StarCraft bot designed to test strategy selection. For MegaBot, strategy is the incorporation of another bot's behavior. Currently it incorporates Skynet, Xelnaga and NUSBot.
MegaBot is the "child" of an academic work: Tavares, dos Santos, Azupúrua, Chaimowicz. Rock, Paper, StarCraft: Strategy Selection in Real-Time Strategy Games. AIIDE 2016. Link: http://aaai.org/ocs/index.php/AIIDE/AIIDE16/paper/view/13998.
This was MegaBot's debut in StarCraft AI Tournaments hosted in AI conferences.
On the first stage, MegaBot placed 5th among 16 competitors. On the second stage, composed of first stage's top-8 competitors, MegaBot placed 7th (3rd best student bot). Detailed results at: https://sites.google.com/site/starcraftaic/result. We are in the highlights video! :)
Performance dropped on the second stages due to many crashes... the integration of 3 bots' codes is not perfect.
MegaBot's second participation in AI Tournaments. Code was the same that ran on CIG 2016.
MegaBot ranked 9th out of 22 competitors. Results are at: http://www.cs.mun.ca/~dchurchill/starcraftaicomp/2016/.
