Title: FREDing AI Tricks
Post by: wookieejedi on October 22, 2015, 03:45:42 pm

Hi all,

I was wondering if any of the experienced FREDers would be willing to share any tips about altering AI behavior with SEXPs. I have searched for this topics on the forum and wiki page and looked in numerous mission files, but I have not found a lot. What I have found are making AI jump-out and change behavior when under a certain damage, but not much else. I was wondering if there were additional tricks? Things I was thinking of and testing were creating a repeating SEXP to fire and tell certain wings to cover other wings (or units within wings), or make the AI more evasive via having them follow a randomly placed, continually updated way-point path when they get below a certain health. My ultimate goal is to make the AI behave more like a person and have some self preservation and fellow wing-men protection behavior. Any advice or tips anyone would be willing to share would be greatly appreciated!

Are you using Fury AI or another advanced AI pack?
