JuBot: An Improved AI for 0AD Daedalus
« on: March 20, 2011, 03:14:51 PM »
Meet JuBot, an improved AI for Daedalus.

JuBot is an attempt to create a smarter AI than TestBot, which to some extent mimics my own playstyle.

Improvements made thus far:

- Troops given at game start will now be sent on the first attack wave instead of sitting around the whole time.
- The AI will build some scout towers around its base for defence.
- Women are now trained in 2s, so the AI builds up more quickly.
- Some men are created in the gathering workforce as well as women.
- Slightly improved & more varied military strategy
- Defence forces created as well as attackers.

DOWNLOAD:
Download JuBot v. 0.25

To install (windows), unzip to your 0 A.D. alpha\binaries\data\mods\public\simulation\ai folder. You should then get the option of "JuBot" as AI when you start a new game.

So obviously you got the game working.  B)

Men in the workforce? This is war! Let the women do the working. ;)

I doubt I'll be joining the team anytime soon: I'm just watching JuBot getting rinsed by TestBot.  :unsure:

Hold on, all the improvements listed on the top are in this?

If not, maybe you should separate what you intend to improve later on

Uh, wasn't even able to find the folder. From what I was able to do, I saw that the public folder is zipped (am not able to see the following folders), tried unzipping it and failed horribly. I tried doing it from the unzziping of the Jubot zip file and failed too

EDIT: I feel stupid now. Never mind my older post

EDIT2: At first I didn't see much of a change (I had the map revealed to see what it was up to), but I sure pissed myself when I saw those 20+ units coming at me. Nice work on the initial chat line :P made me laugh
