Is this possible? (Difficulty button idea)

[Pwnator]

Hmm I still don't get it. How do I "fix" the Teams.txt and how would I toggle the difficulty?

You couldn't 'toggle' the difficulty in this method, but it feels like a 'slider' or a 'knob' so it's actually better because you'll can have teams between easy and medium, or medium and hard, for example.

Also, you edit your Teams.txt with Notepad.


*eherm* Your Teams.txt shows you the corresponding team for each folder. Like Team0 corresponds to Red Zone. Edit the order of team by difficulty, and Red Zone might be the 5th easiest, so it's now in Team4. If your Teams.txt isn't fixed, your game would crash.




[Edit] Yep. Needs a vid. But I'm still too busy right now. >.<

As Click suggest, the 3 sets of AIs can be stored in 3 different AI folder, with a bat file that renames them properly then load up RA2.  The hardest part is to actually figure out the difficulty of each bot.

The easiest way to do this is to arrange your AI teams in order of difficulty.

Thats a very good idea for new builders, I might even make one for download once SkAI High is complete

If someone makes a difficulty AI pack, they could get the newbs (Me) to do the easy bots, more experienced builders to do the medium and Sage/Naryar (Depends on stock or DSL) and 123 to do the hard. The hardest bit is to get 123, Sage or Naryar to make the bots for you.

Bad idea
Or you could just rip NAR AI off

Just an idea.

Tigermisu, if you don't mind, I may take your idea here and make something of it, as I can see it being something really useful to the community

Yay you are going to make it :D

If you need someone to make easy, realistic bots, tell me, I usually do simple things (Thats why I rarely play agaisn't anything but stock AI) D:

(I even used to code AI like 2 years ago, I might need a mind refresh to do it again)
