Myk's AI 3.5

Pretty good start here. As it disposes of the default T pretty easily, here's an exe of it vs the Entropy Prime AIs. I used the new Ai vs AI replays for this.

Spoiler:[spoiler]Colosseum: Rocky T > Myk Z
The early muta harass takes a toll on Rocky T, which doesn't seem to have that much antiair. Unforunately, the Z softlocks during the late game, and its lurkers cannot stop the masses of tanks as well as the terran expansions.

Python: Rocky T < Myk Z
Mutas quickly deal damage to Rocky T's expansion. Rocky T cannot stop the lurker ling follow up.

Heartbreak Ridge: Raynor T > Myk Z
Raynor T's rush is extremely hard to for a Zerg AI to hold off here. Getting my Protoss to beat it was already painful enough! Maybe more lings are needed

Byzantium: Ashara T > Myk Z
Similar to above, though the game lasts longer as this AI's rushes are not as strong

Tau Cross: Racine T < Myk Z
Racine's early m+m rush is deflected by the sunkens; quickly gets run over by just mutalisks.[/spoiler]

Removed... check for newer versions!

Thanks for the replies, guys!

@Archon_Wing: Thanks for including that file, I'll probably run it through a bunch of replays when I get back home. Is there any way to change which AI it will face on each map? I know I wanted to see if other Zerg were any good on Heartbreak Ridge since mine is such a disaster, but I couldn't get it to roll any of the more aggressive scripts that I had hoped for.

@bajadulce: Thanks for the warm, weird welcome!

I need to force you guys to play some SC games with me or something.

@Nobody
I'm going to take my train(#, X) commands out of in between my attack_add(#, X) style blocks. Multiple attack_add(#, X) types seem to mix the units up as it makes them while train(#, X) is blocking, so it'll sit there making my lurkers and then my zerglings and then attack, instead of just making everything all at once, resources and supply permitting....

Source of this info:

It may help stamp out some softlocking issues beyond my totally broken end of the main thread. Thank gourd it either wins or loses way ahead of Hive tech, so far...

Hi Myk,
Welcome to the forums!

I've downloaded your Zerg AI. I'll play against it as Terran later today and try to post some replays.

The triggers removed me. :0 Why do they act so wacky? I have included a version with the fixed triggers.

And here's a replay. I was a bit concerned that the AI took a long time to build lings-- would have been very vulnerable to early rushes. However, it did build a very strong defense. Usually I test the zerg AIs by doing a 2medic/firebat marine rush after a fast expand. A good AI has to hold that rush off. The tech came kinda late; spire needs to go down asap when lair finishes. The harassment was pretty effective actually, unfortunately the comp didn't really expand and ending up mining itself out.

Contrary to popular opinion, I have not given up on this!

In fact, here's a small taste of things to come:...Pffft. We don't want a small taste, we want a full version! Update in first post!
