## What does randomization do to this game?
|
|
|
|
The following unlocks are randomized as items:
|
|
1. Your ability to build any non-worker unit.
|
|
2. Unit specific upgrades including some combinations not available in the vanilla campaigns, such as both strain choices simultaneously for Zerg and every Spear of Adun upgrade simultaneously for Protoss!
|
|
3. Your ability to get the generic unit upgrades, such as attack and armour upgrades.
|
|
4. Other miscellaneous upgrades such as laboratory upgrades and mercenaries for Terran, Kerrigan levels and upgrades for Zerg, and Spear of Adun upgrades for Protoss.
|
|
5. Small boosts to your starting mineral, vespene gas, and supply totals on each mission.
|
|
|
|
You find items by making progress in these categories:
|
|
* Completing missions
|
|
* Completing bonus objectives (like by gathering lab research material in Wings of Liberty)
|
|
* Reaching milestones in the mission, such as completing part of a main objective
|
|
* Completing challenges based on achievements in the base game, such as clearing all Zerg on Devil's Playground
|
|
|
|
Except for mission completion, these categories can be disabled in the game's settings. For instance, you can disable getting items for reaching required milestones.
|
|
|
|
When you receive items, they will immediately become available, even during a mission, and you will be
|
|
notified via a text box in the top-right corner of the game screen. Item unlocks are also logged in the Archipelago client.
|
|
|
|
Missions are launched through the Starcraft 2 Archipelago client, through the Starcraft 2 Launcher tab. The between mission segments on the Hyperion, the Leviathan, and the Spear of Adun are not included. Additionally, metaprogression currencies such as credits and Solarite are not used.
|
|
|
|
## What is the goal of this game when randomized?
|
|
|
|
The goal is to beat the final mission in the mission order. The yaml configuration file controls the mission order and how missions are shuffled.
|
|
|
|
## What non-randomized changes are there from vanilla Starcraft 2?
|
|
|
|
1. Some missions have more vespene geysers available to allow a wider variety of units.
|
|
2. Many new units and upgrades have been added as items, coming from co-op, melee, later campaigns, later expansions, brood war, and original ideas.
|
|
3. Higher-tech production structures, including Factories, Starports, Robotics Facilities, and Stargates, no longer have tech requirements.
|
|
4. Zerg missions have been adjusted to give the player a starting Lair where they would only have Hatcheries.
|
|
5. Upgrades with a downside have had the downside removed, such as automated refineries costing more or tech reactors taking longer to build.
|
|
6. Unit collision within the vents in Enemy Within has been adjusted to allow larger units to travel through them without getting stuck in odd places.
|
|
7. Several vanilla bugs have been fixed.
|
|
|
|
## Which of my items can be in another player's world?
|
|
|
|
By default, any of StarCraft 2's items (specified above) can be in another player's world. See the
|
|
[Advanced YAML Guide](/tutorial/Archipelago/advanced_settings/en)
|
|
for more information on how to change this.
