usually players build multiple SCVs to speed things up. Is there a reason why there's only one mining?

- ponderingH 12y agoI suspect it has to do with the definition of "Optimal" in this case. It has likely been defined as "least number of steps". It would be cool to see how it would play if the goal was changed to "shortest amount of time".
- ericdykstra 12y agoA few people have made genetic algorithm programs to calculate optimal (in terms of speed) build orders given certain conditions. Here's one I have used: https://code.google.com/p/evolutionchamber/ https://code.google.com/p/evolutionchamber/ A genetic algorithm, of course, is much different than using AI to solve the problem, but I think it's an interesting project nonetheless.
