Steamhammer 0.2

Steamhammer 0.2 is up on SSCAIT. Unless I discover a last-minute bug, and it’s a simple bug that I can fix without risk, this is the tournament version. It includes improvements at all levels, strategy, tactics, and micro. Most are inconspicuous, but some should be easy to see. The glaring weaknesses that I didn’t have time to fix are also easy to see!

I have built in some surprises. My hope is that after the tournament, a few bot authors will be thinking “Uh oh, I really need to do something about that.”

Steamhammer’s web page with downloads and discussion should be up some time tomorrow.

Still next: Future development will take a sharp left turn. I’ll outline my plans.

Your creation has already started registering wins left and right in the round robin phase of SSCAIT so congrats on reaching that milestone. I'd be really happy to read something similar to http://rebel13.nl/rebel13/blog/ but for a BW AI.

Keep up the good work! Additionally, have fun when our two bots meet on the battle arena! :)
