huh.. there is no need to stack.. Place minerals and than Set the amount... No need to stack. Like in fastest its i think 1 with 50,000 mines inside. If not than i'm stupid.

Well Snipe I guess you are stupid then. lol kiddin closedeyes.gif

On fastest there are always alot of scvs mining with what it looks like the same pile of resources, but there are 50 piles there, with 50,000 minerals in it. He wanted to know how to get all of them scvs there to do that instead of just one of them. biggrin.gif

Thats why you would have to stack them on top of each other, just by clicking on the same spot alot. biggrin.gif

I remember someone saying thats what not to do. The clean and fast way is to use Starforge, and create 1 mineral field. Right click it, and click the button in the dialog box that says "Stack." Input the number of minerals you want to stack, and Ta da!!!

Oh I didn't know that you could do it that way. But the way that I said is the way I used and that's why I said it. biggrin.gif The way you said is more efficient and saves on the unit placing.

For SCMdraft you click the things to stack it. You can see how many were stacked there by highliting and counting them. With starfroge, type in the ammount you want to stack.

also on liek the fastest maps only 1 scv will mine at first, then the rest will start mining the other stacked minerals

You can see that happening in normal melee games too:
If you get your original four workers to mine on the same mineral patch, at first only one of them will start mining, and then the others will find other mineral patches to mine a short while later.
