What's the difference between Cheating and Non?

[stangmeister]

Hi there!

Can someone tell me what the cheating AI does that the non-cheating does not?

I've always used the Non-Cheating, however curious as to what cheating does.

Thanks!

Cheating AIs typically give them a huge boost to economy (extra starting minerals and gas), plus some of them allow them to produce double the amount of units that you can. Also, some others also dramatically increase the comps APM (actions per minute), meaning they are doing actions far faster than any human could possibly do.

So that's how the protoss AI mass produce those damn carriers. I don't even know why I bother taking out their expansions. >_<
