AI buildings

[Dasha]

Hi,

 

Last time I did a skirmish against AI.

 

I was quite surprized to see AI building a tech center.

 

I was surprized because in the original game I remember the AI never builds it.

 

In CnCNet is now the AI able to build also other structures like a second construction yard, naval yard, service center, missile silo, ... ?

Far as I know no changes where done to how the AI builds buildings. I don't think any one knows how the AI building coding is done. The AI will build a tech center but normally sell it right after unless it has a bunch of money.

OK, it was the first time they did it.

I took today a map with a lot of water but they did not build any naval yard.

 

So no change in AI behaviour indeed...

AI is coded by westwood to build a radar dome after a airstrip or helipad is built and that is when they build a tech center but often sell it after it's built and would rarely keep it unless they are loaded with cash.

 

Iran removed the helipad/airstrip check and i think this is enabled for cncnet.

When I played over a decade ago I don't remember AI building any helipads or airstrips.  But now at least with Hard AI rules they build plenty.  I've seen them build and quick sell Tech Centers, so I guess they get construction options for vehicles at least.  I've also seen them capture and immediately sell mine!  :mad:  It was their target immediately and repeatedly when I customized paradrop to include engineers in a map (with TD style single capture).
