Stronghold crusader maps that improved ai Patch#

The Sultana focuses more on Assassins than before, and she also gets a mix of all the arabian units besides slaves. The Shah will get Horse Archers and Sasanid Knights. These units aren't built in bulk though, they're meant to suppliment his men at arms squads. The Rat will buy swords, shields, and pikes for him to build swordsmen/knights/pikemen/rangers. Listing all the changes would take ages, but I'll give a few examples : Their attacks growth is rapid, and they build new units. It really changes the AI and makes them extremely hard to fight. It's on the community discord group, just pm me. Simply copy the assets.v into your main game directory inside the assets folder.Д«asically, you just copy paste the asset.v file. It's not cheat gold ( probably), but the logic might be too effecive in the AI's hand. Again to repeat the above point, gold income might be too high due to the buffs in market logic that the AI is doing. THey also manage their taxation by the second, which makes them very efficient at raising gold quikcly. The reason it's hard to assess, is due to the fact the AI sells their products faster, and gain gold quicker. I doubt that, as I made tests to make sure this isn't the case, but maybe it is ( my tests could be wrong and the AI does get secret cheat gold after all). The AI gold income is maybe still wacky due to the fact the AI might have hardcoded higher income. This is just a mere project to see what I can do with the AI in terms of scripting. Obviously balancing is pretty nigh non-existent. There are bound to be issues with 1 or more AI NPCs to have issues. For More Details regarding AI Character specific changes, read the changelog included with the patch. All AI NPCs have their army size and attacks increased. This usually lasts up to 60 seconds during a siege. They will maximize popularity, and give bribes to increase rate of troop recruits. This is enabled during large attacks, which allows the AI to constantly pump out units if they have a good amount of gold reserves. Added new behavior which is the 'Fast Army Training Frequency'. All AI NPCs will purchase more seige units ( Expect to see a nice number of husslewagons and mantlets). All AI NPCs harass faster, and stronger, with faster army size progression. European AI NPCs will purchase weapons faster to assemble attack forces. European AI NPCs will now build 1 extra Quarry and 1-2 extra Iron Mill ( if they build them already.) Arabian AI NPCs will now build 1-2 extra Quarries. They will no longer stock up on raw materials but opt to sell them, sell food as well, and maintain high popularity to increase gold income. Arabian AI NPCs market behavior is drastically improved. All AI NPCs will purchase 20 of every food type in order to increase taxation. All AI NPCs will purchase wood if they are running low. Building them will still deplete their golds, but if they can't afford it for a siege they'll get them regardless. Unfortunately though it seems that Seige equipment purchasing for the AI is not connected with gold, and can be built regardless. Besides Stronghold Crusaders 1 also used this cheat. While this is a cheat, it is less blatant than the former 2. Not everything is purchased for a lower price, just core stuff including weapons. This script does not require barracks/merc post so it is kinda anoying that I couldn't completely remove it. ( Previously they spawned 12-25 units magically). While I could not remove the 'Emergency unit spawn at lord' script, due to it crashing the game otherwise, I did attempt to reduce those spawns to only 1 Archer/Arabian Archer/Crossbowman depending on the character. I generally dislike cheats like this as they are very blatant. THIS was the thing that kept giving the AI gold despite them being starved out.

Removed the extra 300 gold x Character specific Gold Multiplier per 25 seconds. All the AIs will give you a nice challenge in different ways.yes even the Rat. Something worth to point out that with the AI changes, there is no longer an 'easy' NPC. Other stuff are unfortunately hardcodded. While I haven't found a way to edit castles themselves, I did find a way to alter AI Market logic, unit rosters, timings, purchases, defense and seiges.
