RA1 radar & map hack Options

[ma1kel]

I'm searching for a map hack and radar hack for RA1, I want to emulate the multiplayer AI of the game in OpenRA a bit, but I need to have better info on how it works to do so. Could anyone give me some directions to these hacks?

Yeah, I'd like to have at least something as basic as RA2/YR has. With the idea that you can just set a Harvester Dump credit multiplier (i.e. cheating) so you can write task forces. Then make a lot of the AI configurable (e.g. attack priority per taskforce) and incrementing this every release, adding complexity and better performance against human players.

I'll have to write quite a few functions and logic before I can start beginning with that, as there's a reason the multiplayer AI is called "HackyAI" in OpenRA.

I find some things in the TS AI system better than than in RA2/YR. For example, in TS the AI's taskforces focus their fire, but in RA2 all the taskforce's units have their own targets.

With the idea that you can just set a Harvester Dump credit multiplier (i.e. cheating) so you can write task forces.

Please also take a look at the TS/RA2 difficulty/cheat system, which I find awesome (the key "MultiplayerAICM" and the [Easy], [Normal] and [Difficult] sections in the Rules.ini).
