# ares-sc2-starter-bot



[Documentation](https://aressc2.github.io/ares-sc2/index.html)



## Installation:

Prerequisites, ensure these are installed before proceeding:

- Python 3.11 

- [Poetry](https://python-poetry.org/)

- [Git](https://git-scm.com/)

- [Starcraft 2](https://starcraft2.com/en-gb/)

- [Maps](https://sc2ai.net/wiki/maps/)



### Setup

If you have a non-standard starcraft installation or are using Linux, please adjust `MAPS_PATH` in `run.py`.



Click the `Use this template` button to create a new repo based on this template.



Then clone the repo, don't forget `--recursive`:



`git clone --recursive `



Change into your bot's directory:



`cd `



Install - this will install dependencies, compile cython, and create a new isolated virtual environment:



`poetry install`



#### Run:



Optionally set your bot name and race in `config.yml`



`poetry run python run.py`



#### Start developing

Open up `bot/main.py` and have fun! 



A `ares-sc2` bot is a [python-sc2](https://github.com/BurnySc2/python-sc2) bot by default, so any examples or

documentation in that repo will be relevant here too.



### Uploading to [AiArena](https://www.sc2ai.com)

Included in the repository is a convenient script named `scripts/create_ladder_zip.py`. However, it is important to note that the AIarena ladder infrastructure operates specifically on Linux-based systems. Due to the dependency of ares-sc2 on cython, it is necessary to execute this script on a Linux environment in order to generate Linux binaries.



To streamline this process, a GitHub workflow has been integrated into this repository when pushing to `main`. Upon each push to the main branch, the `create_ladder_zip.py` script is automatically executed on a Debian-based system. As a result, a compressed artifact named `ladder-zip.zip` is generated, facilitating the subsequent upload to AIarena. To access the generated file, navigate to the Actions tab, click on an Action and refer to the Artifacts section. Please note this may take a few

minutes after pusing to the `main` branch.



### PyCharm



#### Adding `poetry` environment

Find the path of the environment `poetry` created in the installation step previously, copy and paste

or save this path somewhere.



`poetry env list --full-path`



Open this project in PyCharm and navigate to:



File | Settings | Project:  | Python Interpreter



 - Click `Add Interpreter`, then `Add Local Interpreter`



![Alt text](img/img1.png "a title")



 - Select `Poetry Environment`, and choose `Existing Environment`

 - Navigate to the path of the poetry environment from the terminal earlier, and select `Scripts/python.exe`



![Alt text](img/img2.png "a title")



Now when opening terminal in PyCharm, the environment will already be active. New run configurations can be setup,

and they will already be configured to use this environment.



#### Marking sources root

For PyCharm intellisense to work correctly:

 - Right-click `ares-sc2/src` -> Mark Directory as -> Sources Root

## Update `ares-sc2`:

This may take a minute or two



`python update_ares.py`



## Format code:

`black .`



`isort .`



## Activating the build runner

Use the example `protoss_builds.yml` as a starting point, rename this file as necessary for your race. If playing as

Random you will need a separate file for each race you want to use the build runner with. in the `Builds`

section of this file start crafting an OpeningBuildOrder.
