WAI Formal

I know that many aspects of the *.wai file have been covered in the tools section, but I'd like to know more about a few of the unknown variables. that in the tools section have been marked with ??? and one of the doesnt even have a variable I am trying to make a .wai library and intregrate it into a standalone editor and a few parts are not clear. Could someone give me some insight on more of the WAI then the tools section did, it was a little lacking about wai and i would really like to get started on my project.

If your purpose with this standalone program is to develop better AI, then you don't need to know how is the wai files. Wai files only saves the information that the AI editor interface uses, and internally WE convert it to JASS AI. If you want to make an improved AI writer, we have already the tool: JASSCRAFT

If you want to develop one tool with the GUI approach of the AI editor, I think you should make your own codification.

ni, im trying to make a version of the AI Editor in WE that doesnt require WE, so that it is portable rather than integerated.

Well, the values are marked unknown because they are just that: unknown. Noone has yet taken the time to look at them closely.

If you wanna find out about them start your editor, play with all the possible settings in the ai editor, save the map and check the file out with a hex-editor.
That's how we have reversed all other formats also.

ahhhh I see. well, I'd do one with a better interface, a pseudocode instead a GUI list. Just my two cents :)

Anyway moyack is right. There is no need to stick with the .wai format. If you have trouble with it just define your own format.
Afterall, .wai is a throw-away-format and gets compiled to jass .ai files.

mhm... but im doing this so i (and others) can develop ai's while away from world editor. that we know work
