WA: Skirmish AI

Hi there
I'm having a bit of trouble with the computer when I play in skirmish matches

I dont suppose you could be any more specific?

(Sorry about that, hit enter by mistake. I'm not a dunce, honest >.>)

When I set the game so I have allies, some of them act a bit strange and do hardly anything. On two accounts, once with a SM ally and once a Chaos ally, they captured a few points round their base, made barracks and started making their standard units. So far so good. Only I realised after a few minutes they weren't actually doing anything with them. No upgrading or adding to the squad, or even moving from the spot. They didn't do a thing until the enemy was right on their doorstep and shooting at them. Even then they didn't move from the spot.

I don't know if there's a pattern to it, I haven't seen one if there is. It doesn't happen to all my allies though, some act normal some don't

The AI can be a bit...dense...at times, you might want to try out Thudmeizer's excellent AI mod (http://forums.relicnews.com/showthread.php?t=78832).

Note that if you want to use it online you need to play with someone else also using the AI mod.

Yeah I've noticed your allies, when they work, can be really stupid, whilst the enemy almost always seems to group, rush and totally own when they can. Hopefully this will be seen to in the next patch.

Ill try that AI mod though and see how it goes
Thanks
