A question

Anxy · Civilian **Joined**: 07 Jan 2011

So i found this mod and i'm amazed, its amazing, i'm a die hard tib sun fan and the lack of wave class errors and lack of those annoying probes that destroy one structure at the click of a button has made me very happy.

the improvements you've made are amazing, absolutly loving it

The problem i have tho is that i find the Skirmish Ai near impossible to defeat. i dunno if i'm doing something wrong but, its almost like they are constantly sending enemies at me that are larger in number than the forces i'm able to make.

Is this a known problem or am i just missing on something, as far as tib sun firestorm went i could beat the hard ai with ease. but the easiest ai on this game i find impossible?

Let's just say that the AI will get a proper review and update soon #Tongue

haha i'm glad Very Happy

i really love this mod, any idea on a realistic date for Skirmish ai? doesn't matter how rough a estimate. like a week, a month, a year?

I'm glad you're enjoying Twisted Insurrection. As for the confirmation date of the next patch or build, I can't determine that as of now, but I'll be sure to let the public know ahead of time.

I think they have such large armies because they build multiple units at once.

At least, that's what I've seen. It's a little odd seeing two or three aircraft spawn at the edge of the map behind you base and fly overhead.

Not much can be done about that due-to Tiberian Sun's stupid Helipad system.

mmm, Aro do you have any Guides of any kind for moding, specifically ones that have to do with tib sun moding (preferably for beginners)? i like problems and that sounds like a problem xD

The Tiberian Sun Modding Tutorials Factory has tons of stuff if you can't figure out how to do something specific. There's also a beginner's guide somewhere... but I can't find the link to it.

Certain problems are impossible to fix within the INI files.

Well, the AI level 0 might be too hard at the moment for some players (although it's still quite well beatable). Let's see what we'll do with Dutchy for the next patch.

Then again, if we make level 0 easier, then it might be too easy when compared to level 1. If the TS engine would only allow 5 difficulty levels..

Well surelly 0 should be easy, 1 being what you'd think as the most balanced compared to a player and 2 being the hardcore type mode for extra super hard? at least that is the way i've always imagined it.

That's pretty close to what I meant it to be. The problem with that is that, the skill gap between the difficulty levels shouldn't be too high (as it would be if I'd do directly what you imagine), since otherwise, for example, Level 0 would be way too easy for someone while Level 1 would be too hard.

Which is actually the problem for me ATM. #Tongue

Is is possible increase the amount of difficulty levels? It could allow to add even easier/harder difficulties without needing to change the current difficulties.

Not without editing the executable, which only few people (Hyper) are capable of. Having 5 diffifculty levels would be perfect.
