AI Scripts will only work for whatever race the computer is set to. It is certain that two of those AI Scripts will doing exactly nothing.

The remaining script is apparently working (because the computer mines resources), but you're not using it correctly.

Don't use "Anywhere" as the location. Instead, make a location on top of the computer's starting building (Command Center/Nexus/Hatchery) and choose that location for the AI Script to run.

If you're gonna be using the easy, medium, difficult, insane ai scripts, make sure their base is prebuilt. Also, don't give them very many units other than workers to start with. They seem to like building units on their own, but not buildings.

On a side note, if you want them to build up normally like in a melee game, use the "Custom Level" ai script.

so can the computer control 3 races? if there is a trigger that gives it a probe/drone/scv in the middle of a game can it use it?

No. None of the ai scripts normally available can do that. Blizzard wrote some scripts that have the the same computer using both Terran and Zerg units, but it was a blizzard customized script. If you give a comp 3 different workers, then it will only build with the race you initially selected the comp to be. The workers of the other races will just mine. What I did for The Saga of Doodan is I had different comps with different races, but changed them all to the same color in guedit, so it looked like they were all on the same team, but they really weren't.

Doubt it. Although I'm not the most experienced with players 9 and up, I think that only players 1 - 8 can use ai scripts. I could be wrong, but I don't think so.
