Title: Sa-Matra questions
Post by: Sentosa S on June 05, 2003, 11:19:25 pm
Who created this battle platform?

How big is the Sa-Matra compared to the precursor service vehicle?

If one was able to make such ship, why only one?

All of these questions are answered in the game! :)

Talk to the Melnorme about history and current events.

the precursors created the platform, and i have no idea why.. there are many theories tho.. like they were in a war and stuff
the chmmr say that the sa-matra is many times larger than the vindicator u can see it in the end of pc sc2. there maybe a few answers to that in sc3, but since i didn't wanna play it, i can't really tell

There are no answers to these questions in SC3. To the limited extent to which SC3 answers any questions, these answers do not tell one what motivated the construction of the Sa-Matra (inasmuch as the threat was not a physical one).

I think.

In sc2/content/lastbat, the lastbat.*.0.png is the main image, and the other numbers are the supporting images.

The green bouncers are there; senmed.*.png, but the fireballs are missing.
The big pictures are tranparencies, so I think they just stretch the medium picutres to fit the size of the big ones (but I'm just guessing, haven't looked at the code).
