     @Leaflord Part of it is the formation stuff, which IMO is worth just turning off entirely. It shafts me so often.

     @Leaflord You do get access to those pissy towers in the first age. I've never really seen the value, because you shouldn't be defending in first age, you should tech out and build big towers straight up instead. Or just not get rushed at all because you have 24/7 harassment. (The pissy towers can be upgraded into the big towers but the total cost is more.)

     @Leaflord @Rance @anonymous It's kinda self-explanatory. There are probably some parts that could use a touch-up; basically whenever someone asks me "how do you do X bit" I go fix the text to be clearer.
     I think reporting results of actions doesn't work still, I should check that.

     @anonymous @Rance @Leaflord Ent Gaming were running host bots for ages, and since they were intimately familiar with how bnet worked, from the client-side, it wasn't that much more effort to reimplement the server themselves, so they did.
     I have the map file, but you can't host with wc3connect as far as I can tell; it has the option for it but it has some bug that drops people from the lobby constantly every 15s or so, and I have no idea why.

     @anonymous @Rance @Leaflord hamachi was win-only, wasn't it?
     We were using zt1 for a bit but it required an extra layer on top to fix incoming game notices so that wc3 would actually pick them up, some evil bit-level packet manipulation.
     Also it only worked up to 1.29, I couldn't figure out how to wrangle it for 1.30, which is important because the last version of swat:am has a bug that basically destroys medic.

     @Zerglingman @Leaflord @Rance I realized that like halfway through. But again IDK when I will get around to playing it myself, let alone others. Would be nice to have the map for later so I don’t have to. Would also solve bandwidth issues.

     Since it’s a community version I am guessing it’s hosted on a forum somewhere? I looked on ent’s site but didn’t see it in the game tab. Maybe I missed it?
