The muta BOs make it really apparent that the program needs to account for taking guys off of gas. An ideal muta rush should be building a lair at 100 gas, spire at 200 gas, and the first X mutas at X*100 gas. The 8 muta build gets mutas at 600 minerals and 844 gas and builds the last muta at 100/300 which is obviously a lot of wasted time spent on gas. Should probably just take extractor tricks out of the equations too since they clearly don't properly account for the right amount of time spent off mining to do them and the risk/reward varies wildly between players.

Uhm..none of the muta builds use queens? O_o Wow...
|
^^ thinking the same thing. i dont see the applicability of, say, the 5 muta BO because theres almost a 0% chance you wouldnt face some sort of aggressions by then
basically, anything beyond the first 5 mins of the game seems like a stretch. i would never build for mutas without building at least queen(s) and spine(s)
|
^ Except that isn't what this BO was trying to acomplish.
Add the parameters yourself, 8 Muta + Queen + Spines or howeer else you want to pull it off.
Define your own conditions, he's only providing examples.

I'm not entirely sure why it chose an expo over a queen, if it didn't get the other two gas. Could be a bug here.
edit: Or maybe not. It likes to stay low supply, and looks like it chose a hatch over queen because it had the minerals to spare, but not the supply, choosing to spend the supply on drones instead. It was waiting for minerals to come in to build the spire, but then after the spire was built and mutas were on their way, it had an extra 200 minerals.
I think what this build order is telling us is that other things can be fit in here, at very little cost.
edit 2: And that waiting for a spire is a giant pain in the butt.

@tetracycloide
just because you don't have 0min/0gas after reaching your goal doesn't mean that the build isn't optimized to get the mutas ASAP.
You're piling gas while the lair/spire build, and you wouldn't get mutas faster by piling minerals. Besides, we all know that you must be way ahead in gas when you go mutas because they're just so gas expensive... but that's not the point; the application just tried to find the fastest way to make you hatch mutas.

Damn you! Was going to start my implementation of the same thing (though for all races) this weekend!

Thank you! Open source means the protoss & terran users will have something similiar very soon
Quick question: Does your program send workers to newly build expansions to circumvent oversaturation? Do they get there "instantly"?
|
To have the best economy while holding off a 4 gate, you could just say,
I need 30 zerglings and 2 spine crawlers by 6:30 (like use Unit Tester to see how much you would actually need to fend off 4 gate)
but make as many drones as possible while still having that many
this is cool. won't break sc2 tho. it might create a lot of noobs who memorize a few builds but will never be top players though
|
This is some cool stuff. Like many have said before me, having the code account for variables like harvester move speed and distance to hatchery. Could be cool to also allow for users to input other variables like pulling a drone for scouting.

from earlier in the thread,
A flaw right now is that it assumes the workers are maynarded over instantly, with no mineral time lost. That is going on the list of things to fix.
|
@Lomilar you need to tell your application that at around 3:30 we can have a proxy reaper in our base.
Meaning that around 2:40 (13-14 supply on the Muta5 BO) we should consider a spine crawler or some lings.
Definitely need to consider replacing that hatch by 2 queens if possible too, but I admit it's nice to see that the application even CONSIDERS going 2hatches without a single queen. Tell her that the No-Queen Monday Funday was weeks ago!

question: can it factor in upgrades?
also the 5/6/7/8 muta thing on previous page, it seems the extractor trick breaks your population

Yeah, it can factor in upgrades.
I'll check into the extractor trick thing. It seems to be messing with something.

I don't know if my thread on page 11 will ever get read but I wanted to provide my input. I think that this program should be used as a guideline and nothing more. A guideline to compare what is theoretically possible and how close you have achieved this theoretical possibility,
The problem is that this program can be used to refine 1 base all-in cheeses. While this is not necessarily bad it can create a big problem in the lower leagues.

Why would you write it in Java? It sounds like a very intensive operation.
C/ASM. Should bring that over-night down to a reasonable amount of time.
(I assume if it is written in Java, C++ would be a more suitable code to translate to) C would be preferable yeah, but Java as a "slow language" hasn't been a relevant complaint in years. Java's base speed has become incredibly fast.

Let's say you get 7 roaches super fast thanks to this. But then he went just a few marauders, and held off the attack. Your economy now sucks, and you lose. That's why this isn't as amazing as the OP is claming it to be. No build can be ironed out in this way. There is no godlike build in Starcraft. It's not like Red Alert 2 was (where literally you had to get 3 tanks as fast as possible and push out and reinforce in Soviet vs Soviet, or you lost).

A scoring algorithm? I'm assuming you are using a depth search then.

Are you just going to be releasing the executable, or maybe share some source code?
I feel like it would be beneficial to combine some efforts to add features not everyone wants or needs, but many do.

That's why this isn't as amazing as the OP is claming it to be. No build can be ironed out in this way. There is no godlike build in Starcraft. It's not like Red Alert 2 was (where literally you had to get 3 tanks as fast as possible and push out and reinforce in Soviet vs Soviet, or you lost).
:-/
So put in 7 roaches and 32 drones as your input, and tada, you have a build for a fully saturated base and 7 roaches, but it is later, then why have the roaches, and round and round in circles we go.
It determines optimal build orders within the constraints of the game. It doesn't make a build good. I really hope this becomes obvious.
