My AI has freaked!?!

[Karzama]

I made some Hero AI for my hero survival map, but i realised that the computers don't use the spells how i want them too all the time, its good but i'd just like to know why its gone so crazy. as even the opposing heroes and units now use spells which they didn't before, even though i haven't made any triggers to make them use the spells. This isn't really a problem i'd just like to know why they are being a bit strange as i'd like to use it in my other maps if i can. Thanks for any help

do you still have the melee AI loaded or is your AI all triggered?

I am guessing you are issuing them orders to cast the same abilities as the hero. Add a condition which only lets the AI casting run for heroes (the unit going to cast must be a hero).

The base spell is the problem, you know how stupid AI's are, check this out for more info >>> http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/...ustom-spells-cast-melee-game-ai-units-193280/

The AI is done by triggers. I've made the conditions be if the unit to cast is controlled by a computer or equal to whatever hero that has the spell. But now, say Storm Bolt for an example, i made it so they fire at the attacking unit, but what has happened is that they fire at a unit which is attacking an allied hero. which makes no sense, yet is helpful. and all the heroes spells have different bases for eachother, other than an aura, and to all the opposing units. Its good, i just don't know how i did it

Posting the triggers will make helping you alot easier.

The AI will only cast certain spells at certain times for certain targets. I'm not sure how well your triggers are overiding the code that's already in place to target units with spells.

Can i send the map to one of you so you can tell me what i've done? not change anything because l like how it works. just want to know what i did to make it do that.

I think McKill2009 has hit the head of the nail - Depending on which spells you base custom spells off can depend on how an AI will use/apply it.
So if you base a spell off war-stomp, it'll be cast whenever a melee hero would cast war-stomp (even it no longer does anything like warstomp).
