Nerfaddict's Suggestions: "ai Improvement" + "Don't trust anyone on April 1st!"

29.4k Nerfaddict  4.1 years ago

Suggestion No.1:
"Ai improvements"

Speaker: "Nerfaddict"
"So both modes of AI in simpleplanes I feel could use some improvements, Particularly the Aggressive AI. The reason I say this is because of the way both ai react to hostility."

Normal "Default" reaction:
Becomes more of an introvert than me

Normal "Aggressive" reaction:
All Hell breaks loose without provoking (comparable to me when "Inferior SE" activates)

"So what I'm suggesting is this."

Improved "Default" reaction:
Depends on the type of hostile response

"Guns":
Evasion with the purpose of self defense

"Missiles":
Release flares (if equiped) and evades depending on the location of where the missile is.

Improved "Aggressive" reaction:

General Improvements:
-self preservation is taken into consideration
-may use abnormal maneuvers if the plane will allow it (ie. pigpen's ability to peform the cobra manuever)

Scenario1: normal Merge approach
Reaction: Won't attack until after the merge. Will act as normal "Aggressive" Ai from then on.

Reaction2-1.1: if the opponent (you in this case) starts the first part of missile lock (ai sees this as "Warning"), it may start releasing a few countermeasures, 10% chance of breaking off

Reaction2-1.2: if the opponent (you in this case) starts the second part of missile lock (ai sees this as "Locked"), It WILL start releasing Countermeasures, 90% chance of breaking off

Reaction2-1.3: if the opponent (you in this case) starts the third and final part of missile lock (firing off a missile), ai Will break off as hard as the plane will allow (up to a point) while releasing flares in a similar fashion to the "AC-130".

Scenario2: both you and ai are in the same line of travel
2-1: Ai in front

Reaction: will try to get behind you, possibly using abnormal maneuvers (ie. pigpen's ability to peform the cobra manuever) in the process.

2-2: Ai in rear

Reaction: Will start firing gun (if equiped) while waiting for it's own missile lock.

End of Suggestion No.1

Suggestion No.2:

"Don't trust anyone on April 1st"
As it says, today is the day all new information is questionable in terms of reliability. So unless you can try them out yourself, take them with a grain of salt.

    @TrislandianAlliance it works around 300-400 mph with stock load. Airbrakes and pull up for about 1 second. It should slow you down by 100-150 mph
