AI Mod (some questions)

[Master_Jochen]

Hi there,

I have a few basic questions.

1. Is there a function witch will return the Rank of a droid ?
2. Is ist posible to deaktivate that the AI gets 12000 energy if the fall under a level
3. I looked to aivolution to figure out how data is saved but couldnt... can somone explain how?
4. Is it posible to play ogg files from the ai script? if how?
5. Is it posible to get the value of the ai slider in the menue?

Last but not least thx for all answers i will get.

1. Is there a function witch will return the Rank of a droid ?

If you are an AI, you wouldn't care about your units rank...

2. Is ist posible to deaktivate that the AI gets 12000 energy if the fall under a level

You mean 15 000 when activating autoplay?

3. I looked to aivolution to figure out how data is saved but couldnt... can somone explain how?

Ask one who made that AI. I think it was Troman...

4. Is it posible to play ogg files from the ai script? if how?

I think not.

5. Is it posible to get the value of the ai slider in the menue?

How do you mean?

Mhh so does this answer of you mean that the ranks of droids dont make them stronger?

Otherwise my answer is yes i would care about. Why woud i ask this question if i give a damn about the rank.

You mean 15 000 when activating autoplay?

I mean the diffeculty slider in the menue before you start a multyolayer match every ai has it´s own slider
I may bee wrong and the slider is for somthing totaly differend.

Ranks make units stronger, but ranks are only usable in campaign. In MP your unit will be killed before it can reach rank of "Trained" and there is theoreticaly no way to move it up to rank "Hero".

1) NO
2)-3)-4)-5): All of this has nothing to do with the AI script itself but with the WZ code, you can have allok at what is possible to do with AI scrpt here.

I also looked at AIvolution script to search for a method to save files but had not found it , I think this is "incorporated" in some way in the WZ C/C++ code too.

Hey DylanDog,

I also loaded your AI from you webpage and loocked in the code...
I try to learn by this to codes DyDo and Aivolution

I think your oil hack is predy cool

But by the way i vond some function called getdroidlevel() but i dont think its exesseble from the script ...

But hey if not it shoulded be that hard for the developers to pot in a function like that ... At least i gues so

And the save dater thing kind of works at least the new files are created in my documents folder, called like the maps are called.

Hey DylanDog,

yes...it WAs cool but I just copied it from BP

This feature has been removed in the version I am working on as with the current WZ 2.3Beta release there is a much more elegant way of getting the positions of all free oilRes.
