[TIB] Re: AI

Well, I have to agree, that randoms seem to be the only way to do AI, in my trek game, I made random a huge part of the enemy movement…ill be posting it on my half of the raptorware site http://raptorware.4ubutcher.com (currently offline for webserver repair) very soon. Along with the source, so check it out for what I know about AI J

well, the easiest way is to just use good old random #s...  perhaps you could weight the different actions differently if you wanted relative percents...

The sensible way:
rand -> A
If A>.9
Disp "action 1! - A 10% chance!"
If A>.7 and A<=.9
Disp "Action 2! - A 20% chace!"

or, the fly by night way...
If rand>(1/3)
Then
Disp "action 1! A 33% chace!"
Else
If rand>.5
Then
Disp "action 2!  A 33% chance!"
Else
Disp "action 3!  A 33% chance!"
End
End

(the second way's my favorite for no good reason at all.)
