Pretty nice Ai I have to say. I just witnessed the first game an AI ever ENDED for me. After 1:30h 2 Core Ais (allies) ovverran 2 Arm AIs (allies , too).

Epic fight.

I'm eager to see how they fight in a new version (if any new version is coming), e.g. no more "hit and run" stuff (Ai got like 100 tanks, and still runs away from the invaded base, duhh

)

i think you should let the ai choose between the different lab the best one depending on the map and then stick to it at least in the beginning and just make 1 lab of each type + nano instead of making new lab, even if you made a "make 1 lab every 30 buildings" you should change the second lab to a nano assisting the first one, but maybe that way is just good for BA, you could add a function to calculate if building a new lab costs more than building a nano or a cons assisting it

anyway as engine of darkness said ... best spring AI imo

Can't I use RAI with the actual svn 4623 of 75b2 in LAN?

I get an error, that the "expected version" is 1539 and actual version something below that number, like 1431 or so.

AIs for one version of spring can't be used with other versions.

Well, this AI does not build my mines, which mine metal, but can be built anywhere, not just on metal spots.

Any Specific reason why? Do I perhaps need a tag of some sort? Other than that, it is fun to watch the battles, too bad they take so long.

have a look through the logs, see what it gets classed as

Code: Select all

  Metal Production (Extractor) BuildList (disabled):  
  Metal Production BuildList:   Mining Facility(1)

Reth · Post by **Reth** » 29 Oct 2007, 16:49

I did a quick check and yes this is a bug.

It probably didn't had enough resources to build from the list. The code responsible for selecting the cheapest option on a build list only applies to certain lists, if there were no extractors, it should have looked at the second Metal Production list, but it didn't.

It is now probably fixed, though I cant think of a mod to test this for.

Gundam, possibly.

My friend Chrispin said it started producing them after he gave them one. So, I guess it "learned" that the Mine is the metal producer in my mod.

Edit: Though, I can't get the same reply from the AI... Hmmm...

New post, got my ass slaughtered by RAI (Well, almost, if it didn't have those 8 extra mines I would've killed em)

I gave it 8 mines, and it started building them itself. I was fighting two in a three man FFA on Altored Divide, which is my basic test map. I turned my attention to one, and plowed through him in ~10 mins or so, then I come back to my base with my armed forces and prepare for the journey south, making repairs and the such to my dfenz and units. Alluva sudden, out of the damned blue, comes about 20 jackals (which are the second meanest mobile t1 unit) and they nearly obliterated my defenses.

If I hadn't positioned my artillery in such a way that their shells fell directly in the valley where the enemy came from, I surely would've perished. He also had like 50+ infantry.

Needless to say, this AI kicks ass now that is has learnt. It may be able to best me one day in a one to one conflict

Tried playing latest RAI with SpringSVN. Crashed, after telling me that the version number expected by the DLL was wrong. Can you guys maybe get the SVN version working right? I want to test the SVN thoroughly before release, since it has so many new features, but I can't do that without a good semi-random AI, and AAI and KAIK both fail miserably right now

You need an RAI binary compiled for the specific SVN version of spring. It's not a question of RAI being broken.

Reth · Post by **Reth** » 28 Nov 2007, 04:38
