Immortal v0.10f

[wattle]

Hi everyone
I am having fun adding some scenario units to some factions, example
Imperial Legionary (byzantines)
Crusader Knight (Teutons)
Norse Warrior (nordic factions)
Eastern Swordsman (eastern factions)

If i use the faction, I CAN TRAIN THEM even in a normal scrim game.

-----------How do i change Immortal AI so that, if the unit is available, then the AI trains it too?
Something easy like if Norse Warrior < 30 then train Norse Warrior

Please consider i am a complete noob and i have very little knowledge of AI scripting.
Tx, cheers

If you open any random AI (the .per file) and scroll through it to get an idea how they look, and than you open Immortal.per and scroll through it, you'll quickly realize, even if completely unfamiliar, that there likely is code in the "normal" AIs that is roughly comprehensible, while in Immortal the code is totally incomprehensible. That's because it almost entirely uses direct unit control commands, which are advanced scripting, its full of temporary goal/variable names which are reused over and over again, and there are a LOT of jumps/redirects (3k+) in the code, because it is actually written in c++ and than converted into the aoe2 scripting language.

So in short, it's hardly possible to change Immortal in a way that makes sense. I would certainly be not the only one to be baffled, if any person is able to do so.

U can add standart functions with standart conditions to the start file immortal ai, after define constants, I mean example for train units, and this functions will be work.

Example...
(defrule
(game-time > 600)
(can-train norse-warrior)
=>
(train norse-warrior))

Hello!

First of all: congratulations on the excellent script and algorithms of this AI. I'm having a lot of fun playing with this AI and also using it in AI vs AI matches.

I'd like to report an apparent bug that I've noticed mainly in these AI vs AI matches - It happens mainly in the late game: The military units approach to attack, but they don't hit, even the melee units that are already stuck to the enemies.

I forgot to mention that I'm playing the Definitive version of Age, and I know it has some bugs, but I don't know exactly what they are. So I apologize if this report has already been clarified before.

Cheers!

that helped a lot: i added new units to the game, and the Ai is training them
; Rule #9744

I need Immortal AI to build bombard towers (ideally it would wall too, even a small wall around the core economy like Blackforce AI does).
Something VERY SIMPLE like

if you have built a castle

then

build one bombard tower to it's right and one to it's left (i want the BTW to be close to the castle)

how do i write it?

[abrakamham]

Is it possible to make this AI build walls?

[MightyRecon]

Where is tmb anyways? I don't think there has been any significant updates since May of last year and we are 3 months away from it being May again.

Has anyone seen him around? Would be nice to know if he's doing well.

If we play multiplayer with friends against an Immortal AI, after the 50th minute, there’s brutal lag—even if the best computer is hosting with just 2-3 AIs. Is there any way to fix this?

Here somes rules you can add to build walls:

For some reason, the AI is demolishing the walls directly.

Disabling Rule #5653 helps a little :

; Rule #5653
(defrule
(true)
=>
(up-full-reset-search)
(up-find-local c: palisade-wall c: 240)
(up-filter-status c: status-ready c: list-inactive)
(up-find-status-local c: palisade-wall c: 240)
(up-filter-status c: status-pending c: list-active)
(up-find-status-local c: palisade-wall c: 240)
(up-remove-objects search-local object_data-tag c:!= 6)
(up-modify-sn sn-focus-player c:= my-player-number)
(up-create-group 0 0 c: 0)
(up-get-group-size c: 0 varTmp1588))


after a while, the AI still ends up demolishing all the walls. Disabling Rule #5653 helps a bit, it doesn't fully solve the problem.
