The majority of the feedback has been favorable. Many of course have written us to show off how they could beat it without truly understanding what the project is about. One even laughed at us because the computer still followed his worker when he harrased the townhall (i.e nexus, cc, hatch). Many have complained that the computer 'is cheating'. To answer them I would like to point out that the original computer always cheats and yes it is programmed to have total vision.
Unfortunately, we still cannot change the micro AI of the computer, only its macro. This is why we used the giv_money command to try and compensate the computer's weak micro. At specific points in the Building order tree the computer will recieve extra money and gas to help boost its unit and tech tree. The end result is a better emulation of a human player than the original computer AI. Our version, without the giv_money command, can easily beat any other version out there, original or not. So, yes it does 'cheat', but remember it is for your benefit in the name of a good challenge.
A little information on how it works now that many have tried it. The match up is comp versus user, the number corresponds to the number of random strats it can make followed with a small explanation of the strategy.

One final important note
If you want to return to the normal AI just click uninstall on the loader. If you try and make a game with some one who does not have the AI, especially in UMS setting or OBS maps you will drop. So do not forget this or you will be scratching your head for a while until you figure it out on your own.
