[Solved] How can I choose the AI?

Post by meriton »

Hi everyone,

I read there are different skirmish AIs for warzone. How can I activate them? (I don't see a corresponding setting in the "start skirmish game" screen?)

Regards

In v2.3 there is only one AI available at a time. You just load an AI mod and all AIs are replaced by the ones presented by the mod, but you don't notice anything before the game starts. Some mods can, for example, activate different AIs for different player numbers (for example, all odd players are standart AIs while all even players are custom AIs), but i haven't seen any such mods available for download.

In v3 alphas (aka "master snapshots") you can assign different AIs to different players in the skirmish game setup screen. Mods are supposed to add more AI options to that screen. Mods working in the same way as they used to in 2.3 are still possible, but i've never seen any.

Alternatively, you can try single-player challenges with embedded custom AIs like this one; you don't need to load any mods, they are packed inside the map already; for v2.3.8+, i think.

Thanks for the speedy reply, loading the mod worked nicely and suddenly the AI no longer sucked ;-)
