Yes, I know, it’s a stupid title. But I wanted to have the lousiest acronym I could, and EINS seems to work fine for that. Bet Schmatzler will like it…
So. I said I would make a mod to make the AI better pilots, and I’m going to do that now. As in, I’m going to do it as soon as I post this. I’ll probably finish before anyone even reads this, since it’s going to be a simple loop checking for AI not max, then a function call setting it to max, but whatever.
I figured I’d create a thread in order to call it to your attention, as well as receive feedback/death threats resulting from people using it.Be aware, this mod will require Multimod. (Not like anyone doesn’t have that one installed… 😛 )

Very little about the game is not known to me. Any questions you got, throw them at me. 🙂Couldn’t see no edit button, so I’m making a reply instead.
WOW I forgot how much harder Pog is than Unity’s C#! It will take somewhat longer than I though to make the mod. Should be done by the end of the day unless chores bite me in the butt. Plenty of time for you all to notice. 🙂–IronDuke
P.S. There is something inherently exciting about seeing all the functions in the Pog scripting SDK; kinda makes me feel like diving into modding for weeks on end. :S

First mod I’ve ever completed, woot! 😀–IronDuke

Alrighty, I’m done.
I’m attaching it because I can’t seem to find an upload button in the downloads area…
Enjoy everyone!

Very little about the game is not known to me. Any questions you got, throw them at me. 🙂Thanks! I’ll see when I can try it out. If you need anything else to do, I thought of something I think would add to the game. There is a strange absence of Heavy Corvettes in Instant Action. Adding these in would raise the bar to a more realistic level, especially when flying the Heavy Corvette.

I noticed that as well; they have a hardcoded list of ships to use, which doesn’t include very many of those in the game. But I posted a little surprise just now. 🙂 I think that’ll answer you well.

I now remember looking into the script system of I-war a little bit, and I found that I cannot open .pkg files correctly. I little insight into this would be helpful.
Never mind, I downloaded the scripting SDK and found these are the compiled code files.

Ziss iss ekzacktly what I want, jawohl! B)
I added the mod to the downloads list 🙂 I doubt I’ll ever use it seriously, I’m already getting my arse kicked heavily with the AI at 80%. :dry:
Space. The final frontier.

About that, I wanted to ask: Does the mod apply for the normal game or just for the skirmish stuff? Meaning, will the missions get harder?
If you are in space, the mod is on, and AI ships exist within 400km, then it applies to them. So yes, normal game, instant action, even scenarios if the mod is on. 🙂

Very little about the game is not known to me. Any questions you got, throw them at me. 🙂It depends on the observer. In my case, I didn’t notice it as being more taxing on my skill, but it did take longer to kill them and I took more damage from them. At one point I stupidly stopped my Petrel right in front of a patcom for one second and almost died.
Another point it took almost a full minute to kill a Marauder even with twin neutrons simply because he was so good a dodging.–IronDuke
