B4 anyone asks, yep, I did use the Search function here on TL, and I've searched Google extensively as well. Came up goose eggs all around. Found BOCs for Starcraft 2 very easily, but none for BW. Augh.  I know such a thing exists for BW because I used to use one back when I played BW in '99 or '00. But I don't have the comp it was on anymore, nor do I recall where I saw said BOC. A little help here? Much appreciated. Btw, great site. | ||

A good one too, as I remember it. If you do decide to make one, pls keep us apprised on your intentions/progress. And a hearty 'thank you' for even considering such a task, from myself and many others, I'm sure.  | ||

Then it will calculate the best way to achieve those as efficiently as possible. | ||

Will it be cross-platform? I have both a PC and a Mac. I know a lot of ppl who are Mac-only (I'm here in the Silicon Valley). | ||

Also people use GNU/Linux. If he uses QT or wxWidgets it will have good chance to be cross-platform. | ||

1. Worker Production 2. Rate of Mineral/Gas gathering 3. Constant production of Depot/Pylon/Overlord to not get supply blocked. 4. Build/upgrade/unit making timing Essentially this calculator will have to simulate a single person playing BW to minimize the time it takes to construct the necessary unit composition and amount. | ||

There would be a lot more variables in play if I ever program this  | ||

If so, no worries, it doesn't sound easy. | ||

I don't think birdie stopped being involved. He has made lots of posts in the BW section. Just gave up on birdie server lol Thanks for finding the old program o.o I remember seeing this thread and remembering that it already exists, but I didn't have it anymore. | ||
