BWAPI::Race class

The Race object is used to get information about a particular race.

For example, the default worker and supply provider UnitType.

As you should already know, Starcraft has three races: Terran , Protoss , and Zerg .

Base classes

template<class T, int UnknownId> class Type<Race, Races::Enum::Unknown>: Base superclass for all BWAPI Types.

Race(int id = Races::Enum::None) explicit constexpr: Expected type constructor.

auto getCenter() const -> UnitType: Deprecated.
auto getRefinery() const -> UnitType: Retrieves the default structure UnitType for this Race that is used to harvest gas from Vespene Geysers.
auto getResourceDepot() const -> UnitType since v4.2.0: Retrieves the default resource depot UnitType that workers of this race can construct and return resources to.
auto getSupplyProvider() const -> UnitType: Retrieves the default supply provider UnitType for this race that is used to construct units.
auto getTransport() const -> UnitType: Retrieves the default transport UnitType for this race that is used to transport ground units across the map.
auto getWorker() const -> UnitType: Retrieves the default worker type for this Race.

Expected type constructor.

Parameters
id	The id that corresponds to this type. It is typically an integer value that corresponds to an internal Broodwar type. If the given id is invalid, then it becomes Types::Unknown.

If the type is an invalid type, then it becomes Types::Unknown. A type is invalid if its value is less than 0 or greater than Types::Unknown.

Deprecated.

Use getResourceDepot instead.
