Also the level of optimization you can get on that game is INSANE, which translates into unholy levels of work just for Terran 1-1. Maybe i'll try it again next year. Just to vent a little, it goes like this: The cursor can reach any single pixel of the screen in 1 frame. You can select things in 1 frame and select actions in 1 frame. You can travel the any location of the map in 3 frames (1 to move the cursor to the minimap, 1 for clicking on the minimap and the final 1 to reach anyplace on the screen.) So that means, you can make any action on a range of 2-4 frames, if the game runs at 60FPS you can have roughly 15 actions per second, or 900APM. Kind of overwhelming for my newb self back then. I had to look up what tool assisted speedruns are: one of the best articles i could find was: http://www.crispygamer.com/features/2009-04-20/as-fast-as-impossible-10-insanely-thrilling-toolassisted-speedruns.aspx?utm_source=TeamCrispy&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=jjt | ||

What was worse - I was thinking of ways that I could have made it better using Visual basics, Java, or even Perl..... EDIT - Thought I'd add that I also taught myself Turing for pretty much no reason either..... | ||
