Standard Ai in-depth tutorial

[moraru.cosmin1981]

good evening everyone!

does anyone know of a detailed Standard Ai tutorial ?
the Ai used in melee games?

the one which decides what the Ai builds, priorities, how it expands etc etc?

all i found was the campaign AI, but i need a proper Standard Ai tutorial

anyone has any links? other than the campaign tutorial, i couldnt find anything else

thanks alot

Open the War3x.mpq and find the human.ai, orc.ai, elf.ai, undead.ai, and common.ai

These files dictate the AI for melee maps. Unfortunately, you can't edit these with the AI editor. You're going to have to open them (with notepad) and edit scripts manually. You'll need to know how JASS works though.

Can't open the file with Notepad. Comes out all Zalgo gibberish or something!

Try WordPad, Notepad++ or, best option, Jasscraft.

Both WordPad and Jasscraft crash! Are you sure its War3x.mpq?

Open the war3x.mpq with this tool:

Extract the human.ai, orc.ai, elf.ai, undead.ai, and common.ai files

Then open them with:
https://notepad-plus-plus.org/

OR

Go to the world editor, open the AI editor, check how the GruntMaster.ai works, copy it, play around with it, import it in your map.
Then go to triggers, create a new action AI - Run Melee Script with your ai file.
