Is there any way to order a computer to place the ai script? Im not talking about melee ai scripting, I need the mines placed with 100% repeatability. Is this possible with creating a custom ai script?

and no simply creating the mines with triggers will not suffice :}

ty in advance



None.

There is no way to tell them to place mines anywhere specific.

Ordering a vulture and creating a mine when it brings the Vulture somewhere is the best you'll get. But you don't want to hear that.

Trying to get them to lay spider mines is even less reliable than having them upgrade with AIs, so unless you want to mod your own AI, no.

well, if you think about it, a vulture laying a spidermine looks exactly like when you create a spidermine with triggers.
They both start out as above ground, and then burrows.
but yeah, you didn't want to hear that =P

Depending on how many vultured you have, you could center a location on it maybe and spawn one at the appropriate time, same end effect. Just a suggestion; I realize that may not be feasible.

Heinermann -- who decided "we're not necessarily anti-bot"? It's worse than spam, it's social engineering to trick people into believing that they are legitimate and get them to click their links

it's rather inconvenient actually, as it requires you to transfer it to Custom Score which might even interfere with what you're measuring. But IIRC you can also use EUDs to display it which by now could actually be somewhat convenient.

UndeadStar shouted: https://staredit.net/topic/18961/ <= wow, if there wasn't a capital letter on almost every word in the title, and a link in the signature, I may not have guesses it's an AI bot. I don't know much about map editing, but the content may even be relevant enough to be kept.
Yeah, I've noticed it, but it raised a couple of relevant questions and kept the ad to the signature so if someone were to engage with the topic it could be a net positive which is why I kept it. We're not necessarily anti-bot, just anti-spam. Thanks to Symmetry who realized my hope. :)
