Adjust StarCraft random seed

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

Hi, I am running evolutionary computing simulations using StarCraft and would 
like to influence or set the "random seed" in StarCraft. As you know, StarCraft 
adds a certain randomness into several aspects such as weapon cooldown so that 
the same scenario may play differently. It is probable that this randomness is 
also applied to behaviour such as pathing and AI decisions.

It is desirable for us to set this random seed so that we may reproduce our 
simulations precisely.

Is there any way to do this? Or is this inherently impossible due to some 
threading/synchronisation issue? Shouldn't be right?

It's possible.

Will add it as
void Game::setRandomSeed(int seed);

The function will only be available in Single Player.
