The AI Editor

[BobTheBobCatt]

If you edit a melee map, is there any way to make the AI attack the new/edited creeps and build/cut down the new trees & gold mines implemented?

They should do that automatically.
Just start the game from Warcraft 3.

Can you explain to me as to how you can make the AI train units and use those specific units to attack a base without draining the current units created via World Editor?

 

[Annie]

I was just curious since, there was an implementation to view Blizzard Campaigns in a new update and I saw in the Night Elf campaign that the one Naga base trains units and uses those specific ones and not the other units created manually with the World Editor.

For those who has issue with AI infinite-loop building to expansion town, make sure expansion town is available and the AI is specified to build an expansion, not your town hall building.

This thread is about AI making.

For your issue, go to C: then Program Files then find Warcraft 3. Inside that folder, find the _64 folder or something similar. Editor is hidden there.

About the AI Editor, where can I find Blizzard Computer (Insane)'s AI Editor Data? I couldn't set Computer (Insane) inside the World Editor with Fixed Player Settings enabled. Only can set Computer (Insane) inside the WC3 game lobby. I don't want that because it can be opened or closed in the computer's team of my own map. I like the way Computer (Insane) building faster, smart with moves, and fighting like hell. I really need Computer (Insane)'s AI Editor Data. I tried to build one in my AI Editor and it is getting close to it now, but just 1 problem, one is that the builder don't go for detecting to find other gold mine and go there to see if it's safe for to build other town hall near gold mine, and build everything again as second base, while some army are guarding the second base, you know. I need Computer (Insane)'s AI Editor Data for my own map to play melee game 6 vs 18. Here the map with AI Editor that I am working on. This is 1v1 Blizzard map testing the AI Editor. I am trying to get it to work like Computer (Insane). I am not sure if you know what I am trying to say about Computer (Insane). Please help. Thank you.

what defines a "useful item" to an AI? higher level? how does the AI choose what items to pick up?

edit: priority setting in the object editor is what AIs use to decide what item to pick up. 1000=most valuable, 0=least valuable.

Need help with custom Town Hall for custom AI, when upgrading to next tier town hall the AI will always build another town hall, can it be solved with GUI? Thanks

I had similar problem. I forgot how I fixed it. I vaguely remember there being a few different expansion functions. One of them was the one you want.

call BuildExpansion (TOWN_HALL, TOWN_HALL)

The alterative fix was to just put a condition.

function UpdateConditions takes nothing returns nothing
    set gCond_Need_Town_Hall = ( ( GetUnitCount( TOWN_HALL ) ) < 2 )
endfunction

    if gCond_Need_Town_Hall then
        call BuildExpansion (TOWN_HALL, TOWN_HALL)
    endif

There might be a better way but I think this is how I did it. I don't remember 100%.
