Re: What is wrong with the AI?
Wikd Thots:
If you're the one who is asking how to go about doing something that is not possible with the vanilla game straight out of the box and then sitting back and saying "Nope, not interested in doing that myself", you're painting a huge bullseye on your arse. So don't be surprised when people take the opportunity to see if they can land a savage kick right in the middle of it.
You want variety, changes, then do the experimenting yourself if there is no mod out there that does what you're looking for. Do NOT expect that somebody will do it for you. The people who do mods and maps already get little enough thanks for their efforts, and most of that comes from other modders who know how important it is to get feedback on what you do.
If you expect others to do your work for you and then get up on a high horse about how you shouldn't need to lift a finger simply because you have offered no criticisms of the game (at least in public) when you get irate answers, you are not going to get any sympathy. In your opening post you said you wanted mods of a specific type, then practically demanded that somebody make them for you. If that's not an invitation to get flamed to a crisp, I don't know what is. It's fairly a miracle the response has been as mild as it has been.
You were already given advice on how to change maps so that they have no indies, thus eliminating the hordes of crap the AI so loves to use. There are a few ready-made NI maps out there, if you want more, take the time to do them.
The bottom line is that given the number of people who post here, or just lurk and read the forums, the people who actually produce mods, maps and documentation are few compared to the whole. They will act on their own priorities first, everything else second unless they see benefit for their own projects in doing something for someone else.
