Well I have a problem. I want my computer controlled attackers to be smart enough to use their spells during the boss waves, but If I run the ai scripts then the computer is always having wounded units flee. Is there a way to modify the ai script simply so that they don't flee? Or will I have to trigger order the boss units to cast their spells according to events and conditions?
 
Use a scripted method then, Its easier and under more control. You can make it react depending on its HP value or amount of Mana it has for the time being. And poses more fun for the players as you can try to anticipate their actions and force them to think when fighting the boss.
 
I can make the script for you all you need to tell me is what spells they have.. ect.
 
What's wrong with healing? :p

Anyway, tried the "units / groups flee" options yet?

If you mean the checkable option under the Object Editor unit fields then yes. If you arn't referring to that then I'm not sure what you mean.

It just that when a guard tower shoots the creep it does a 180 and flees. Or when my boss is highly out numbered by weak units it flees. Or when it reaches like 20% life it just runs the rest of its lifespan getting attacked in the back. That all happens when I use the Run Melle AI scripts.

Sure I can trigger order bosses but if I do that then it will act the same every time unless maybe I use random numbers that change conditions. Although if there is a simple fix I'd rather not "play" my bosses. But hey if not then I'll get triggering!

    News portal has been retired. Main page of site goes to Headline News forum now
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I am working on getting access to the old news portal under a different URL for those that would rather use that for news before we get a different news view.

    Easily done

    https://www.thehelper.net/pages/news/ is a link to the old news portal - i will integrate it into the interface somewhere when i figure it out
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Need to try something
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hopefully this won't cause problems.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hmm
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I have converted the Headline News forum to an Article type forum. It will now show the top 20 threads with more detail of each thread.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    See how we like that.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do not see a way to go past the 1st page of posts on the forum though
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is OK though for the main page to open up on the forum in the view it was before. As long as the portal has its own URL so it can be viewed that way I do want to try it as a regular forum view for a while
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Yeah I'm not sure what the deal is with the pagination.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    It SHOULD be there so I think it might just be an artifact of having an older style.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I switched it to a "Standard" article forum. This will show the thread list like normal, but the threads themselves will have the first post set up above the rest of the "comments"
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I don't really get that article forum but I think it is because I have never really seen it used on a multi post thread
  • Ghan Ghan:
    RpNation makes more use of it right now as an example: https://www.rpnation.com/news/
