Hi,

I lately rediscovered starcraft (last time I player Starcraft in the year ~2000, mostly original, not broodwar) and if I remeber correctly the computer player was A LOT more aggressive than now in the latest patch. Very fast rushes from zerg and protoss and very fast and massive siege-tank attacks from the terran. Is there a way to increase computer skill and aggressiveness from a map-editor or a script-hack or whatever method?

Not that I know of, I'm pretty sure the AI has stayed pretty constant. Back in 04' though, when I was at the top of my game I knew this guy who had created this mod for SC that made the AI incredibly difficult. I'll look around and see if I can find it.

The computer has always been this terrible. I have some training maps where the computer will actually simulate a real player, but it's only for Brood War and even then it's kind of useless because it can only do 1 specific build order. You're better off playing real people.

Vanilla is terrible anyway, it's all Zerg vs Zerg because the other races just can't compete.

if you really have to have a harder comp then there are maps that give you the choice but they are ums and im not exactly sure how they work

l0l n00b go to map editor trigger and set to the extreme difficult n00b

There's no good computers, the best you will find though is BWAI if you look it up on google.

It's a bunch of AI Scripts gathered together, some of them are just impossible, while others might be useful to train with.

But nothing is better than just playing real games. So what if you learn how to counter that script? In-game, the player will always adapt to stratagies as you do..
