[AI] AI working on one map, but not on other.

[Gismo359]

Ok, so I am currently trying to make a 2 player version of the 8th orc mission, but there is one tiiny little problem... None of the AI's work - they just mine and thats it. They did at some point but I guess I had changed something and I hadnt noticed it later. The only thing that I had done involving AI's was move them into a new trigger, which is run correctly, and I added 2 more AI's (each for the same player but for a different difficulty), both have been tested in a separate map, by importing the object data from the map and adding it to the new one. Both of them ran as they should - it built units and buildings, attacked with proper units on proper intervals.

EDIT: I forgot to add the AI code. The second one is almost the same but with different atack waves.
EDIT2: The problem was some triggers that were unhiding/unpausing all the units in the map that made it not work.

I've had a problem with this too, copy the entire AI and delete it, then make a new one based on the same object editor data and paste the AI.

In my case it appeared to me that it had to do with when I changed the map file name, not sure if that actually were the cause but it seemed so.

Either way just recreating the AI worked for me.
