Something along those lines - you can always explain exactly what it does in the lobby help screens...

I have seen the same problem with the maverick repeatedly turning a small way past the target, then turning back, and again, and again. It's as if its fire arc is set too tight or something... As for the rocko/hammer debate - I think hammers need a *slight* buff to make them competetive with rockos....

Yes, it learns what units/defences are effective vs classes of targets - gorund sea air hover etc.

Ok fair point, but there's a good number of plama-type cannons that I'm sure have fired at aircraft.

On a related note, is there a way to stop high-trajectory weapons firing alomst vertically so they hit themselves / nearby friendlies? Maybe would be a good project for a group ai?

quite a lot of the ground based turrets fire at aircraft actually, can't remember exactly which but if you put one of each down it's easy to see. I think the viper and/or the toaster do, and possible the core armed moho... I was also really dubious about the support ships, but having just played a g...

1. Don't know, probably not atm, but should be possible
2. They are at the moment, since a player is required to join/view the game to 'run' the AI.
3. Yes you can add bots in an online game and be a spectator afaik.
4. Yes
5. Yes
6. Yes
7. Not as far as I know.

Give me the new aai that works with spring! Pleeeasseeee! I need it bad!

<penny drops> Ahhhhh, now I understand the Lee Jen joke... Damn I'm slow in my old age :-D

I think they're pretty....

Get Well Soon Cadyr!

Edit: Am loving the ground decals on the factories and the sexy yellow ground pulses for the emp weapons!

I agree with Mongus, it should be on by default and then ppl can turn it off if they want.

Is it intended for people to play in this new LOS mode permanently? In which case I'll have to try it out...

On a related note, where can I get things like the metal maker group AI etc, since my old versions crashed spring for the same reason as the OP...

I love you all

Yeah I think the name 'golly' sounds silly, but I wouldn't tell it that to it's face :D

Out of interest, where does the name Monkeylord come from? I don't remember the unit from OTA, so where did it come from? Does it pre-date SupCom?

Super Flack gun. Firing nuclear flak shells... :-D Think long range rocket tower for flak...

I was thinking about land attack subs recently too - they'd be a nice counter to plasma cannons along the coast etc. Plus they'd look sweeet.

But then you're missing out on valuable brawler building time... :-/

Belkamor - that's really nice, thanks.

Mongus - that looks horrible imho - not easier to read at all :-/

That's a really good idea.
