Abstract :
This paper presents a method for improving the quality of unit micro management by applying potential flow to unit positioning in the popular RTS game StarCraft. We believe that it is the first time an application of potential flow has been seen in this domain. Experimental results are provided at the end of this paper, which show a promising potential of integrating the method into a StarCraft AI bot and playing it in actual games.
