How do I make one team's AI super-smart?
I am using setteamagressiveness, but it isn't doing much. I tried setplayerteamdifficulty, but that didn't do anything (actually, it crashed the map).
What other codes are there for smart AI?

The info here is gonna make your AI as good as possible without some pretty major scripting. http://www.secretsociety.com/forum/down ... F2Docs/AI/

Set up good planning and use hint nodes. The lua changes will only make the AI more accurate, which can make the game very irritating.

There's really no way to make the AI "smarter." Xavious pretty much hit the nail on the head - all you can do is set up good planning, barriers, and hint nodes.

I have one problem with my AI - they are unequally stupid.
I placed a mine hintnode. One of the AI walks up to it, and places a detpack. Then, he blows himself up, and damages his allies around him too.
How do I fix this? Is it possible?

Place them better. Have you edited the detpack that you used?

No.

Is the detpack in the direct path of the AI that places them? Are there enemy units/object near when they are being placed?

No, I don't think so.
I'm just removing the node. I'll live.

You can fix the suicide bomber problem by adding this line to the detpack's ODF somewhere under [Properties].

And speaking of ODF codes, there's a code you can put in weapon ODFs to make the AI more accurate with them (that's how the game makes sniper AI more accurate than riflemen, etc.). I can't recall it off the top of my head, but I think it's something along the lines of SetBubbleSize. Not sure; you may want to check some weapon parent ODFs. It's in there.

Hm... I always thought it was odd how all the AI's shots seem to go around me, then BAM! right in the middle of a killing spree, a random AI headshots me with a sniper.

Yes, I had always thought it odd how the riflemen always miss me and then I'm sniped in the toe by an AI half a map away. This is the reason why.
