Went to the bwapi forum to see if other teams have any videos. Nothing quite as cool as the muta/wraith micro but still neat

Very cool! How does the AI act against enemies with superior range, like goliaths or turrets? Is it already able to micro ground units, and how? Are there already BO and macro measures in place?

looks like it's going to be a bunch of people with high lvl knowledge of Starcraft (us) against a bunch of people with advanced programming knowledge. Except... we apperantly have a bunch of people with programming knowledge as well. GL TL!

is TL fielding a team? didn't see them on the official team list

Nice micro from the Mutas / Wraiths. Terrible micro from the Archons / Hydras. Make a new video where the micro from the Archons/Hydras isn't so terrible, and you might impress me.

That is very very impressive.
Asside from that fact that computers that play like that are just terrifying.

Well, at least I don't think there is a way to control groups, correct me if I missed something there (but I must be blind if I missed that).

Yeah, that's why it's 35000apm. BWAPI executes every command by selecting an individual muta and issuing the command to that one muta.

yeah that block of code from catyoul that calculates the direction to move back. I was too lazy to think about all the math so i just copy pasta'd it.

This is beautiful. If you could, why not put the AI into a UMS map for humans to train against perfect micro?

That is pretty cool, still think the Muta/Wraith micro one is better.

Btw, how would you make one of these?
Why would you ever choose failure, when success is an option.

Everyone is overreacting so much Oo
Seriously, this AI isn't even close to perfection, and without lots of work, mutas won't be as devastating as it might look. What you see in those videos is most likely all the AI can do at the moment. Flying back and forward, and sometimes shooting. It most likely has no idea what to do when faced with a surround. It especially can't anticipate one.
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

I would love to see someone make a good AI for vultures. Hit and run with two control groups etc. If you could make an AI that automatically surrounds an opponents army and plants mines in key locations before pulling back it would be even more awesome.

You can't. The AI has to be run on the user's end, it basically injects commands for you and gets to look into the games memory. The AI is a run as a program and therefore cannot be stored in a map. What could be done is if they packaged it as an executable and released it, and you had two computers, you could play with the AI on a UDP LAN game by having two computers, one running the AI, and you actually playing on the other.

It would be most awesome if the AI would judge the chances of success based on terrain, positioning, army composition, army size and leftover HP, as well as chance of reinforcements/unsouted units for the enemy, and in case that chance is worth the risk, it would do what you said.
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.
