AI for Orbital Wars

I'm new to modding and was tinkering with an AI for Orbital Wars so the AI builds orbital units.



I created aiarchtype-orbwar to build an orbital factory, but the SCU just walks around in circles. Is it possible the footprint of the factory is too big and SCU just can't find a place to build it? I'm using the Asteroid map. If he just moves outside his landing zone he'll find a spot to place it.



By the way, I have modified



aibrainplan.lua

basetemplatesorbwar.lua

buildingtemplatesorbwar.lua

aiarchetype-orbwar.lua

aitypes.lua



Any other I should look at?|||could it be the the footprint is bigger than the build range?|||Where do I find build range?|||that's something in the SCU's *.bp file.|||orbital wars was an vanilla SC mod yeah?|||I don't have FA if thats what you mean.|||It means its a bit hard for me to help as I dont have vanilla installed.



Whats the link to the Orbital wars mod... if its interesting I might give it a go.|||Hard for me to read since its in French but you'll find a link to the vault.

Im not really into new unit mods as they tend to unbalance the game but if you ask the mods author they can make an AI easily with Sorians mod as it allows custom units to be built (just needs one file to set out the unit IDs in AI format).
