If you do, I believe that count will be the number of times the upgrade has been completed. I believe that SC2 uses a chain of single level upgrades instead of one 3 level upgrade. Not 100% sure that count works the way described above tough so please look into it and let me know what you find.

As far as name mappings, the only mapping I'd accept a pull for right now would use the enUS in game names. Mapping one informal name to another isn't that useful imo.

I dived into it and it's a complete mess. For instance we have: ResearchCombatShield when launched and ShieldWall when completed, ResearchConcussiveShells when launched and PunisherGrenades when completed, etc, but some are coherent like ResearchCharge and Charge.

[GraylinKim]

Yes, you should assume that there is no correlation between the name of the upgrade and the name of the command that researches it. Two separate maps would be needed to make them predictable and sane.

I saw you have the pull request to simplify some of the changes in naming over time. If it helps to get it human-readable, however, here's the mapping I use in Spawning Tool:

I'm glad to see I converged towards this in 128a685f61d36d5c704fb2bb54487c019798efa4 :)

[EHadoux]

It seems that you lack some names (like Yamato upgrade), see 6842239ca38df201ff70e15608c771aeb95894f2 and previous.

[StoicLoofah]

Ah, thanks for the tip there. I'm now extra-glad that I posted the list. I'll be sure to include those!
