What was the AI script for detecting when a unit is cloaked/uncloaked. I thought I had the map testing this, but it's not there.
Any help/have the map?



None.

We can't explain the universe, just describe it; and we don't know whether our theories are true, we just know they're not wrong. >Harald Lesch

There is no way to detect if a unit is cloaked or uncloaked (except by trying to kill it with another unit not visioned to it). And there's definitely no ai for it.

lol, there is an AI script that makes a unit move toward any unit that it can see, which means that it won't move towards a cloaked unit. I just forget what the AI script was. (Actually I think it was a combination of two.)

Generic command target
Set Player to ally here

These look significant, but I've never heard of this before.

Just here for the pie

All you do is have wraiths in the corner of the map that have random strategic suicide missions, and you detect when they move and move them back to their position. If the wraiths aren't moving, because they won't go after cloaked units, you detect it, although I think Kenoli beat me to it.

Yep, thats the map. I wonder how I lost it.

It just unallies... It was before they added Set Alliance Status. I have no idea why it is at location... I've used it before, though. :P

Nonetheless, how is that supposed to work when you have multiple units, some cloaked and some not?



None.

Cloak detection works off the principle that a unit wants to attack the cloakee. When its cloaked, it stays still, and therefore is detected as being cloaked.



None.

Yeah, but that does not answer my question, that method will not work if you have more than just one cloaking unit.



None.

It's not.

You can move a unit to a unit may cloak.. If the unit is in moving, the objetive is uncloaked. If the unit dont move, the unit is cloaked.

OR something else xD >_<

How hard....



None.

NimoStar shouted: They were not "Unprepared" that was their fifth loss in a row against the bot. The other replays are also available
that doesn't mean he was prepared. When humans come around with new strategies it often takes weeks until the pros figure out how to shut it down. Oh_Man that's certainly a way more convincing argument for micro being "too good to beat".
