Shared control with AI

[demoix]

Hello. I'm wondering if possible to make AI control my units (build a base, create soldiers, move soldiers, attack enemy AI and so on) something like coop AI. Either by editor or by game slots?

And also it would be possible to make all slots only for AI and just observe AI vs AI battles?

you can do both of these if you create an ai with the ai editor.

when you do that, you use triggers to control which players the AI runs for. so you could just run it for player 1 as well as player 2.

while doing that you could just not "touch anything" and watch AI vs AI.

there may be a simpler way to do these using the regular AI. not sure, haven't messed around with it enough...

Thanks for quick reply. I'm completely new into editor. Any tutorials around you could recommend to achieve creating an AI on player slot?
