as obvious as some of this may be to those who arent JASS newbs, ive searched the forums and i am stumped. im making a hero arena, and one of the features i would like to impliment is the have neutral extra and neutral victim as players 13 and 14 respectively. to make this work my map needs an AI. i realize there are many options as to how i can specifically make this. #1- ai editor i fiddled with the AI editor, and it appears to be of no use to me. am i right or just plain ignorant? keep in mind im making a hero arena. #2- trigger i thought about making the whole thing out of triggers, but i was wondering if there was a better alternative. this option is perfectly feasable to me, but would be fairly difficult. #3- AI scripts there is an action in GUI that starts an AI script. it asks for a string, and i cant find list anywhere of the different strings possible, or how they work. #4- AI system has somebody already made an AI system i could use? i checked the demo maps and sample maps, ans tutorials but found nothing. #5- a map i found a friend of mine found this map and emailed it to me. my knowledge of JASS is limited to making GUI triggers multi-instancable, patching memory leaks, and the occasional loop i use as a substitute for timers in multi-instancable spells. i cant really understand this map even though its called an AI tutorial. my plan is to allow players to purchase bots that are basically heroes who act on thier own and cannot be controlled. to do this, i would need to make an AI that would controll one unit owned by a player. i would theorize that some AIs might not work for controlling a single unit owned by a player without effecting the rest. to make these bots, i am giving them the ward class and blocking smart orders. does anybody want to help me? even a little bit of help would be great! edit: i forgot to mention what script im using currently Trigger:   Events
   Time - Every (Random real number between 0.00 and 10.00) seconds of game time
  Conditions
  Actions
  Player Group - Pick every player in compies and do (Actions)
Loop - Actions
 Custom script: local location udg_AIattackpoint
 Set AIattackpoint = (Random point in playable arena area <gen>)
 Unit - Order (Random unit from (Units owned by (Picked player))) to Attack-Move To AIattackpoint
Custom script: set udg_AIattackpoint = null
Custom script: call RemoveLocation( udg_AIattackpoint )heres the map i was talking about EDIT: i finally found an excelent tutorial to make an AI. there is no reason for this topic to exist now |
