AI Modification and Track IR

[Brentw]

Has anyone ever been able to modify the AI in SF2?

 

I know within the mission editor and in the completed mission, changes can be made to increase the experience and training of enemy pilots but what about the core AI structure?

 

I also just bought Track IR 5 and it works very well with SF2.

I disable the Z axis so objects appear at their true size and distance.

 

Many many thanks to all the modders here.

 

I'm currenlty flying the Israel extension pack and it is thrilling.

What exactly Is for you modding the AI?

[Brentw]

Hi Stratos,

 

I was thinking of a mod to make the AI more aggressive and following through during an attack.

you can tailor individual aircraft by adding certain line to it's data ini. For example, from the F-86 Sabres in the KAW pack..

 

 

[AIData]
MinAIQuality=Veteran
MaxAIQuality=Ace

 

 

[DogfightVeteran]
LookoutAngle=270
DefensiveAngle=120
ChanceDefensiveTurn=75
ChanceBreakTurn=100
ChanceHardTurn=100
ChanceTurnDirection=100
ChanceContinue=25
ChanceCheckNewTarget=50
ChanceUseVertical=100
FightWithoutAmmo=1
MaxCannonRange=800
OptimalCannonRange=300
MinCannonRange=50
;MaxRollForGunAttack=180
CannonBurstLengthShort=0.5
CannonBurstLengthLong=1.75
;MaxRudderForGunAttack=0.09
;MaxRudderForManeuver=0.25

 

[DogfightAce]
LookoutAngle=270
MaxCannonRange=800
OptimalCannonRange=300
MinCannonRange=50
;MaxRollForGunAttack=180
CannonBurstLengthShort=0.5
CannonBurstLengthLong=1.75
;MaxRudderForGunAttack=0.09
;MaxRudderForManeuver=0.25

 

but these adjusments must be made to ALL aircraft's data inis that you'd want to "adjust"

 

 

NOTE: edited to remove the F-86 specific flight values

I was wondering the same thing! Good info! Thanks Wrench...

Those values under "AIData", are specifically tailored for the F-86 flight models, to discourage the AI from pulling past the stall.  Using them, say, for an F-15, will hamper the AI's ability to use that model's higher AoA capabilities.

Many Thanks Wrench!!

 

I was thinking of trying them in WWII planes for your Battle of Britain Terrain and the planes during that time period.

 

Best Regards,
