What units and structures in Starcraft can be repaired? Can allied units from other races be repaired?

Could you extend that question to structures like Protoss and Zerg buildings.– ayckosterCommented Jul 24, 2012 at 17:09

Could you also extend the scope of the question to cover neutral buildings?– Atav32Commented Jul 25, 2012 at 5:55

1Actually, do you mind if I change the question to "What can SCV's repair?" Then include in the details a number of questions about ambiguous rules like allied mechanical Toss units, Toss buildings, and neutral buildings. A high quality answer will include the information you're currently asking for and additional related information.– Atav32Commented Jul 25, 2012 at 5:59

I wouldn't mind that at all :)– Nick122Commented Jul 25, 2012 at 10:29

What do you mean by neutral buildings?– Nick122Commented Jul 25, 2012 at 10:36

I just found this which answers all questions!
SCVs can repair Terran buildings or mechanical units (including other SCVs) under attack which is a key part of defending early game pushes.
Basically put: SCVs can repair any Terran structures or any mechanical units. "any" isn't in the original quote but I want to put emphasis on the fact it does not narrow down mechanical units to a specific race.
Of course they can only ever repair allied units. As a side note, Zerg does not have any mechanical units and if he Neural Parasite'd one the unit would still be Terran or Protoss.

1Can you cite a source, or better yet, post screenshots, or better yet, post a video?– Atav32Commented Jul 24, 2012 at 14:34

1@BBz: Why should he post a source? I mean if he tried it and it works that is proof enough. Commented Jul 24, 2012 at 17:08

1@ayckoster I believe it'd improve the quality of the answer– Atav32Commented Jul 24, 2012 at 19:21

SCVs can repair any mechanical units, Protoss or Terran or Zerg(if they manage to build any, eg via NPing a worker) of any of their allies. They can only heal health, and not shields, however.
