Game can't issue grouped commands

Open dgant opened this issue 3 years ago • 0 comments

There are some micro techniques that require issuing commands to a group of units simultaneously. The StarCraft engine applies special rules to these commands.

Module bots can issue grouped commands. But client bots can't, because BWAPI's server implementation doesn't support them. Full details are on the upstream BWAPI issue

There's no way to fix this on JBWAPI's end (short of embedding an in-process JVM into a module bot) until BWAPI adds support for grouped commands by client bots. So this is just documenting that the feature is absent on the JBWAPI end as well; feel free to close if clutter.
