[RA2] AI doesn't use LCRF on water maps

[Kilkakon]

I have been editing the AI files, and telling the AI to use landing craft to carry tanks. It all works fine on A Path Beyond but on a river map the AI won't consider the AITriggerType.

Can anyone offer suggestions?

It might be unable to place a shipyard to get LCRF... Or possibly they are discarding any ground based taskforces on assumption there is no way for them to reach your base?

[Kilkakon]

There's definetly enough room for the shipyard... 3/4 of the map is water. It built about 14 destroyers, 2 aegis and 4 battleships and destroyed my navalyard.

Taskforce: 4 grizzly + 1 landing craft.

Well, if said trigger and everything works on one map and doesn't on the other, maybe you should compare the maps?

Maps can include AI information - maybe the second map includes AI data that interferes with your script? e.g. overwrites a handler you use?

I'm testing on Random Maps and one I made esp. for this reason. No AI tweaking in the map file. I fear to say this but I fear Bobbingabout is right.

If I run it at speed 6 with superweapons off, I never even get shot at. (and I do build my base.)

I probably will bite the bullet and give the team stacks of various planes and jumpjet units. Hopefully that will help.
