S:1944 AI

[solebianco]

Hi all.

I play s:1944 1.7 with 98.0 engine (Springlobby or ZKlobby). The AI for this game (CRAIG) do not work (do nothing).

What's the problem?

Thank a lot.

Problem is very old version of S44 with latest engine.

Try downloading the most recent s44 through your lobby (further instructions once you inform us which lobby you are using), or by joining one of the multiplayer S44 rooms (you don't have to play, this will just tell your lobby to download the latest version)

Thanks for answer.

I play with Springlobby (0.218) and Zero-K Lobby (1.3.2.62) but result is the same.

1944 v 1.7 (Operation Neptune) is not the last stable version? I play 1944 maps.

Problem is not the maps, it is that lua API changed in the many engine versions since 1.7 was released.

In SpringLobby:

Tools->Download Archives

type in:

game:s44:test

Press OK.

Thank's a lot!

Now AI works. It builds many units. Well done.

But it don't attaks or conquests "metal" points.

It's all right?

Turns out there is a bug with latest version too. I will look into it but It may have to be at the weekend.

Wow! Very good work! Thank's a lot!

I tried to play against CRAIG yesterday and it gave lots of lua errors and appeared idle.

It wasn't idle though, I alt-tabbed and when i came back it had a massive army and was pushing out.

There was a recent change in flag behaviour that broke that particular version, think this might have been the problem, but it is fixed now so try newest version.

I tried craig myself this weekend and didnt have any problems.
