Carrier Battles Mod

AI modding is not easy. In fact its a PITA.

Uh.... I would love to. But I every attempt I have made at making a truly custom AI (keep in mind I also use a mod centered around fighters) has failed, especially getting them to use carriers consistantly.

And I really don't have the time right now, currently working two jobs, don't have a lot of spare time.

I am working on my own new mod so I cannot help at this time SJ.

Look at fyrons Adamant mod, it still needs help with its AI and its over a year old now.

So I know you will get 'R' done.

It kind of makes me feel better to know that the AI file is just as daunting to the veterans of this game as it is for me.

Keep the faith though SJ, I'm really looking forward to this one getting done.

In reality is all you would need would be one AI, that uses the basic functions of the mod, and then to tweak it for each race. You know, I have about an hour that I was planning on spending watching BSG, but I think I might work on an AI for your mod. I'll post whatever I come up with.

SJ: I have started modding the AI, but ran into a problem. All of the missiles occupy the same weapon family number.

Secondly: I am still at it, but I can't seem to get the AI to build carriers for some reason. I'll let you know if I come up with something.

Oh, coolness.

Just tell me what you need tweaked to help the AI, and I'll get it going.
Unique weapon families coming right up!

Updated with unique weapon numbers, plus the Test1 savegame has a nice set of pre-made designs to play with.
