Captain He-Man Posted July 30, 2001 Report Share Posted July 30, 2001 I was just thinking about BCM today (yes, i randomly drift off and think about computer games ), and I was struck with all the AI code that there must be in this puppy..I know a bit of basic AI programming stuff, and all of it is no simple 2 lines (inside joke ) answer.SC, if you don't mind, can you say how big the AI code is (in lines or pages)?And also, what kind of stuctures do you use? Like BSTs, linked lists... that sort of stuff. Capt. HM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supreme Cmdr Posted July 31, 2001 Report Share Posted July 31, 2001 Hundreds of thousands of lines of code.And am too busy to delve into the inner workings of my several AI engines. Wait for my book [ 07-31-2001: Message edited by: Supreme Cmdr ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain He-Man Posted July 31, 2001 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2001 d00d!!! When's is comming out?Capt. HM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gomez Posted July 31, 2001 Report Share Posted July 31, 2001 My immediate guess is, he uses classes to create most everything. Linked lists are also kind of a given. Can't live without those puppies... It's entirely possible that he uses some sort of database reference system as well. And thus a hashed file type database. Just guesses.But as he said...wait for his book. Now that I know he's writing one, I am waiting for it.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 31, 2001 Report Share Posted July 31, 2001 quote: Wait for my book The movie will be out first!!The AI is the SC's greatest triumph, and Biggest Secret, If you think that he will write a book about it, well, I got a great deal on a bridge, wanna buy it?

Supreme Cmdr Posted July 31, 2001 Report Share Posted July 31, 2001 uhm, I think I mentioned in my latest dev diary that I was writing a book? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 31, 2001 Report Share Posted July 31, 2001 Sorry,Thought the book was going to include a history of the game, a bit about you and how you got started, the craziness that you went through with Take 2 and others, an explanation of the basics of the AI and what it is capable of etc, etc, and of course BCM to it's final conclusion of going gold, but I wasn't sure about you telling all the internal codes of the AI in the book as well, thought that you would want to keep that to yourself. My apologies if I mislead anyone or was way off base. [ 07-31-2001: Message edited by: Jaguar ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
