umm, if you don't script your casters, they use the same combat AI as the player AI..
No, the computer AI's spellcasting is slightly different: You have to pick what spells you want to cast, or they won't get cast: The AI doesn't, he can decide dynamically during the combat what to cast.
ROFL! And you consider that to be an advantage??? Unless you are newbie or very stupid, your scripted spells should be much more efficint than whatever AI will come up with dynamically. Also if you set your mages to general "spells", the same "dynamic" AI will work for you, so you have exactly the same option as AI. Next time try to think, for a change, before you post something.
