There's an actual AI class called "Balls of Steele"?

There's an actual AI class called "Balls of Steele"?

Only in BP2

Creating his own AI class?  That must be the work of a tactical geniu-
STEEEEELE!!!

Thanks Susi for the detailed post, but what I still don't know if after getting accurate the AI will get less accurate after losing the enemy from the HUD and seek to get accurate again.

@Battuta: pfffffff, whatever, most of what you write is crap just to justify your egomaniac POV.

I was lead mission designer on the mod with (currently) the most advanced AI out there. You are a terrible, terrible poster. I think we know where matters stand.

[General Battuta]

Some day I hope you will have an immortal place besides woutersmits on takashi on the HLP quotes list

 and we will say 'ah, technopredator, remember when he asked for basketball hoops to be lowered so that he too could dunk like jordan, and for the AI to be changed so that he wouldn't find hard mode hard'

EDIT: I was wrong about everything, you were right, I made you a custom AI table

Place the following text in a file called ai.tbl in FreeSpace2/transcend/data/tables

Code: [Select]

; ai.tbl

; This file specifies AI class behavior for each skill level.
; We have five skill levels: Trainee, Rookie, Hotshot, Ace, Insane.
; (We should come up with better names.)
; We have a virtually unlimited number of AI classes.  If you add a new AI class and
; you get an execution error about too many classes, increase MAX_AI_CLASSES, defined
; in ai.h.  On Jan. 30, 1997, MAX_AI_CLASSES = 50.

If you can't play nice.....

[Black Wolf]

Kara beat me to it - is it too much to exect civility, especially out of senior, established members who should know better? HLP's attitude towards new people has gone downhill quickly over the past 12, 18 months, and it's not a good look.

If you don't like an individual, don't engage with them. Simple.

[General Battuta]

He received his dose of nice when he arrived. After that, you reap what you sow. You're free to brand the incompetent and sociopathetic with custom titles if you'd prefer to do it that way; it's certainly been the policy in the past.

EDIT: actually, this

HLP's attitude towards new people has gone downhill quickly over the past 12, 18 months, and it's not a good look.

is just a misrepresentation; hundreds of polite, civil new members, often with tech support issues, have been welcomed and helped without an issue.

You yourself argued that we didn't have to treat assholes civilly, Mr. BlackWolf; this was around the time of Derek Smart's return.

But this discussion should probably go elsewhere.
