Sc2 is deterministic. A replay file is simply a record of all actions performed. There is no randomness in the action resolutions, which allows actions to be the only thing needed to be streamed over to dync game states.
- alcinos 8y agoWell it's deterministic once you know the random seed, which is stored in the replay file. An agent doesn't know the seed, hence cannot predict the exact outcome of its actions, only a probability over the outcomes. So, from the agent's perspective, the game is indeed random.
