    Default New Lusted Battle AI

    Hey everyone,

    As my interest in modding has briefly come back to AI modding, I have worked on an updated version of my Battle AI. It should hopefully perform better all round, and I am eager for any feedback you guys have. Simply place the files in the Stainless Steel data folder.

    I've tried to improve it's aggressiveness and it's performance in sieges, plus some small changes to try and improve it's behaviour in most situations. Not major changes, but my AI has always been about small tweaks to improve it.

    Some kids like to pee there names on the snow in winter... Chuck Norris can pee his name into solid concrete!

    Chuck Norris doesn't have to shape his hair... It stays in shape out of sheer fear.

    A snake once bit Chuck. After five days of extreme pain... The snake died.

    Since I'm not really the type to notice features of the AI, I hope someone can report on it soon.

    sorry but do this and your campaign ai work with 6.0? haven't updated yet cuz im still finishing genoese campaign... lol

    btw, lusted have you fixed the cavalry esp. the general's bodyguard so they don't charge right away at your army all alone while the rest of their army is a long way behind? i know this was in vanilla already so prolly means hardcoded... but you can always dream lol

    Nothing in the AI files that control that, not moddable.

    yes, it is, most people dowloaded have the 6.0, so i would safely assume it works with the 6.0 and 6.1!

    Thanks for the update Lusted, I've been trying it in my mod and so far I can say that the AI is in fact a lot more agressive.

    Also, it seems that now the AI doesn't stand still waiting for my archers to litteraly take half of their army before they decide to move so... seems like the AI is having a lot more iniciative which is always good.

    I'll report you more findings as I proceed my testing, ty.
