We were totally thinking of a Toss that would just manner Pylon and then Gas steal and shit to just break other AIs. Good times

o.o
if they could make some decent ai, wouldn't this open up the possibility to decent practice partners? (i know it can never replace a human but better than what we have now xD)
When they see MC Probe, all the ladies disrobe.

I'm thinking if you're playing against T as zerg or protoss, you just rush in the beginning with 5 workers and do perfect hit and run micro on the scvs.

More realistic examples of this, such as perfect vulture-versus-zealot micro when you have 20 vultures instead of 2, perfect storm placement, perfect muta micro, et cetera, will probably be the only thing that allows a non-learning AI to compete with a skilled (Flash-level) player. The real challenge, in my mind, would be teaching things like anticipation; a human player can draw a lot of information from something as subtle as what direction a unit is coming from or how many zerglings he sees or whether a cybernetics core is spinning. How do you teach an AI to make the same judgments?

On a similar note, how do you teach an AI when to tech switch to carriers, or when to go with ultras instead of defilers, or how many factories to add?

Man... I would love to see a perfect zerg play... dropping each individual zergling back as soon as it's near death... it would be madness...

if you could teach to ai to manner cc or proxy hatch or mind control bm when its winning by a large margin, then i think it'd be auto-win. it's discouraged, but only because games would be too short.

Really cool and exciting.

The students/advisors working on this have impressive resume's and there must be a dozen phd's in the group. So these guys aren't your everyday hobbyists. This will be interesting to see what comes of this.

On a not so grandiose scale, Entropy and I have been running an AI vs. AI competition for the past 5 years. It isn't as complex as this, but it has been fun for us non-programing, everyday folks. Definitely "home brewed" and worth a check out. Panda Zerg, Archon_Wing FE Protoss, and Racine's Terran are especially noteworthy.

i would really love some decent AI's to play against when im not in the mood for human interaction ! These blizzard programed scrubs just arent doing the trick ! There used to be some fun Ai's back in the day but they would just periodically gain a mass of units, or to simulate a lurk drop they would just spawn 4 in your base, it was all predictable but it would still make for some good fun, and i would still be using those entropy bots if they worked on icc ^^

Oh god don't tell people about the toss that Forge FE's against Terran but doesn't against zerg >.< (It was changed but I'm too lazy to submit anything else) It's just that the terran comp w/o micro can't handle cannons. Nor can it micro goons for shit, but yea. =d At least it can beat zim, I'm sure.
Nothing witty here atm

pandazerg is pretty challenging if you don't build air units.

I'm not very familiar with BWAPI but I recall it being able to display text strings (make comp talk) but it took me 20 minutes just to make it call me a noob.

For regular scripting I know it's possible with debug strings and have it talk when a condition is met. The AI can detect units or buildings, as well as your race. It can also detect its own building, meaning you can find a way to BM more when it's losing (say, no Command Center) So you can make race specific insults, or inform the player that building carriers is a valuable skill. It can be randomized too. For some reason, there's also a command that crashes the game; apparently you can get an AI to crash hack. :D

But of course BWAPI seems to be able to detect more of this far better, so yea it could be pretty funny.

someone needs to make a zerg one that just 4 pools and bm's "LOL S**TC**T" whenever it has X ammount of kills pretty much securing its victory or says "f**k you" and leaves if u loses its first 8 zerglings wihtout X amount of kills.
