No

The computer will play the same game everytime as replays record the exact position at which time, of each unit/building/critters in the game.

In other words; they don't mess up.



lol what
replays dont record positions
they record actions

Yeah, but if the actions of the computer can be determined by a computer (no matter how random its supposed to be) if you store the random seed, you can replicate the random behavior. For example, everytime i build my game, I have a character that will run either right or left. I had a seed of "1", and everytime i ran my game, it ran to the left. When the seed is changed to the date/time/milisec, then thats random.. so in other words, the replay somehow stores the seed.

Back to topic, this sounds like an interesting contest.. though i would have to think about something clever before i play the pc .... hmm....


doesnt the computer just run an algorithm
and arent random choices usually based on (game)time, which would be the same when running a replay

It really depends on how its programmed. The random seed could be the time running the replay, as well as it could be the date of the replay or a simple flag stored on the replay. It does run an algorithm which basically acts the same way based on this random seed

The computer doesnt do random actions, if you go many many tanks, the computer will mass mutas, and if you go lots of air, it will mass scourge, try it.

I'm coming with a rep soon.

I thought replays with Computer players always messed up because their actions weren't recorded and so the Computer just played a different game each time?


I believe it used to do this, but they patched it in something like...1.09, or 1.10; not sure, you would hafta go back and check the changelog.


Ah, that might be it. Last time I actually seriously played the game was between 1.08 and 1.10, so that's probably what I remembered.

That being said, I can't wait to do this :D

EDIT: Ok, Chill's replay for sure doesn't work for me...do I need penguin plug or something to open it?

Forcing a zerg computer to cancel their only remaining hatchery that is still building by damaging it is pretty funny but I've only got to do that a couple of times.

Here was my first idea:

It probably would have been a lot cooler (and more successful) if I actually used hotkeys and had better APM at the end there, but it worked and you get the idea.
