Default AI Settings Txt

I down loaded the Cardassian empire and ship set and the ai_settings.txt file is missing a few lines. Can I just use any ai_settings.txt file ?

I also downloaded the Klingon Ship Set and it doesn't have any ai_settings.txt file. Is that ok ?

Also if I am hosting a PBW game do I have to have all of the Race and Ship sets of the players in the game ?

Default Re: AI Settings Txt

SE4 will use the default AI files if those files are not included in a particular race. There is no need to copy one into the race folders and rename it.

Everyone in the game should have all of the ship sets that are in use in the PBW game.

Missing lines in the file means that the AI was written before Gold came out. Instructions for converting such AIs are linked in my sig.

Yeah, and a missing file just means the author was lazy.

The Klingon Version 1.76 file does not have the file at all. Can I just use one from another race ? Is this just important when letting the computer controll the race ? Thanks for the help guys.

As I said, SE4 will use the default AI_Settings.txt file if that file is missing from a race.
