Amiga4ever Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 I wonder how alien AI is advanced? I remember that in UFO EU one alien could kill few soldiers without any problems:cool: Almost every mission at beginning was horrible hard. I'd like to see it also in Xenonauts. I want to feel thrill. Aliens should hunt us - not we them Is it possible in final game? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
resonansER Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Keep the question. Please, if possible, tell us what you can about the AI foes. Now they are stupid like drunk kids Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 We're aiming to have a basic AI model in place for Build V9. Unfortunately I'm not very good with AI so I just got a specialised AI programmer and told him to code it. I'll have to see what he comes out with, but fingers crossed it'll be something good. I know about it at a high level, but essentially the idea is that we'll hack some kind of basic multiplayer mode into the game and play a few games between the two of us with one person controlling the aliens and one person controlling the humans, and we'll base the AI model on how the humans play the aliens.

That sounds intriguing, to say the least! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just put together a series of instructional images together for /tg/ a couple days ago to teach new X-Com players how to use the overhead map in order to analyze known and unknown areas of the map, visualize possible and actual firing lanes based on those knowns and unknowns, and make movements in order to obtain the largest amount of further information while exposing oneself to the least amount of risk. I could send the set your way, if you'd like. Maybe it'll help in your AI-designing endeavors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KOKON Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Can you put at list some AI code into lua? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slam Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 base battles, both defending human base or attacking an alien base, the aliens seem to just stay where they are and fire at the walls repeatedly even if its a wall they can't shoot through. This is on V18 Stable steam on normal skill level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StellarRat Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 This thread is ancient. Suffice to say the AI is better now than the OG and will improve more before the game is finished. I wouldn't take anything else in this thread as a fact anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sathra Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 Yeah, when the aliens stop seeing through walls it should be much more noticeable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
