Scout of the route of entry into the enemy camp in StarCraft with potential field

摘要

In StarCraft, a popular RTS game, reconnaissance of the enemy camp is essential in order to anticipate the tactics and strategies of the enemy. However, if enemy forces are located in the shortest path to its camp, it is not possible for scouts to reach its enemy camp by using a standard shortest pathfinder. In this paper, we propose a method for controlling scouts using potential fields, which improves the possibility that our scouts discover a penetration route to the enemy camp.
