I have worked on a new scavenger AI ("dydo-scav" I know...I have not much fantasy...) to be used in skirmish games.
Do not expect too much from this AI, the scope is to use it in 1vs1 games to make life harder for human player.
Sounds great!! One thing though, does it make use of the scavenger "help" radius script? Olrox had a problem with the scavs on the other end of the map coming to help in a totally different area if just one of the buildings was attacked.
Clear now. Yes this behavior is also in the dydo-scav AI. All scav droids are sent to protect the attacked structure regardless of the distance they have from that structure. I will see if I can deal with this and introduce the "aid radius" suggested by Olrox.

Dydo scav AI is nice, but it makes 1-1 games easier. Scavs attacks are not so sever so I can defend my derrics with a couple of MG towers. At the same time scav prevent Dydo AI from attacking me.
To make this work, Dydo Ai should be allied with Dydo scav Ai

I can increase the numbers of units dydo-scav is using to attack.

This is not possible, I do not know if this is a wanted feature or a bug but the createAlliance() does not work for scavenger AI...(yes, I tried it with unlocked alliances)

Be sure to remove this debugging mode in next dydo scav (messages that tells the player what scavengers are doing). It is ok for test version, but not for official release in 2.3.
It would be best if scavs do not attack dydo, but use their forces only to attack human player. I am not sure if this will work, because I feel that scavengers will be protecting me against dydo in early game. Alliance dydo+scav is probably the only possibility I think. Could you please try to find how to make scavengers allied with Dydo? This would surely make games more intensive and harder in 1-1 duel.
