Anyone that is good with AI- I need your help! Please!!!

What do you want the AI to do?

Here 2 sprites are set. One is controlled by the Circle Pad input, and the other is controlled by the AI. The AI here is programmed to follow the player.

use Variable=RND(Max val) to randomize AI decisions.

I need to know what type of AI you want. What should the AI do? Different AI systems are good for different things.

I need to do a CTF [capture the flag] AI that has 1-5 bots each team excluding the players. It will be for my pretty big game ELUDE. I already have the multiplayer ctf and a tag AI down, but this is the major thing that is delaying the beta 1.7 update.

What I have in mind is: The game is played on a map viewed from top. Goal is for capturing a flag. AI 10 max count You can use the follow-me AI system to get AIs to go to the flag. The follow me AI is what you need. Correct?

A mix of follow me and follow flag, something like: If player is 3 or less blocks away from bot (and bot is on your half of the map) then the bot will run away or keep going for the goal. If you go on their side, they charge after you.

I'll get right to work!

Thanks! I will surely put you in the credits!!!

Sorry, another q, which side is the player side?

Here, you can download CTF and turn one player (the alien) to an ai and add more so you can choose how much enemy bots, how much friendly bots, and once you finish then you can give me the key and I'll add it into ELUDE.

That's even better! You won't be dissapointed!

Hmm, I think sprites arebeasier to computerize. OK to use sprites?

Typo; arebeasier -> are easier

hmm... well the game ELUDE is text based ( Which you know) and I was going to make a sprite mod but it's fine if you do sprites I guess.

Good. I'll get right on it!

Um, how 'bout I give you the AI coding, and you upload the game! I'll upload coding soon!

What this needs is BG! Someone on Miiverse taught me how 2 do it!

I'm really good with BG. I can teach you about BG use from this post. OK to use BG in CTF, Sheepy?

Sheepy, does this game even have credits? It doesn't even have a title screen! All games need a title screen (I can help u with that.)!

Is this your game?!

I think so, but that is ELUDE 2. If you check out ELUDE, that game is much, MUCH larger [about 900 lines of code] I just made the CTF a seperate thing so I could add it in later and not get as confused.

ELUDE 2 is just a demo, I haven't really been working on that. I think I will start.

So, again, do you want BG in your game instead of plain darkness? It would be much more interesting, becavse it would have some awesome, vivid graphics! ;›

When I'm done, I will upload the data you need on this folder. You can then get this data and copy it to your CTF downloadable game cartridge and upload your game. Feel free to make any changes to your copy of this ROM to fit your game! Also, you should start a series on this and take ELUDE to a new level, and you will be the official developer, as I make the AI coding and BG layouts!

So, this is what I have so far, do u like it?

In ELUDE there is a background already added. And that background doesn't fit with ELUDE, so... maybe if you really want to, you can keep working on that or you can just keep the black background and I can change it later.

Black is the screen itself, not a background. How else could the sprite detect what side it's on? Also, BG would make your game colorful and just about make your game come to life!

And with BG, you can make each side a different color.

Element, not color.

The ctf program is NOT the same in Elude, I changed it when I added it to the game. The background is cobblestone brick on one side, and lava on the other.

Sure, on it!

This is the sides element: player side grass, enemy side snow. Those elements look similar.

This is a 2p game, dude!! The enemy controlled by ABXY buttons!

I know, but I need it in single player.

Sure! On it!

So... How is it?

Working on it... but I lost my charger again. I had to post this on my WiiU! I'll tell you when I find it!! :(

Is that is why you've been gone lately? When you find it, don't rush to finish the program for me, I could wait awile.

couldn't find...mom bought me new charger. I don't suppose what to do when I find the old charger, though...

You do realize that I'm making lava one of the obstacles! I can't make one side complete lava!

Hey Aiden, it's been awhile. I must of forgot aboutcha or something lol. Thanks for your help, although I didn't use it. I kinda do need some help though, with something else.
