No decompiling, just observing the game with a timer. I used a lot of community wiki/forum information as well. There has been some really amazing research done by the community [1][2], to figure out optimal resource harvesting strategies, and I used quite a bit of data from that.

Thanks for the info! It really helps knowing how others have solved problems like that. I am interested to know if there is an open source finite state machine for building in SC2.
