custom map computer just mining

I am new to staredit so I dont know very well how to use triggers.
I made a custom map, put 4 players on it, gave them buildings and put to 3 of them run ai script custom level, and after that I tried campaign difficult
but none of them worked. Computer just seemed to do nothing but mining, and scatter some drones/probes on the map patrolling.
What can I do to have a fighting computer, building base and attack me?

Hello

Wrong forum, so I've moved it for you ;)

On your question:
I am not an expert for SC1's AI, but here is a list which might help you: http://www.staredit.net/starcraft/List_of_campaign_AI_scripts

That list of scripts does not really help , i just want to make computer play like in melee map ; building up and attacking.

Hello

It does help if you want to customize your enemy.

However, the script is working for me, by using Condition: Always, Action: Run AI Script (at location) [it does not matter if you run it in a location or not, both work (at least in this example)]

I've tested: Protoss Campaign Insane and it is working flawless.
Further testings show: if the race of that computer is not protoss, it will do nothing but mine minerals.

I've attached my small test map.
Change blue's race to something different and it will only mine.

It worked, the protoss did as it should. But my problem seemed to be that when i check run ai script there was no script available except send troops on suicide issions,
so i tried run ai script at location where location was anywhere and this was the error.
Now i set the locations 0, 1, 2 ... and the scripts campaign insane works fine for all 3 players.
Thank you very much anyway.

Hello

I might be wrong, but the ai scripts not being listed-issue sounds like you are using StarEdit (default editor).
For more flexibility, more features, make sure to give SCMDraft a chance.

I invite you to try out the map I modified. I don't have the creativity to create maps from scratch, but I do have the know-how to modify existing ones; my project is to tweak community campaigns (specifically those with errors—to make them playable.

Ultraviolet shouted: Mr.BurnLiquid actually yeah though I wasn't really saying it to narc on you. It just caught me off guard because I don't usually see it (because it's against the rules) "The avatar may not be bigger than 150x150 pixels". Kinda silly that it relies on users to be well behaved rather than just limiting the dimensions on uploads :lol:
Now that I wanted to change my avatar, the error image is showing up, haha.

I invite you to try out a mission I'm modifying from *StarCraft Reversed*; I'm trying to make it more playable and challenging.
