Saving Both Civilians And Troops in Ground Zero

[@Ghostbellrei]

And for the talking civilian... Since he can talk, I think he definitely survived without my help.

So is this map 'ask and you shall receive'?

@@Ghostbellrei I thought I saw comments on another of your videos asking for this one.

[@Ghostbellrei]

@@joshuahudson2170 I accidently discovered a glitch to make this possible.

[@Kirmakoff]

You even evacuated them via dropship. So wholesome! Truly no one is left behind under Ghost bell command.

[@Ghostbellrei]

That's what I called Sloppy.

"and then this commander Ghost Bell saved our butts and everyone else's by placing spider mines in seemingly random spots, it was crazy!" -one of the civs you saved in the future

Player: Start with Battle cruser, good handful of Marines and fire bats, Goliats and more Mengs: This is no fair man!

[@luckylarry71]

I'm APPALLED that Blizzard did not set the automatic victory trigger condition after all those civies were hauled in a freaking DROPSHIP to a high ground _safety zone_ >:(

[@luckylarry71]

Bless your kind and gentle soul! This video is due 24 years ;,-))) Loved the double SCV + marine body block on the north-east enterance, haven't seen this approach applied to the generic spidermine cheese unitl now.

It is interesting that Blizzard apparently designed this mission with the anticipation that you *could* figure out a way to save all these reinforcements from getting nuked AND eventually keep them. One would have thought that they had designed it so that these reinforcement units would NOT revert to your control even if they had stayed alive, simply because Blizz had no expectation whatsoever that a way to prevent the nukes existed.

[@pere_kato]

...then the civilians were evacuated and lived happily ever after. Happy end!

[@mikael7084]

Job well done, Commander!

[@ecclesiasticman4417]

He's saving them all now!

[@xxkrakenxx7849]

Glad to see that you saved all of them!

Just a reminder that The Vulture is 75 Minerals

[@Norand-uq4nz]

Wow. Never thought that it is possible 😵‍💫

[@earthlord7606]

How does the civilian part work? It looks like you delayed the trigger that spawns them so they spawn after the nukes go off, but how?

[@kurzackd]

I think I have an idea... Let me check real quick in the game and I'll come back to you...

[@kurzackd]

ok I did some experimenting and COULD NOT figure it out, but at least I have a theory: You can see that throughout the entire duration of the first sequence of nukes, he "holds" his screen locked in onto the factory. Somehow, he prevents the trigger where the *"camera view"* switches to the supply depots, where it is aimed that the deaths of the buildings and civillians are shown. He then *MANUALLY* changes his view to the last batch of supply depots, but only **AFTER** the nuke has already landed and killed them... ...and THEN the civillians spawn. So, my theory is this: He somehow "blocks" the trigger which forces the camera view change to happen when it is supposed to happen. This "bugs" the game in a way which also delays the trigger that spawns the civillians.

[@Ghostbellrei]

@@kurzackd yeah that's how it works

[@kurzackd]

@@Ghostbellrei man I'm so amazing! :D

[@mistressofthenekos1743]

@@kurzackd The fact you managed to figure all that out is honestly very praiseworthy

[@NoxorionZ]

With that army, you need nothing more... You can just kill Mengsk, he won't be able to scape this time...

[@bsherman8236]

So wholesome

[@dennisrodriguez3689]

It took me about 30 minutes to learn how to do this and then I used those units to raid Mengsk CC and gg.

[@藤原蛋紅]

WTF YOU REALLY DID IT?!

How to save them civvies?

[@adamhrin9866]

[@stephenfritz7493]

Now if only 10 year old me could have done that 😅

[@omar21710]
