good program, but an option to set a maximal amount of nexus and assimilators would be nice, ( the program wants me to have 23 nexus and 40 assimilators to realize a build.
I was able to set a 2 nexus cap, it would change everything^^

As per PM, SCFusion already has maximums. SCBuildOrder will be deprecated soon once I've been able to finish off all of its functionality in SCFusion.

Ohh man this tool is fun. Thanks for doing it.

Found a bug in SCFusion_v0.5. If you select the output format drop down and select something else than the simple one before starting a calc SCFusion will crash. (Windows 7 64bit).

Not the most important bug though.

Next observation is that I ran a calc:

...and tried it out.

I wonder if YABOT changed or something, because I end up with quite a different results with using this build in the YABOT demo mode. First big thing I notice is not seeing a refinery, and then alot of barracks being made.

So I have two possible conclusions for this, besides SCFusion being SO AWESOMELY MUCH FUN:

1. The YABOT output is from SCFusion has an error, or because YABOT 1.4.1 made a change that you having seen.
2. Demo mode in YABOT not working correctly with this yet.

And if you wonder just how much fun I had, I had one build running til 84,13% or 1438934724 game count. I have found a new hobby.

EDIT:

YABOT-transcoder

I tried the transcoder converted my build to multiplayer and back to singleplayer and ended up with something that worked in the demo mode of YABOT 1.4.1:

100 Converted Multiplayer Build | 0 | You | Description 10 100 0 53 1 0 15 0 | 13 178 0 104 1 0 1 0 | 15 187 0 138 1 0 12 0 | 15 268 0 164 1 1 5 0 | 16 286 1 172 1 2 0 0 | 16 154 3 174 1 0 12 0 | 16 221 25 190 1 0 16 0 | 17 262 20 207 1 0 15 0 | 17 162 20 207 1 0 1 0 | 18 256 76 237 1 1 4 0 | 20 167 53 238 1 0 4 0 | 20 100 64 243 1 0 2 0 | 20 124 103 257 1 0 4 0 | 20 77 131 267 1 1 5 0 | 21 50 139 269 1 1 5 0


It fixed some of the build, but not all of it.
Only thing I know is that I know nothing.

Don't know if it has been mentioned already, but the seems to be a problem when the target includes archons - the waypoint isn't reached in that case and it doesn't even build templar archives or dark shrine. It works however if you enter 2 HTs or 2 DTs as target.
This is ten percent luck, twenty percent skill - Fifteen percent concentrated power of will - Five percent pleasure, fifty percent pain ..

I don't know if this has been mentioned yet, but the current version is even more ridiculous with using chrono boost than the previous versions.

Basically, I will have it completing some waypoint at 8:08 with full chrono energy, but when I tell it to do the same thing at 8:00, which would merely require using chrono once on a stargate or something, it can't figure it out for at like 10 minutes.

Basically, if I tell it to get 3 colossi with range in addition to everything else I want by, say, 11:30, it will search forever (or at least, it will take several hours), whereas if I tell it to do the same thing by 14:00, it will find a solution, and then bump it down several minutes by successively allocating more and more chrono boosts to the robotics facility and robotics bay, eventually getting under the old time I specified.


The program never does well if you try to restrict it too much. Is there a reason you want to limit it to 11:30 rather than just leaving it to get the most optimal time (ie, leave the max time at 20:00)?


Well, lets say I want to have 3 colossus with range at 11:30, and have some other thing at 14:00. If I just say have both asap at 20:00, it may reorder them in a way which I do not like. However, sometimes the only way yo even get the 3 colossus at 11:30 is to have the time be much larger, then move it back down to 11:30 once it figures out how to do do it with chrono boosts.

Also, see post above this.

And thanks for all the help, I'm sure this is not an easy thing to fix at all, since chrono boost seems to not work well with the program. Often in the early game it will just cap out at 100 for a long period of time, though if I let it run for hours it eventually fixes it and starts using chrono boost.

