Suggestion: Commands for allies

Post by codybuff10 »

I was playing an 8C map today and was thinking about the fact that even though i have 3 Al players on my team, i cant command any of them, they cant give me resources if i want them, and i have no control over what they do. Is there a way we can implement commands into the game so that we some form of control over our fellow ai players? Kinda like when I played Age of Empires, you could orget your toops around and tell them what to do if you needed :D

As far as I know, the guide only shows the following ways of communicating with team mates.

EDIT: A note to maintainer of the Guide. I have left a comment on that page regarding some documentation of the "Drop Beacon" feature.

Yes, it would be great to communicate better with AI players. This same idea has been discussed before.

Maybe you can help refine those ideas.
