So,which AI is the best?

[Gota]

Which AI is the best or most complete ATM?

[Umrug]

For ages, RAI and KAIK are two good AIs. When it comes to BA/EE they do failry good.

There are some new AIs which might actually overthrow those two in coming months (i.e. they have working versions already). Try E323AI in BA for some nice scout-intense action.

EDIT: and yeah, you have to specify your mod for that question.

CRAIG or KAIK.

[TheMightyOne]

E323AI can beat two instances of KAIK on comet now

[knorke]

the lua ai that comes with kernel panic seems most stable by far.
does not crash or "sometimes do nothing."

I don't play *A.

@GOTA

E223AI is probably the best at:

+ XTA
+ BA

although it is under frequent development as such and its performance will probably fluctuate between releases.

For reliability, you probably want KAI

KAI is probably best at:

+ EE
+ SWTA 1.0

although it still performs aok at *A mods

RAI does not perform so well competitively, but has the advantage of being compatable with just about anything so long as it has vaguely TA mechanics, making it a good bet for testing obscure mods.

to be honest, once you are capable of playing online you should train against a mix of AIs, as each is individually less capable than a human player and work in diffrent ways. A 3v1 VS KAI, RAI and E223AI on a larger map such as comet would probably be closer to the challenge of online play.

[Umrug]

to be honest, once you are capable of playing online...

Touchdown! :)

[bartvbl]

CRAIG or KAIK.

I'll go for this too.
Although E223AI will soon be good and stable enough to make it to a place higher than KAIK.

[slogic]

Gota asked actually two different questions. Most complete is RAI because it uses all unit types. Most the best is... Well, does the best mean the most hardest? If true, then it is KAIK currently, but E323AI may take the lead soon. It is currently not good in the middle of the game & defeats KAIK on initial stage by intelligently defeating its economy & using weak places in defending by using remarkable threatmap algorithm. But Kloot is working on new XAI AI with customization support per map/mod. So the final battle is ahead :)

[Gota]

So,are these gonna be the most advanced AI's in RTS history?

[slogic]

Are your talking about Spring RTS history?

[Neddie]

For RTS AI they do tend to get a little absurd.

[1v0ry_k1ng]

So,are these gonna be the most advanced AI's in RTS history?

I think so- I cant think of any commercial RTS that has half-decent AI. apparently SCII is going to have the most advanced RTS AI yet but that is most likely horseshit.

[Umrug]

Warcraft III AI is epic. Also, isn't this to be moved to AI board?

[knorke]

starcraft and age of empires AI are good too. work on all kind of maps etc.
but they use pretty much scripted buildorders etc.
