Default Excel workbook for AI\'s

I uploaded an excel workbook to put together simple AI's. Just fill in the first worksheet, and the information is used to fill out the AI files. Once done with the worksheet, just copy the 'A' column and past into wordpad or notepad.

Interesting.

What effect does changing the fields at the bottom of the worksheet have. Is that where you get the entires for the design creation sheet?

It doesn't work with my French Excel Version , cause of some unexported encryption schemes... Can you post a non-protected (remove password...) Version for us ?
Thx

I reposted the file without passwording, but left the sheet protection on to prevent inadvertently changing formulas. Hope it solves your problem.

Geoschmo - The fields at the bottom are used in multiple places. For which techs to research, DesignCreation, if PPB's are used as primary weapon some additional radioactives extraction is constructed, to some extent the weapons will effect the movement strategies in the strategies file.

If you want to make changes in something (or see how it works), most of the working information is in the 'BA' through 'CA' columns of the first worksheet, and the actual lines in the data files are Concatenate formulas with 'if' or 'choose' formulas inside. Working on one for the AI speech file (think of those old Mad Libs from the 80's), but that one is a lot more work to finish.

Fine, that's just what I needed to script AIs !
However I don't understand yet how I can make it work for mods that have different techs/facilities...
I've seen where the base data are, but everything being in the same sheet it's a hassle to modify, with base data in different sheets (one for techs, one for facilities, etc...) it would be quite easier !
However if I try anything I just ruin all, can you help ?
