AI in the newest version

Hi,

I've not played WinSPMBT seriously in the last 1.5 years...has the AI now been a little improved?

Thanks

which looks quite promising...

I'd like to create small-scaled scenarios for the Vietnam conflict.

Does anybody know good resources (online/books etc.), which I could use as templates? It would be good if they would include...

Re: Waypoints? What Waypoints

How does the game engine treat helos on high-altitude...has it the same cross-sections like a small fighter? Not that they now get easy targets for radar-guided SAMs. I guess masts are not simulated,...

Re: WinSPMBT Android?

You cannot just port WinSPMBT to a tablet PC version. The whole GUI would need to be done from scrach, also other stuff like I/O. And with that legacy code line it would be just a nightmare.

Setting formation to AI control

Sometimes - if a formation has to travel a long distance or if it is a very big scenario (I do not like micro-management), I like using setting formation-waypoints and putting it under AI control.

modern era tactical stuff

Most new tactical wargames (I mean it in general not related to Shrapnel) seems to have a WWII set.

WinSpmbt is really good but on the other hand it is 'sad' that a game, developed in 1996, is...

Re: randomize scenario?

Thx for your input.

The campaign trick + together using % change reinforcing should be sufficient, I guess.

randomize scenario?

Hi,

I am not experienced concerning scenario design but I am curious: Are there some (perhaps not so obvious) ways to randomize a scenario - so that you can actually play your own dog food ;).

Re: WinSPMBT v5.5-- NOW AVAILABLE

from my side, also a big thank you! The reduced cpu consumption is really helpful, playing on a netbook :).

also, the SAM and scout-improvements are nice!

Re: purchase routines

In a stand-alone battle you can set the buy up to allow zero, or a specific number of flights, or the default (XXX). Long campaigns always use XXX.

Re: purchase routines

A follow-up-question: Can the probability that the AI buys planes/helis be influenced by the user (via picklist etc.?)...especially for lower battle points (<10000)?

Re: ms-dos version?

There's another solution, although it requires that your pc is running: Using of a remote desktop connection client on the android device. They also seem to support sound.

the main issue is that the game consumes a lot of cpu usage when it is idle, which reduces the time until my netbook must visit its power station ;).
