Welcome to the tutorial for Java bots for StarCraft:Broodwar using JBWAPI

In this tutorial we will learn to:

• Setup the environment
• Gather our first minerals
• Train our first units
• Build our first buildings
• Expand on the map
• Scout the enemy player(s)
• Attack the enemy player(s)

From there on we will continue onto more advanced topics such as:

• Openings to generate and follow (aka buildorders)
• Upgrade&Tech to unlock new units or abilities
• Micro specific army units
• Simulate Combat using ASS to find out if you should attack or retreat

Finally we can package, test and deploy our bot on the ladder by:

• Packaging using your package manager
• Test your bot using Droplauncher and sc-docker
• Uploading to SSCAIT
