AI CONTEST #1 Battle Thread

[Gwypaas]

What's the point? You still can't edit your AI to abuse it now. And it was said that the AI's would be released after the contest.

So go ahead release it if you want.

 

[Andrewgosu]

The AI codes will be soon available, as soon as I'll finish importing the AIs to form the group match-ups.

Anyway, BRUTAL, I'm having some technical difficulties with your AI - no matter how I import it and follow your guidelines, or even modify the code, the AI just sits there. Are you sure you debugged it before releasing?


Next, I think I'll arrange the live group match-ups to begin in the next week because I've been informed that I have to go on a trip this Wednesday and I'll be back at the beginning of the next week.

I'll put up the order of the matches before I go so that people can sign in for the match-ups because there are only 12 slots.

I hope my brief lack of presence in the following days to come won't cause any havoc...

i thought like 40%+ would pick mk T_T such a tank lol

MK is really easy to counter. Just run from him when he activates avatar and, except that, just make sure you make as much damage as possible. Tinker had the Cluster Rockets which stunned the MK and Pocket Factory. Trust me, being attacked by 8 small robots and another big one which continuously casts a mana-cheap stunning spell on you brings your health down really fasts. Besides that, the robots were surrounding the enemy, making it harder for him to escape.

 

[BRUTAL]

we'll see about that >: o
(i hope my ai doesnt get its ass kicked now T_T)

edit*
shit i didnt see what you said andrew D:
uh, did you try placing an enemy hero near the mk?
or just it just do nothing at all and not attack? (i had seen this issue before but i thoguht i fixed it.)

yea the version i uploaded worked, but then again trying to test the map later caused it not to load ><
i'll check if i can get it to work from here and tell you how to fix it

 

[GetTriggerUnit-]

You say there's only 12 room.

I wouldn't mind to don't be there, "live", but will you post replays?

 

[BRUTAL]

it was said that he'll post videos

 

[warden13]

I uninstalled the game. So, I can not be there as well. Just wanted to say.

 

[XxShadyxX]

I would like to be there

 

[GetTriggerUnit-]

@ andrew
i just tested my uploaded map, it works fine
i think what you were describing was the lack of ...making the hero move around
which i completely did not do

the only kind of movement that isnt for running back to heal, or dodge and such was call: IssuePointOrder (Hero, "attack", 0 , 0)
though it was not put in the map; can you add that that line in the 'Get Storm Bolt' trigger?

i hope moving around and searching isnt completely mandatory D:
i just wanted mine to go to the center and wait for the enemy to find it : P

 

[Gtam]

No Tauren Chieftan cant believe it. Well goodluck on the AI's and Andrewgosu i didnt have patch 1.23 so i couldnt commentate

 

[Andrewgosu]

i just wanted mine to go to the center and wait for the enemy to find it

My bad, didn't know that was intentional.

 

[Jesus4Lyf]

Idea: At 7 minutes reveal the whole map? (Not showing invis.)

(I hope the replays will be posted with the map they are for. )

 

[BRUTAL]

oh my; i made a mistake in my code and now my hero doesnt run to a fountain when his health is low i have no chance

 

[kingkingyyk3]

I want to see the battle....

 

[Andrewgosu]

The group stage battles will be held live on 29th and 30th of July due me being away the days before these dates.

The place will be battle net and the time 22:00 central european time (GMT +1).

If you want to see the battles live, PM me telling what battles you want to see.

eg.

xx vs xx
xx vs yy
etc.

The fastest get a slot, AI authors are favored over regular spectators.

 

[Monovertex]

Will the battles be recorded? I can't get on B.net.

 

[Andrewgosu]

Yes, the battles will be recorded and hopefully uploaded to youtube.

 

[BlackRose]

What about replays + maps .... like someone said.

 

[warden13]

The group stage battles will be held live on 29th and 30th of July due me being away the days before these dates.

The place will be battle net and the time 22:00 central european time (GMT +1).

Isn't it a bit late? Is there a chance to make it 3-4 days earlier? Or starting tomorrow make a battle everyday. So everyday a battle will be discussed.
