I will soon release a new tool called BWCoach which, as the name implies, will act like some kind of coach during BW games. For example, it will tell you what to build and when to realize a particular build order.

The documentation is already online at http://www.bwchart.com

All feedback before release is appreciated.
Thanks

sounds like you're trying to take over the gaming world by getting all the builds and skill needed and then use robots to play while you get all the money, just my opinion though.

Thats absolutely awful. If you need a program to teach you how to play BW, you'll become reliant on the program.

weakens the level of gameplay, not to mention the game itself. like a football player using massive amounts of steroids and creatine, it may seem like its helping the player at the time, but in the end it hurts their game more than helping it.
keep your friends close but your enemies closer.

Well if you want to memorize a build perfectly, it could help. Also might be good for totally new players.

there is nothing wrong with this at all

its no different than over-analyzing replays, just saves time.

On second thought, if any of my friends start playing starcraft and want to know builds, I'll probably recommend this.

It obviously wouldn't work past early stages, but for that I think it would be good. That way you can give it to newbies and it will make starting much easier for them.

Optimally they should figure it out for themself, or atleast comprehend enough to understand a build order and make their own, but for non-fanatics that is asking a lot. They would be able to enjoy the game at an average level and concentrate on the more fun parts (I don't know anyone who enjoys the beginning).
wtf was that signature

Yeah, I totally disagree with the becoming reliant on it thing, the only people who would use it are people who arent experienced enough, and once it teaches them what to do in a certain situation they wont need it anymore.
Nobody would keep using it after a certain point, because there'd be no point to have it tell you the same thing over again.

whoa

"Cool stuff: Training files can be created using the new 'Export to BWCoach' feature of BWChart 1.02N. So if you see a nice build order in a replay of your favorite pro-gamer, simply load the replay, export it to a training file and go practice it with BWCoach !"

thats awesome

The steroid analogy is more like a Starcraft player taking massive amounts of Speed.

This idea is great, everythign else is well coached. Its not like you cant copy build orders anyway, it just makes it easier.

I think it will be very neat. Read everything on bwchart first before you cast your judgement on it.
