Remove AI Bias

Post by Broadus »

I get really tired of being the only guy the enemy AI want to shoot at. I'm playing XL, with a huge army at my side, and yet the huge enemy army is shooting straight at me, which really takes away the feeling that I have any teammates at all.
So, I'm just wandering, is there some way to remove the only-shoot-at-player bias of the AI, whether it be through BF2 Mod Tools or just hex editing?

Well, though you're probably right, I'd really like a guarantee.

That is actually a good question. What makes the amount of 'threats' from the bots and players?

Surely the info for the AI is there, right? I mean, the Mod Tools are supposed to come with everything but sounds/movies...

I haven't checked everything in the game's main files, but considering how complicated AI related algorithms are, they are likely embeded in the exe itself. If that's the case, changing how the AI works would require editing the exe. That is illegal last I checked.

Assuming that's where the AI info is kept.

Man, Teancum, I read all of that, and there was still nothing about the bias... Weird.

The AI is bias towards the human players, which means they would rather shoot a human than an AI unit.

The AI favors killing humans more than killing AIs.

Given the choice betweem shooting humans or bots, the bots have a higher chance of shooting at the humans.
