Too advanced AI turns your map incompatible with regular SC, so it has to be a mod.
That is, only if you're talking about the script. (Which i think is what you are referring to)

If it's actually a "system", then its a different story.

you want an system? then you need like lots of triggers, to acutally make it smart(EX:you attack here, they counter attack on your base.)

Never thought of using triggers... Ill try guys. but an AI script would be better.
Like you said above,

You attack there, there attack here.

There are AI scripts that come with Starcraft, just go under RUN AI SCRIPT AT LOCATION and choose one. They are described in a reference list in the Tutorial database if you need to know what they do.

If you are having a problem with the standard "Ai" being too easy for your maps... Including Blizzard's incredibly weak "Insane Ai" then this cwad might be your answer.

updated correct file blushing.gif
here is the file: Attached File BlizzHard.zip ( 224.49k ) Number of downloads: 1
the actual cwad is only 100kb, this file is a zipped package that includes some Advanced Ai replays too.
The topic is: http://www.staredit.net/index.php?act=ST&f=6&t=12604

However this file might just prove to be too powerful. Your map might become unbeatable if you use this Ai. What's cool about this "method" is that users have a choice to play your map "hard" or "normally".

Simply code your Ai's in the "custom expansion level" family and then include this cwad with your map. If users want to play a hard version of your map they can load this file first.

If you are interested in more about Ai's and are curious how to begin writting your own .... surprisingly they are quite easy to do.
visit my home site here
or
visit my Ai team's site BroodwarAi Project

Hope this helps... plz don't hesitate to pm me if you need any further help or questions or need an "easier" Ai. I can help you customize one for your very needs.

I doubt he wants to use a mod...

Sorry I was a bit unclear as to what I meant... my bad. I wasn't suggesting he write a mod for his map. I meant to say "Simply write your map as you normally would using the custom expansion level scripts that come with StarEdit etc.

With this Non-modded map he could then supply users with a small mod to "boost" it beyond the pathetic blizzard Ai. I am just offering an alternative to writing a map by "spawning" units with a bazillion triggers. Also I did make the assumption this was a scenario type "single-player" map which it probably isn't. Again another mistake by me.. as this would require all the people playing this map to also have this mod.

but, he did say this afterall

So that was my intentions... sorry for any confusion.

Actually your right on topic. this WILL be a one player map at first, and then possibly a UMS for B.net .

Can you please possibly email me at

Joshuafry@gmail.com

with an EASY AI system? Because im trying to make it so once they beat a section the AI gets stronger. and they ahve to keep up with it.

thanks for your help guys.

Also, im not sure if i mentioned this. I am unable to make any BROODWAR type triggeres AI and such. as my disc has been destroyed. and ill need to wait till April 3 (my Birthday) to recive a new copy. so for now, the first part of my story will be Normal starcraft.

Opnce again, thanks for your help.