Whatever i do when i pun a waypoint it will always say "Waypoint 2 failed"
If it is just one waypoint and the target then i get a good result even if i do get "Waypoint 2 failed" but all that i ask is there and the BO seems fine.
But if i put more than 1 wayoint and the target it will never pass the Waypoint 2 failed :-(

I never used BO optimizers too extensively, but whenever I did I always had a problem with following it for more than 5 or 6 minutes. Unless you can set milestones very rigidly (ie, have x units and y infastructure at this time, z units and b infastructure at this time), you will have a build order that cuts corners at the wrong times and devotes resources to the wrong areas at the wrong times. I think that you should use an optimizer well for a very brief, concise opening, and then tweak it manually by playing it out in a dry run against the ai several times until it hits all the timings you need it to.

You are doing something wrong... Probably you told it to have 0 marines at the 2nd waypoint despite it already having made them at the first, or you did not set a range for the time of the second waypoint or something else simple.

Can you add an income goal? This would allow for you to create a build that allows for constant production out of the tech you have. An example would be you make a build order for 5 barracks and you want to make pure marine so you would need
(mineral spent per minute for marines) x (5 barracks)= income

It's kinda funny... I went for a (team play) build where I'd rush to get 14 mutas pop out at once (thought process: have the other players on a team rush/harrass while the other one does this build). So I thought: well, fast expo, double queen, stockpile gas for a while... should get it well under 10 minutes.

The first run I had with the BO optimizer (not using fusion yet, just found out about it) I set a waypoint for 2 hatches and constant drones and a goal of 2 queens and 14 mutas. Ran for a good while and it's 58% on 8min40.

So just to check how fast I could get 14 mutas with no economy... Only input was "GOAL: 14 Mutas" It has been running for hours: doesn't expand, gets no queen or extra hatch, and it is 92% sure that the best time it can get the 14 mutas is 8min41...

I guess the conclusion here is: people really ought to have some insight into how a good build looks like and try to use that in the input of the program.

Also: the program doesn't really understand the Zerg macro mechanic (Larvae).

Hrm. I'm curious as to whether this program understands that chronoboost energy goes beyond 100 when multiple nexi are on the field. I frequently see "100" under "Nexus Energy" in the target output, even if there are 3 nexi on the field. Is this a bug?

I could add goals of a specific income rate, however you'd have to work out yourself how much income you require for whatever buildings you want.

This is not too surprising - it's kind of hard for the algorithm to randomly try a build order of expanding, getting two queens, etc. when that actually only saves it 1s. It's not so much a matter of the program not understanding zerg macro mechanics, more that genetic algorithms don't understand anything and have to work out things through random chance / luck, and as a result complicated things are unlikely to happen automatically. Basically in order to get the gains (speed) of using a genetic algorithm, you have to accept that it's not always going to be perfect.

No, it's not a bug, and it does understand that each nexus has its own chrono boost. The Nexus Energy tally in the target output is only for your original nexus.

I wanted to use this for a marine tank banshee raven timing for TvP but I couldn't tell it to have 1 PDD ready in time Instead of having to fiddle with waypoints i'd love if i could just tell it to have 1 PDD ready! Thanks for writing this great app

Bah, this program is so awesome but also so frustrating. Maybe I'm just a huge dummy when it comes to these things

I have my "target" tab set to the end goal, and when it calculates the build it goes as greedy as possible. (14 nexus). I'm trying to force the build to open 12 gate so I made a waypoint that had time set to "0 to 120" and gateway as "1 of 10"

Am I doing something wrong or should that work? My output has it opening 6 pylon 6 gateway lol


Also how is time measured? Is 0 to 120 mean 0 to 2 minutes? or 0 to 1:20

So here's how I do it:

Create a new "Test" BO with Target = 1 Gateway, Constant Probes.
Program makes a 12 Gate build. I'm not sure how to make a 13 Gate though, as it considers 12 Gate economically optimal.
Note the finishing time (2:36.37 for me, that's almost 157 seconds <yes, 120 = 2 minutes>)

Now make a new BO with your desired target with Waypoint 1 = 157 seconds, 1 Gateway, Constant Probes.

I'm not sure if this is still being updated but here is a suggestion.

If you could specify a build that tries to get the fastest way to a specific supply number that would be awesome.

Like I specify fastest way to 50 supply and some checkboxes of what units should be allowed to build. And perhaps the maximum number of them. Like i check in marines max 12 and hellions no limit, 50 supply. That would be so awesome.
