I made a Test map and proved that Chrono Boost = Stim when applied to units. now I ask myself since Canons are structures can players chrono boost canons to "stim" them?

Hmmm... if you bothered making a map to compare CB and stim... why not test CB on a canon while you're at it?^^
Sorry I can't be of more help, but that would be pretty interesting if it works (only for vsAI games... but still it could be cool).
Wait, how did you prove that CB = Stim? The ability only works on buildings (and only buildings that have tech/units)...Quote:

I changed the target validators or w/e they were called so it can target units too it will make them move 50% faster and attack 50% fasterQuote:

During the beta you could, and it was horribly imbalanced. Not sad at all.
Imba? Cannons cannot move, so you can move back, and it would be a lot of wasted CBs, which are single-target and share an energy pool. Stimpacks on the other hand, can be activated for all units, costs HP that can be healed, and it also makes the unit faster, so it's actually much harder to run from them.Quote:

At first I was like, how had no-one yet discovered you could chrono boost units? Was there a trick?
Then you were like, I changed the validators in the editor so I could
Then I was like facepalm.jpg
I wish you could use chrono boost on allies structures. Been a few times when a protoss leaves/drops in ladder team games and their chrono boost gets unused.
Can you imagine? Mules and scvs twice as fast?! Even faster reapers. Faster banshees. Your nightmares just became real
Well.... for one thing the colossi won't work, if u try to recode the attack speed the beam scan will take atleast about .8 second to finish, even if u code the attack speed to 0.01 (lowest value) so colossi due to the beam scan will not nearly be effective with chrono boost due to their "haste cap" (lol WoW vocab kicking in (ex-WoW player))Quote:

Wouldn't mind if CB made buildings warp in more quickly - Have never stopped to check, does it speed up the cooldown of a Warpgate?
Yes it does.Quote:
