[AI] AI not building certain units.

[Limitteditemeater]

I'm having some trouble with vjass AI. Bassicly the AI will produce one coppy of a certain unit and then will stop producing any other units past this. I have the AI code in the spoiler below.

Spoiler: AI

globals
player user = PlayerEx (1)
endglobals

function main takes nothing returns nothing
call CampaignAI(BURROW,null)
call SetReplacements(2,2,1)
call SetSlowChopping(false)
call SetPeonsRepair(true)
call SetBuildUnit ( 10, 'o001' )
call CampaignDefenderEx( 2, 4, 6, 'o005' )
call CampaignDefenderEx( 2, 4, 6, 'o002' )
call CampaignDefenderEx( 1, 1, 2, 'n002' )
call CampaignDefenderEx( 1, 2, 4, 'o00A' )
call CampaignDefenderEx( 1, 2, 4, 'o00B' )
//***wave 1
call InitAssaultGroup()
call CampaignAttackerEx( 2, 3, 5, 'o005' ) < builds one of
call CampaignAttackerEx( 4, 5, 7, 'o002' ) < works
call CampaignAttackerEx( 1, 1, 1, 'O00G' ) < builds none
call CampaignAttackerEx( 3, 4, 6, 'o003' ) < builds none
call SuicideOnPlayerEx( M6, M5, M4, user )
//***wave 2
call InitAssaultGroup()
call CampaignAttackerEx( 2, 4, 5, 'o005' ) < none
call CampaignAttackerEx( 5, 6, 8, 'o002' ) < all
call CampaignAttackerEx( 3, 4, 6, 'o003' ) < one
call CampaignAttackerEx( 1, 1, 1, 'O00G' ) < none
call CampaignAttackerEx( 1, 2, 3, 'o00C' ) < none
call SuicideOnPlayerEx( M6, M5, M4, user )
//***wave 3

Didn't include the waves below

Don't see any problem with the script. Check the following:

1. Make sure the unit strings you gave are all correct. That sort of problem can stop the AI. In general, I suggest you give names to your units as global variables, as can be seen here. Your script will be much easier to read like that for you as well.

2. Make sure there is enough food for all the units.

3. If all else fails, add another 2 minutes to every attack wave, see if it builds anything else in that time.

Alright will try those. AI defenietly has enough food and resources made sure to check those earlier ill look at those other options.

You should also create some of those bugued units in his base.

If AI uses them, the error is due to the production. Check if they have the correct building, enough resources or are allowed to procude it.
If they don't, it comes from the code.


You can also provide your map to allow testing.

Will try that as well. I have noticed that the ais that start with at least 1 copy of those units work fine so ill look at that. There is probably another fix that doesn't require that I'm guessing but that doesn't matter too much in a campaign mission.

Works perfectly now. Seems the ai requires at least one copy of the unit beforehand to properly produce it some reason.
