SWR Productions Forum _ C&C Untitled _ About scripting the AI

Posted by: ʇɐuʞɐʇ& 15 Mar 2016, 16:16

Hey there, long time no see. Back in March of 2014, I edited the AI scripting a bit for version 2.0 of the mod so that the AI could build its new units. Very recently, I came back to the game, and as a result, modding for personal use, but I figured out how to enable the AI to build the new buildings and use most of the new upgrades along with all of the new units. If you guys would happen to still require aid in this area, or still have any interest in this at all, I could potentially assist. Let me know if you'd be interested, and as always, it's good to see you all still kicking smile.gif





Sincerely,
ʇɐuʞɐʇǝp

Hey, welcome back tankated and yep, we're still badly looking for a dedicated AI scripter; At most, we're currently looking for someone that could do an AI patch for the current version 3 release.

As for version 4.0 currently in development, there were ALOT of changes that practically made it incompatible with the version 3.0 release so, in that sense, the AI might need a semi-complete rewrite.

I see. At the moment, I have achieved getting the Laser General and Vanilla USA to use all of their upgrades(except for the Crusader's machinegun, some drones here and there, and the patriot rods) and their tech center, along with all of their units. I have been having some issues with getting GLA to build its prison and radar station along with it's other buildings, since it ends up building those and an arms dealer/barracks/supply stash, a few defenses, and then it's done, but other times will build everything. I'm still relatively new to this, but I'll see what I can do :3

I figured out how the Chinese ai broke. Basically, it couldn't handle the fact that you made the Gattling cannon require both a propaganda center and a research center, and therefore simply stopped building when it couldn't get past not being able to build a Gattling cannon right away, thus breaking the entire process. When I changed the prerequisites back to the reactor, the ai worked fine. I'm going to have to figure out how to address it directly, but at this point, the Tank General and USA(and its subfactions) build all of the new stuff), and use all of the new upgrades.

I'll let you know when I finish ;^)

AI is basically done, just sorting out a minor issue with the Superweapon General crashing mid-game. Also no isp atm...will keep you updated smile.gif

I finally got a new isp \o/

In the meantime, check your inbox on here ;o

I've taken this time to make the Easy AI a bit more respectable, and I've been tweaking everything in general.

Hi,

Is this AI patch available somewhere ? I'd like to give it a try.

Regards
