No score in ranked game

Postby Flynn » 24 Mar 2013, 20:37

Just played a weird ranked game, 1. it was on salt rock colony, a map we haven't had in a long time and 2. there was no score showing with the player names. Any ideas?

Season 2 of ranked has ended and Season 3 has begun.

Along with it we have new maps in ranked poll and also patch 3622 (which includes many improvements and balance fixes one of which is no score in ranked games).

I don't get how the seasons work. But I am still in the scout/calcicrete league after 500+ games :| About the no score thing, how is it an improvement? How are we to determine the level of skill of our opponent? Or how our economies/build orders compare? And lastly, where can I get more information on the changes in the latest patch? Thanks.

You are talking of several things here.

Score are disabled, it's normal. You shouldn't rely on score to determine what your enemy is doing.
They will be displayed in the replay.

Rating (between []) are displayed as usual.

Your league is determined by your 1v1 rating. You are not in a league for season 3, you should relog.

the score window is a bit too small to show the additional data points in the replay.
its been a while, but i used these lines back in the day for a mod (they stretch out the window borders):

controls.armyGroup.Width:Set(controls.armyLines[1].Width)
controls.bgTop.Width:Set(controls.armyGroup.Width)
controls.bgBottom.Width:Set(controls.armyGroup.Width)
controls.bgStretch.Width:Set(controls.armyGroup.Width)


also i am used to hotstats printing a black background, because the contrast is better. any chance i can change that again?

The score didn't used to be disabled before :| Now it just says "playing" where the score used to be. And please can you link me to a changelog?

You should remove your mod, the window is wider by default and display everything correctly :

It was my intention to disable it for ranked for a long time, but it was possible to re-enable it with some UI mod. Now it's not possible, so it's done.

Okay but what is the gameplay reason for disabling the score? Also why am I not in a league?
