Can you implement Swarm AI

Post by Barfussmann »

I have just a quick question.
Can you implement AI new or change existing AI?
Because i want to try make AI with algorithm base of Swarm AIs.

You can't change behaviour of individual units. However, you can give them orders and put them into groups (which you can then give orders to instead of individual units)

Basically, a large scale strategic AI is viable, while a tactical AI governing individual biters is... less so. Not impossible, but it'd require some hack-ish solutions.
