[Idea] Friendly A.I ?

Post by darkshadow1809 »

Hi there,

As I have build a couple of modpacks and have gone through a LOAD of mods. I seem to be missing a general one...

Friendly... Biters?

How about being able to experiment on them and make them friendly? However the nest that you keep needs to be fed! otherwise it will grow weak and will no longer spawn your own forces! Yes thats right your OWN forces! you create an army to fight back the biters! Plop down multiple nests of your own! Why not!? Make those little rats work for you instead! Mwahahaha!

But in all seriousness if some people have some pointers for me that would be great ! :)

1. How to create friendly A.I
2. In X meters within friendly nest = enemy nest = Friendly biters attack
3. How its possible to where you "feed the nest you have" with a certain entity to make it breed. something as in a assembly machine needs > that much for > that item you want. but then it breeds AI creatures which it spits out automaticly.
4. Upgraded nests as in it spawns automaticly without resources needed up to a maximum amount of them.
5. Make your own mineral resource :D (To feed them ofcourse)

If anyone would drop me some pointers to these following things i will gladly attempt at making my own A.I mod which means you can make your own army to fight back the bugs!

Dytech, Hardcorio & Dynastopia compability will be added! Along with any other of the following mods that might bring different enemy A.I so it will engage onto any A.I from any mod!

Hi,

FYI, there is already a mod that allows you to spawn "friendly" biter/netst/worms.
You can fint it here : https://forums.factorio.com/forum/vie ... pvp#p66197

It's pvp (thus multiplayer) oriented, but maybe can you see with Fish if you need help/advice for your own mod.
