[General] AI doesnt want to build an expansion

[Cryze666]

i have a problem with my AI building an expansion.

i created a custom (undead) race (so its undead but totally custom) and it works fine with the ai i created

The actual problem: when it comes to take an expansion.. well... its starting to build the new "main building" just around the normal base like all other buildings, then produces the workers and totally overloads the single mine with workers.

i tried, as i did read in some posts here, the settings for 2nd city or 2nd mine, both with the same result.

i hope someone with AI experience can help me here ^^

Im still trying to get the AI to go for an expansion but it just wont.

More details on it:

There are no creeps on the map and no hero units to be trained.

The "main building" is limited to 1. But a builder can build a "semi main building".
It is basically a copy of the main building just with lower health and food produced.

When i put that building into the build order the AI starts building unlimited amounts of that building in its main base but wont move to a second gold mine.

Ive been trying setting the building in the build order to bw built in "gold mine 2" or "city 2" both didnt work.

I really dont know how to tell the AI to go and take another free mine and take it as its 2nd city.

The race is in the "undead" base race tab, but doesnt require blight (undead corrupted land) to build and also the workers for gathering ressources work like human workers, so no "gold mine" building needs to bw build ontop of the gold mine.

All the AI needs to do is:
1. Go to free mine
2. Place down the "semi main building"
3. Consider that as 2nd city
4. Build some workers there

I really need help here... :/

If you could post your AI script and more details about your race mechanic, especially this part

The "main building" is limited to 1. But a builder can build a "semi main building".
It is basically a copy of the main building just with lower health and food produced.

preferably with a test map, it would make helping you much easier.

Uh, at the start u got a builder who can build the main building of diffrent races (like UD, Hum, Elf, Orc, Demon, etc.) That Main building built by that worker is unique and workers gets removed after building it. the workers of your race that u can recruit are able to build a diffrent main building (can train workers, collects wood & gold also got the data of beeing a main building in the object editor field). the workers build like usual undead workers do, but harvest like human workers (so doesnt require u to build the hexed mine ontop of the neutral mine to harvest). no more mechanics needed so far.

the "script" isnt made with jass as i saw in your link, its just the buildorder that u can set in the "AI-Editor" in the usual WE. - so idk how to post that other than with a screenshot.

ah yes i can upload the map when im back.

Go to the AI editor and find the "export script" option. That should give you the actual script created in the editor.

this is the whole thing, i dont really know how 2 work with this, so i hope u can work with it.
also i noticed that later on the game suddenly starts lagging really hard (probabaly due to the ai since it didnt happen before)


map is in pastebin, to test the AI just set player 10 as computer player if u want to


*just now i tested again, AI stops at the point where it should build the expansion and gets stuck there...

yea you need post the link to that, I can't just access your pastebins.

Also, if you could edit your post and put the whole AI script inside [code=jass][/code] it would be much more readable.

like that?

Yes, exactly. It's possible your problems are due to AI base building. Generally speaking, with AI created by the editor every town must have a "base building" - this is the main building, "Zitadelle des todes" in your case. The problem is each town must start with this building, you aren't given an option.

So, a possible solution is to make your "semi main building" as your only main building, and enhancing it with triggers somehow if it's possible. Alternatively, you can try:

1. Replacing your first "semi main building" with a "main building". Problem: removing the building will make the AI think that the "semi main building" was destroyed, and will try to rebuild it.

2. Just add your "main building" to the first base. This is obviously not what you wanted, but it should work.

If you're working on 1.30+ then I think there are some new helpful natives which will allow you to change unit name and properties. This should include buildings.[/hr]

thats bad, in this case i just cant have the AI expand to other goldmines.
i thought if i just give the race another mainbuilding (giving it the townhall attribute) it would work well, if i remove the "zitadelle des todes" (im currently working on translating the map to english) from the build order and instead add the "semi main" to the order and go to expand afterwards it might work right?

- just hope the ai wont break when adding the "semi main" to the buildorder while its still locked by tech

im working on 1.29 since there are no good alternative editors for 1.30+

thank you for reviewing my case
