ARTIE is an implementation of terrain analysis.

The terrain program analyzes binary maps (ppm image format) dumped from game maps. The binary maps are pixels of 0 or 1 depending on whether the pixel/tile is walkable.

The techtree program analyzes the game technology tree. It outputs tables in csv format regarding units, upgrades, and technologies. It also outputs a graph of dependencies for all units, upgrades, and technologies.

Both Windows and Linux compilation requires the following packages to be installed somewhere:

• boost
• lapack
• blas
• bwapi (4.2.0)

Building this package on Windows requires the following environment variables to be defined:

• BOOST_DIR
• BWAPI_DIR
• TURKDIR

The lapack and blas libraries can be copied directly into the Turk/VisualStudio folder. Then a copy of the *.dll files needs to be copied into the StarCraft/bwapi-data/AI folder. It's a good idea to make symbolic link or a script to copy the libraries into place so repeated builds don't have the extra burden of copying the library as well.

The Makefiles included in the package are used to compile the standalone tools on Linux. You may need to edit Makefile.include such that BWAPI_DIR points to the directory into which BWAPI has been cloned. You will also need the svnrev.h header in $(BWAPI_DIR)/bwapi/bwapi. This can be generated by a vbs script in the same directory or on windows and copied into that location.
