Getting AI to work

[Tresham]

I have a map where I'm attempting to make a computer opponent playing Orcs strictly build only the Fel Orc versions of everything. The Great Hall makes only Fel Orc Peons, and the Fel Orc Peons build Fel Orc Burrows in place of regular Burrows.

Well, I've gone and replaced everything where it should, saying who can build what and do what, but...they don't want to do it. The peons will mine gold and build an Altar of Storms, but that's it. What the heck am I not doing/doing wrong?

You have to creat your own Fel Orc AI (since you can't get the one used in the campaign)
You have to use Jass and sl Jasscraft (don't worry,isn't hard)
Here a tutorial

Lol, I'm doing exactly the same, I got some problems with the orcs too, The problem that you have is that I think you quit the Trolls from the barracks, if you did that then you should replace them with a unit, couse the AI won't do anything without them, Hope this help .

I don't think the problem come from here.AIs don't work depending in the units they habe but they must be scripted.

Hoof, this is a much bigger undertaking than I had expected. Time to dig in.

After reading the tutorial, it says something about constant names for units in the scripts to make them spawn. Where the heck can I find that? The example he uses in the tutorial say "MOON_WELL" for a Moon Well. Is it gonna be the same for everything, then?

Yes
But I think you should remplace constants name with rawcode.Open object editor and use Ctrl+B to see rawcodes of buildings/units/abilities etc...
