Not on 239
Sure. Writing an AI for 2.3.9 is insanity.
I've been replying to the above request of making this work on beta11, which has accidentally turned out to be possible.

Nice mod :)
I tried it, but the screen was black when I started and there was an error. Should I post it?

Btw, the mod worked (when I change to other program or go back to desktop, the black screen goes away) but the AI was doing nothing.

You are experiencing #3700, i can reproduce your problem exactly by changing my physfs version back to 2.0.2.
This means you will most likely be having problems with latest nullbot-extra packages as well.

Here is the complete tech tree, should be pretty easy to remember.

I could use some help with TCMasks for the scavenger models, cause most of them don't have player colors showing up anywhere right now.

I'm intending this to be mp-balanced, if possible, throwing away the current scav stats; of course it'd require quite some testing to achieve, and of course the stats may change in the process.

The mod includes two sorts of labs (you need to have an advanced lab actually built to carry out advanced research, like rockets, mortars and choppers), two sorts of factories (some tanks like bus and firetruck can only be produced in the heavy factory), two sorts of construction droids (the excavator is building faster than crane, unproportionally expensive and hard to destroy; use it to build on unsafe spots or when you are at truck limits and still want more).

This mod includes a skirmish AI called NullBot ~Mini~; no other AI is known to work with this mod, so make sure you select it when you want to play a skirmish game.
i have a few questions
why are there no walls
why no command center
why cant we customize units?
sorry if im asking for to much

1. Not ready (need T-shaped and +-shaped models)
2. Intentional (we don't need to design units, and making it for just a minimap is merely an annoyance).
3. Intentional (that's what i wanted from this mod, for wz engine to support a traditional style rts, look for other mods if you want unit design).
