I played some games against skynet and while it is a good bot it has problems that overmind solved last year. If you play terran the bot goes dragoons, but if you steal its gas it stops building units and loses. The overmind dealt with gas steal so it seems bots need to learn from others so each bot does not have the same problems as other bots.

I have posted a highlight reel video from bots which competed in this tournament here:

I think that in order to compete fairly with humans, the bots must have some APM limit at around 350 (but keep selecting several units as one action, not equal to the number of selected units like it is now in BWAPI if I'm not mistaken). It will be much harder task for bots, because they will need to reduce the amount of actions spent on micro. In this way they will play more like a human, decide how to spend the actions efficiently.
A more better way to create bots will be not writing exact algorithms for reacting to the input, but make bots to behave randomly in order to get experience - bots remember random actions, analyze the results and produce algorithms based on it for future use.
Of course analyzing is a difficult word, but on the first steps the programmer can participate in some analysis by implementing some basic concepts.

I really want these bots to improve just so I can play brood war again without any lag. Playing people brings in lag, and its hard to find games against people your skill. A good bot could solve that along with advancing AI.

We would love our bots to be played more against humans. Have you tried it yet?

When I try to play the bots using the bwapi and the multiple instances I pick the local pc option. Then I play one of the instances, but after about 15 minutes we both get dropped out of the game so I can never finish any games against the bots. I played against skynet and after stealing his gas he stopped making units.
I think if it was a little easier to setup and play against the bots more people would do it.
