StarCraft and BWAPI only run in Windows, but you can develop on other operating systems with some extra steps. You can run games or compile C++ bots using WINE, Docker, or virtual machines. SC-Docker runs BWAPI games on multiple platforms. StardustDevEnvironment is for writing bots in Linux or MacOS. It uses OpenBW which is an alternative version of StarCraft and BWAPI which is cross-platform, but not immediately compatible with bots compiled for StarCraft 1.16.1. StardustDevEnvironment lets you test locally on OpenBW and then compile a Windows binary for competitions like the SSCAI Tournament. (From the SSCAIT Tutorial) I believe you can also develop in Boot Camp. |
