yes, that's what i needed. thank you, Tom!

i'm sorry, i can't understand what you wrote. does that mean i can't get what i want in C++?

looks like the returned zero is a path ID, which i'm supposed to pass to but that function always returns an invalid AIFloat3. so i'm still stuck.

how to get Unit* or UnitDef* out of that?

trying to get it with but it returns me 0.65 for the Delta Siege Dry map, whereas a metal extractor produces 2.04 actually.

what's the trick?

shall i report the bug? can you inform those who need to know about it?

the following code ... for(std::vector<springai::AIFloat3>::iterator i = metalSpots.begin(); i != metalSpots.end(); ++i) { ... int length = callback->GetPathing()->GetApproximateLength(commanderUnit->GetPos(), *i, 0, 8.0f); ...} ... always returns zero path cost: armcom position: (2565.161133, 120.8...

all right, that's how: ... springai::Unit* commanderUnit = callback->GetTeamUnits().front(); ... commanderUnit->Build(callback->GetUnitDefByName("armsolar"), commanderUnit->GetPos(), UNIT_COMMAND_BUILD_NO_FACING); ... thank you guys for your help. now i can proceed to the most exciting part.

i'm sorry, but since i don't have enough of "common sense and basic deducation combined with basic C++ knowledge", would you please explain to me how to get UnitDef for a solar collector from the C++ AI Interface Wrapper? it would be so tolerant of you.

okay, let's say i want the commander to build a solar collector at the commander's current position. there's a build member function for a unit: Build(UnitDef* toBuildUnitDef, const springai::AIFloat3& buildPos, int facing, short options = 0, int timeOut = INT_MAX) correct me if i'm wrong, in my...

hello,

i'm stuck in the very beginning. how can i give orders?

make AAI Shard Kaik

oh, that's really neat! thank you, abma!

yes, compiling inside spring is recommended as some ai interface / header files are automaticly generated. (afaik) you can extract all dependencies but imo its not worth the trouble/time. if you are using linux then compiling should be quiet easy ... yes, i'm on Kubuntu. i noticed the new release o...

hello and happy New Year!

do i have to incorporate the AI sources into the Spring sources and then build and install Spring from the sources? is there another way without building Spring?
