Introduction
This project is series of standard 1v1 Blizzard maps adapted to include a sophisticated build order testing system. The goal is to execute the chosen build while keeping up worker production and creating the largest army possible. The AI will execute a given build order or execute a random one. At the end of the round, you are given a score which tells how well you executed the build. Also included is a "Freestyle" mode, which monitors your play and displays the build order that you performed.
After playing a freestyle, you can open your bank (save) file at My Documents/Starcraft II/Banks/YabotSettings.SC2Bank in a text editor to see the encoded build as a single line of text. This text can then be decoded and edited at sc2builds.com

Known Issues

- For construction of buildings or training of units, the build object is completed when the unit actually starts production rather than when it is queued. There may be a work-around in future versions.
- When a build objective is an upgrade, the recorded minerals and gas are after the upgrade was clicked.
- AI location is fixed until the map is completely reloaded

VaderSeven Feb 21, 2012 at 19:34 UTC - 0 likesFirst of all, I love and use the yabot maps alot to this day.
I must request something. The feature of '-r' in a never ending freestyle setting in 1v1 with practice partners is by far the best practice I have had in all of RTS.
Can we please get some maps from the current ladder pool put up on BNET NA that will work? The offline maps are great and all but truly the only feature I and my other practice partners use is the ability to just run our own builds over and over refining the responses and hitting -r to quickly remake the game.
It sucks so much having Metal being the only current ladder map that YABOT supports in a multiplayer setting.
Please help me.
I am a KR/NA/EU masters player and I teach lessons and the like and the outdated nature of the online versions of yabot is slowly robbing me of my most robust tool for learning.
edit -
If you need more upload slots I will donate all of mine and share my log in info with you as you seem to care enough about the community that I have no problem with that.

xorpwnz Jan 19, 2012 at 06:08 UTC - 0 likes@threeleven: are you talking about a freestyle build that you created? Do you have the encoding that you can paste here for me to look at?
@vu94_bmt: Sorry, I'm not sure exactly what allinone does to the map files. It could be that the scripts it tries to inject is not compatible with the map.
