What are the differences between the Bran AI version and the Bran AI ++ version?
Rick the ++ version adds modified vanilla units as this is for the vanilla version of the game.
UPDATE: added new effects bonus basic values junction table. Lowered money a bit for minor factions so they do not get too powerful. Post 1
Just wondering is there a place where I can see each factions behavior such as amphibious assault, expansion,etc. modifiers or are they global values? I also have the same question for Napoleon. Napoleon has a data folder tht looked at, but ddn't see each individual nations behavior.
Thanks.
Irish db folder-Campaign Ai Manager Behavior Junctions Tables. FULL and MAINTAINANCE. Major nations are under Full and Minors under Maintainance. You can change what they are in the startups POS files or Save game files with the esf editor. In fact you can create your own and assign it to a single faction if you want to. The Same with Campaign AI Manager Personalities Junctions there are sub catergories. It is a lot of modding to do.
UPDATE: Raised unit size by 40% for epic battles Bran Empire AI++ version post 1
The factions seem to be spamming Militia like crazy. Initially, I think the cost of recruiting a Militia unit should be cheap, but keeping militia under arms for any length of time would realistically impact the economy. That being said, wouldn't it be better to raise the maintenance cost of the Militia to reflect this? That would probably resolve the spamming problem as well.
UPDATE- Better balanced armies with no militia spam! AI will upgrade buildings better Post 1
That was quick.
I was also wondering, during battle when I order a cavalry unit to charge an enemy unit - from long distance - it will get close to the target unit, stop, wheel around, close up it's formation and stand there facing the target unit. But it doesn't carry home the charge. Is this a fatigue thing? I'm going to watch to see if it keeps doing it or if it only does it a certain times.
Get about 150 yards out and charge home from the flank or rear. Double click on the target.
UPDATE: new campaign behavior-better expansion, new trigger events. post 1
UPDATE: New BAI settings for better line cohesion and musket fire fights Post 1
UPDATE. New trigger events for better diplomacy and BAI. Post 1
I might give this a go when I get my PC back from the repair shop.
However, I'm not sure about the spacing changes. Unit frontage is too open already in ETW and I've gone to great lengths to close it down so men are standing shoulder to shoulder like they should. Is it possible for me to mod your mod to reduce these spaces back to historical settings, or can it be over-ridden in some way?
The rest of it sounds brilliant, as long as by aggressive you don't mean psychotic and stupid AI factions.
Well line infantry is already modded to be tight, light infantry not, but go ahead and make them tighter,it will not change the BAI. Aggressive yes- but not psychotic. They will try to expand if possible and not turtle and sit on their asses forever. It is not a passive campaign like vanilla Empire. Play on Hard campaign mode and Very Hard Battles.
UPDATE: Better expansion for factions, Ai will try to take back regions more,new trigger events. Post 1
It also works for all the mods?
Even for the mod on WWI?
