Spectating ongoing games - unwanted?

Hey people, I like to watch epic Red Alert battles (because I am not so good and my mouse is very bad) and lately I've noticed that I can spectate if I join an open game and choose "Spectate". However, sometimes I get kicked and sometimes everybody quits the game. Is it not done to spectate? Can spe...

I think you two are right: it would requires a supercomputer, like the ones from IBM, to get a grasp on what is going on and how to properly respond. Not only that, it would require alot of code to actually respond well. Here are some suggestions that may make the AI already a bit tougher (without c...

Impossible AI?

How difficult would it be to program an impossable Ai, one that wins 99,99% of all games? It may not cheat: other prices, advantages or unfair use of the radar. It can ofcourse be streamlined very efficiently. In chess the engines beat humans easily, even World Champ Magnus Carlsen will only draw af...

Ive let bots battle eachother and noted some things that happened. Ofcourse different maps or opponents will give different results but this could give insights on the AI. I share my thoughts, but they are your bots, so pick and use the findings you like. At some point I tought it was good to note w...

Gonna let some bots play eachother. I really hope other people who understand AI even better than you will chip in and help you tweaking. If you guys want me to test the bots for certain aspects then let me know! Glad if I can help in any way.

Well hope you will continu adding to this project as well. These bots are a great addition IMO. I have only tried some of the RA AIs as that is the only game I play :) Some feedback on AI, I dont know how hard the suggestions are to implement, but just some thoughts: :Infantry AI - FUN EDIT: althoug...

How do I watch these replays?

I have downloaded a replay and would like to watch it. Ive searched for a folder where to put it in, but couldnt find it. Als searched the FAQ and all, but without result. I do know how I can view my own replays in OpenRA (menu: extra > replays).

Thanks for help :)

Also I think there should be a guide with images explaining the several fun features of OpenRA. For instance: - how to play against strangers and friends - how to watch your own replay and how to watch other's - how to create a map, and play on it - a guide on the available resources - ..... other s...

Share OpenRA on facebookgroups

Just an idea to spread the word on OpenRA. On facebook there are often groups where people offer free stuff for anyone to claim. As a joke you could offer Red Alert 2, C&C Tiberian Dawn ans Dune2k for FREE. It can be taken away from here: http://www.openra.net/download/ Alot of people have played th...

AI Challenges

One thing that I love about Red Alert is the AI. i love to see how crazy it can become and still handle them. Usually not so good because I am an extremely mediocre player. I am curious what the good players can achieve. So I created some challenges. Feel free to create your own challenges. Anyone w...

Im going to test it in a couple hours, but I thought I tried without succes. It would be great though if we could download a mappack with, say, the top ...
