This is the code for "A Guide to DeepMind's StarCraft AI Environment" by Siraj Raval on Youtube

This is the code for this video on on Youtube by Siraj Raval. This code will help you train or run a pretrained AI model in the DeepMind Starcraft II environment.

• pysc2 (Deepmind) [https://github.com/deepmind/pysc2]
• baselines (OpenAI) [https://github.com/openai/baselines]
• s2client-proto (Blizzard) [https://github.com/Blizzard/s2client-proto]
• Tensorflow 1.3 (Google) [https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow]

The easiest way to get PySC2 is to use pip:

$ pip install pysc2

Also, you have to install baselines library.

$ pip install baselines

You have to purchase StarCraft II and install it. Or even the Starter Edition will work.

Follow Blizzard's documentation to get the linux version. By default, PySC2 expects the game to live in ~/StarCraftII/.

• 3.16.1

Download the ladder maps and the mini games and extract them to your StarcraftII/Maps/ directory.

$ python train_mineral_shards.py

$ python enjoy_mineral_shards.py
