Starcraft 2 Preparing Game Data Link Page

You cannot fix a problem you do not understand. Here are the three primary reasons the link fails.

SC2 uses 2D grid (approx -200..+200). Link to:

Precompute:

CREATE TABLE games (
    game_id TEXT PRIMARY KEY,
    map_name TEXT,
    duration_sec INTEGER,
    patch TEXT,
    replay_date DATE
);

CREATE TABLE players ( player_id TEXT, game_id TEXT REFERENCES games, race TEXT, mmr INTEGER, result TEXT, -- win/loss PRIMARY KEY (player_id, game_id) );

CREATE TABLE unit_events ( event_id BIGSERIAL, game_id TEXT REFERENCES games, timestamp_sec FLOAT, player_id TEXT, unit_type TEXT, event_type TEXT, -- born, died, upgraded x REAL, y REAL, parent_unit_id TEXT, -- linked to other event FOREIGN KEY (game_id, player_id) REFERENCES players ); starcraft 2 preparing game data link

CREATE TABLE kill_matrix ( killer_event_id BIGINT REFERENCES unit_events, victim_event_id BIGINT REFERENCES unit_events, game_id TEXT );


Since patch 4.0, StarCraft 2 has suffered from a memory allocation bug. When the game asks the OS for permission to write data to the cache folder, Windows sometimes says "busy." The game then waits forever. This is not a connection issue; it is a handshake issue between the .exe and your file system.

Sometimes Windows network protocols prevent the app from linking data. You cannot fix a problem you do not understand

Example time-linked table: | time | player | minerals | supply_used | last_action | |------|--------|----------|-------------|--------------| | 60.0 | A | 250 | 22 | train_marine |
