viewing partner's resources

i just played a 2v2 game where i was random, but lucky enough to end up as terran. my partner was terran and dropped from the game at the start. i was about to surrender when i figured eff it ill give it a shot. long story short i ended up winning but only because my opponents were terribad. anyways, the one thing i wish the game had was a way to view your partner's resources when he drops and you're given control. otherwise you're just guessing if you can build something. is there a reason why this can't be implemented?

Re: viewing partner's resources

I actually think when you have FULL control of a player (when they dc) you guys share resources. I remember being able to build something that requires more minerals than i have when my friend DCed.

 

Still, it would be nice to be able to see your team's resources ANY time.

Re: viewing partner's resources

It should automatically combine your resources into one pool.

My arena team WAS simpler than 2346 =P

Re: viewing partner's resources

i watched the replay, and uno's right, i was able to spend my partner's resources; didn't even realize it. still couldn't see how much he had though, the status indicators were for my resources only.

Re: viewing partner's resources

it doesn't work the other way around though, i've been blocked from making units from the other base's buildings when i've had plenty of my own resources.

Re: viewing partner's resources

One time my protoss partner quit before he placed his first pylon and I wasn't able to place anymore buildings for him.
