Hello

- AI -

Standing for artificial intelligence, computer players may need AI to play your maps. You can program AI to be smart, dumb, a certain kind of strategy or even to play with only one thing.

AI is only needed for computer players as without AI, computers don't know what to do in your map. (computers are designed to play melee games not to play Hero Arena, tags, etc)

Creating AI is easier than skinning, modelling, JASS or any other practical tasks. AI requires some good skills as not everyone can do it.

AI do not take up much space and if you have trouble getting the AI to work, you need specific triggers to activate them properly. Remember AI can be programmed how they want to play or react in games, even your strategy!
