Filthy AI Triggers

[ThingInTheCoat]

How do I use AI triggers to increase the difficulty of computer opponents for multiplayer melee UMS games? I only see difficulty increases for campaign computers, but none for regular melee computers.

Use Custom. The AI will attempt to play according to the leyout of the map(not that it helps much). The StarCraft AIs are a joke, it's better to spawn units for it and use times actions to make it attack regularly.

Thanks. I'll have to try that, once I get the other kinks straightened out.

My test runs have had another problem, though: the AIs lose their freaking minds. The terran comp just mindlessly mines away into eternity, never building anything; the zerg comp starts to take over the base area of the terran, ignoring its own geyser and base; and the protoss comp just continually builds probes and then has them play ring-around-the-rosey at a blank space. It was like insanity mated with bedlam and had an aborted child of failure.

I have each computer opponent set to run the AI trigger "Expansion Custom Level" specific to each respective race. Does anyone know how I can fix their general retardedness? Are there any extra triggers I should add to keep them sane?

I'm afraid I don't know of any specific methods to tame the AI, it's incredibly daft. I apoligize for not being able to help you any further but I've never had more success with this than you seem to have had. -___-

Oh well, thanks anyway.

Darn you, Blizzard, and your filthy, insane AI.
