Formations

[NovaTitan]

Is it possible to get/make a mod where there are block, rectangle, square, and complex formations for the Battle AI in custom battles?

I heard that it wasn't possible because of the AI taking too long to form up and that they cannot charge in formation.

There was a mod like this for the original M&B, I don't know if it's been ported or if it still works in Warband.

 

[NovaTitan]

Yeah, I was wondering if it would work on MandB Warband.

Dunno if the AI uses it, but there is the motomataru's Formations kit...

But possible is, in 1257AD the AI uses them. Dont know what kit (or if his own code) othr uses, tough.

Yeah, as some dude above me said it's already implemented. They're really primitive though.

I've tested motomataru's formation kit and it works. Even the AI issues of older versions have been solved, so the AI finally uses formations.

If you search the posts of the user motomataru, you'll find it.
Similarly, if you go onto M&B Repository, you'll find it.

You'll also find them included in Brytenwalda, PBOD (and Native mod compilations that include it), and heavily edited by Treebeard in PoP.

Always, always search before digging up a near-six month old thread to ask a question you could answer yourself by looking around.
