Submarine, while you might like the upgrade to cains latest class for mex palcement I suggest you work on your own unless cain can fix the errors in it. NTAI has had problems running under some mods, and the crash and all the exceptions following ti where caused by a bug in cains mex placement class which ended up stopping the flow so the agents arent initialised and those that do crash when they call the mex palcement routines.

I havent a clue if cain even looks at these forums anymore.....

Same here.

But usually when ever the AI gets attacked at it's base.

ok i found a possible memory leak and fixed it. i sometimes have crashes too but i dont get any ai-exceptions, so i'm not sure if its a bug in spring or in aai...

I think u should spread out the buildings more or seperate the factories in wide open spaces so units dont get stuck in the middle of a bunch of buildings.

If that makes sence

PM'ed him, mailed him several times, but that was quite a few weeks ago, so I think we can declare him "missing", unfortunately

had 3 crashes out of game in 4 games, the AI works with AA 1.2 sorta, just doesn't build any defense buildings, air, or water. But think the crash is somewhat commander related, but it only crashes when you or another ai attacks the ai's base.

Exact same symptoms with KuroTA

Don't think the comm has anything to do with it. It's happenened before a comm kill, and after a comm kill.

aai doenst build defence buildings right now, but thats all in the readme..

if you want aai to spread its bases more, you can set X_SPACE and Y_SPACE in the mod cfg files to higher values.

i suppose i included a new bug in v0.22, now it also crashes for me nearly everytime i play aa:ta. i'm working on a bugfix

Posted: **01 Dec 2005, 18:27**

ok i think i located the bug:
it seems as if unitDestroyed() does not always provide valid units ids

aai.dll!AAI::UnitDestroyed(int unit=15595564, int attacker=4823)

Exceptions are when the little msgbox sayign error cotnact author of Ai thign pops up. if you uncheck the bit in settings on exception checkign then you get a fullblown spring crash instead. And sicne AAI has no itnernal exception checking, you're onyl gonna get those 2 types fo crash, both fo whcih you cant recover from.

hrm, AI doesn't seem to be building mex's.....

and no mention in the logs of how many metal spots it has found

Posted: **02 Dec 2005, 04:18**

haven't crashed yet, but didn't play for that long before someone immed me and spring started doing it's tearing glitch, but the ai does build kbots, least for AAI, though still don't see any air or naval, I'll try running it a bit more.

Oh yea, metal extractors aren't building for me for both XTA and AA on both Core and Arm.

did you try to build solar plants on your own?

most of the time, these error messages result from human players who want to help the ai...

crashes here with AA too, log doesn't tell anything though, running multiple bots at a time, log's not displaying any error, just getting the Error in global ai. Did get a program crash before too though. Extractors are back up though.
