AI and following scripts

[vfb]

You can run with debugging on, if you have a command prompt that would be:

dom3 -ddddddd

(Actually, I don't know exactly how many d's you need, but that's enough.)

Capture the output into a text file and search for your spell, and you'll see a bunch of other spells being evaluated too. The one with the highest score gets cast, and the spell that you've given orders to cast gets a score bonus. If the enemy is considered too weak, the debug log will tell you if it's refusing to use gems. There's not much you can do in that case.

The more Ds in the debug, the more info you'll get.


Sometimes the AI refuses to cast spells because it considers the enemy army too weak to be worth investing gems on. This is necessary because ritual attacks like Call of Winds happen before normal battles, and it'd be very annoying if your mages spent all your gems on some birds instead of the enemy army that attacked you later on the same turn.

The logic isn't perfect, so sometimes you'll lose battles you'd have won if your mages had obeyed their orders.
