Ok, let's say a computer player has 5 defilers and they are able to cast dark swarm. Is it possible to make it so each defiler shoots DS at a enemy as soon as he can see it. And keep casting it while he can.
Possible or not?
If not, then is there anything possible involving computer vasting DS?

QUOTE(Tutorial: Spells. Getting Computers to Use)
- Dark Swarm -
*A nearby defiler will put up a darkswarm when some of its melee units are being attacked by any ground unit with range
*The defiler won't always use it though, additional units in combat will encourage it to use its dark swarm more
*They will use this to help protect allies too
*Only seem to want to use it once, using a melee AI will make them use it multiple times

Maybe there is some special AI for it, just like for recall?

Wouldn't it be possible to preplace some dark swarms on the map and just teleport them to where you want them to go? Or are all the dark swarms only preplacable as sprites? I forget.

Yes you can replace them. And if I had a location around each defiler and so on.. Hmm I should test it out a bit. Thanks.

You can't move them.

Are you sure? I mean you can move the other unit-spell, the D field.
Nevermind, I just tested and you can't move it.
