More AI behavior control

[softcoder]

I committed some more changes for faction specific AI Behaviour documented Below. In the Faction xml file under the faction tag you may add:

Code Select Expand

        <ai-behavior>
        <static-values>
<!--    You may use type or type-name (either will work)

        Possible values for type

aibsvcMaxBuildRadius = 0                        default value: 40     --> Maximum radius of cells a worker will consider for building a new unit
aibsvcMinMinWarriors = 1                        default value: 7     
aibsvcMinMinWarriorsExpandCpuEasy = 2           default value: 1
aibsvcMinMinWarriorsExpandCpuMega = 3           default value: 3
aibsvcMinMinWarriorsExpandCpuUltra = 4          default value: 3
aibsvcMinMinWarriorsExpandCpuNormal = 5         default value: 3
aibsvcMaxMinWarriors = 6                        default value: 20
aibsvcMaxExpansions = 7                         default value: 2  --> Maximum # of bases to expand to
aibsvcVillageRadius = 8                         default value: 15   --> The minimum spacing between bases
aibsvcMinStaticResourceCount = 9                default value: 20  --> the minimum # of static resources the faction needs
aibsvcScoutResourceRange = 10                   default value: 20   --> the maximum range a unit will look for resources
aibsvcMinWorkerAttackersHarvesting = 11         default value: 3  --> the minimum # of special 'worker attacker' units required to be harvesting before they will attack
        aibsvcMinBuildSpacing = 12                               default value: 1  --> the minimum cell spacing between units to build

        Possible values for type-name

MaxBuildRadius
MinMinWarriors
MinMinWarriorsExpandCpuEasy
MinMinWarriorsExpandCpuMega
MinMinWarriorsExpandCpuUltra
MinMinWarriorsExpandCpuNormal
MaxMinWarriors
MaxExpansions
VillageRadius
MinStaticResourceCount
ScoutResourceRange
MinWorkerAttackersHarvesting
        MinBuildSpacing
-->
                <static type="9" value="80"/>
                <static type="0" value="75"/>
                <static type="7" value="4"/>
                <static type-name="VillageRadius" value="25"/>
        </static-values>
        </ai-behavior>

I would like to test this but I dont build my own MG so I will have to wait a while   :|

Code Select Expand


MaxBuildRadius
MinMinWarriors
MinMinWarriorsExpandCpuEasy
MinMinWarriorsExpandCpuMega
MinMinWarriorsExpandCpuUltra
MinMinWarriorsExpandCpuNormal
MaxMinWarriors
MaxExpansions
VillageRadius
MinStaticResourceCount
ScoutResourceRange
MinWorkerAttackersHarvesting


Would someone mind explaining what each value means? I have a rough idea but it would be nice to know for sure :)

Very cool, looking forward to modding possibilities. Thanks softcoder.

Per ishmaru, is there any nuances hidden in these options we can't guess at?
