[AI] Eternal Waves

[Rui]

Hi.
I'm creating an AI file and I extracted an AI file from the campaign, but it didn't want to open.
Anyway, I'm posting in order to ask how to make a wave repeat indefinitely.
Your help is appreciated, I promise I'll award some reputation to whoever succeeds in helping me.

Thanks for your time!

What do you mean by it didn't want to open? Campaign AI files are .ai files and can be opened by any text editor like notepad etc. I would advice using JassCraft since it allows for syntax checking and easier coding.


To make an attack repeat forever until the AI can't build anymore (when it loses buildings, workers) you can do something like this.
The following example will make the AI repeately attack Player 2 blue with Grunts and Berserkers.

Once you understand the basics you can create more advanced loops, like loops that can be interrupted by sending AI commands using triggers.

globals
    player target = Player(1)
endglobals

loop
     call InitAssaultGroup()
     call CampaignAttackerEx(2, 4, 6, GRUNT)
     call CampaignAttackerEx(1, 2, 3, BERSERKER)
     call SuicideOnPlayerEx(4, 3, 2, target)
endloop
