OpenRA

Fransbots 20250702! First of all thanks everyone here at the forum and on Discord for helping me out, I love you. Major changes since previous version; -One more bot added "Fleet AI", focusing on the navy. -All bots do more or less navy now -in order to counter the "Fleet AI". -Aircraft do smarter c...

Hi Mechanicat, Massive +respect Thanks for the kind words. May i recommend you Notepad++, its very convenient to use. ..I use "Visual studio" now but I cannot get it work with yaml even if I have downloaded the extension. Ahh, thats rather very clever. Nah, the SquadManagerBotModule is so strange. I...

lots of odd things going on with these bots. there are errors: actors being listed for the wrong types, like Dtrk being given as AirUnitsTypes for the Air ai, fix, atek, stek being declared as ProductionTypes for BaseBuilderBotModule@horde, was they meant to be ProtectionTypes: instead ?, reference...

Nice to see you are still updating these

Thanks abc..

I understand it might be some fibbling with files as you cannot play online while have the bots installed.

How to add these bots to a specific map?

Fransbot 20250702 Additional bots for OpenRA Red Alert 20250330. In addition to the standard ”Rush AI, Normal, Turtle AI, and Navy AI,” you get 6 more bots to fight against. Battle bots, which use engineers, thieves, medics, technicians, and even Tanya! All bots have distinct build orders and attack...

Are there a possibility for the bots to not include units that does not have any ammo left in the attack and protection squad? Is there any possibility to "disband" a squad and let the bots to rearrange the rush attack squads? Can units/actors retreat to the service depot based on health level?

Hi,

thanks for efforts on developing openra and mods. I would like to know if is possible to use this mod with the latest version game.

Thank You,
Regards

Fabio.

Hello, Yes that is no problem. However you will not be able to play online. so make a back up copy of the folders first.

...next step in the project is to play around with the actors. It might be possible to continue to improve the bots if the actors has a priority list of targets. But different actors must have different priority based on the bot "personality". How do I solve this?

Wow! New version of OpenRA!

I notice over 90 download of my little bot project. Way more than I expected. Hope you enjoyed it.

Question, anyone interested in an update with the new version of OpenRa?

Question to all you modders out there; Does it work to add LUA scripts to the Ai-yaml files like it does to the map files? To take these Ai to the next level I need to have custom "rules", like having aircrafts attack/avoid certain units.

Time for another update. The zip file in the original post is updated. Changes; -In general; Air, Horde and Base do now build mechanics, I have noted that mechanics if stays in the base occasionally repair harvesters coming nearby. Pretty neat and fun. Air and Horde also build 1-2 extra construction...

Instructions how to install the bots have changed. Replace the mod.yaml in the "C:\Program Files\OpenRA\mods\ra" folder and then add the bot files in the "C:\Program Files\OpenRA\mods\ra\rules". The bots are now updated with following changes. -Air; *Aircrafts tweaked a little more in order to not d...

Hello, Fransbots 20231220 Time for another update of my bots! General changes; Infantry, Rocketeers and air units have slight different target priorities for some overall better attack priority handling. With this changes even the vanilla-bots has been tougher, unsure how it effect the campaign game...
