Two lines call range of 1-12 out of range. This may have to do with an error in the ai unit purchase routine. IIRC in 1.6 it is set at range 1-5 with a variance of 25 %. If the range was changed to 1-8 or 1-9 a 25% variance would put it out of range as stated.

Errr I'm sorry Otto but I don't understand what this means xD Is that out of range causing the fatal AI error? I didn't edit any lines except what you and jojo have instructed me to.

How has your quest for Panzer battles coding been working?

Jojo is fishing til about the middle of October. :)

Heh Robotnik When I make the most innocuous of changes to code (one at a time ), and copy them into EF AI folder I get a Fatal ai error. What are the proper command line parmeters to use?

Well Otto as you can see the progression of my discussion with jojo on page 4, he gave me some files to overwrite, and also with regards to reward units. I followed his instructions but I'm still getting Fatal AI error. Asked for jojo's help but he didn't respond so I've been waiting since.

Why is he keeping quiet in this thread? He will only respond to PMs from now on? I didn't know this. I thought if I made this thread then other people could help give me some useful input if they were aware of any information. Didn't know jojo would be the single person to be my salvation and I would rely on his help all this while.

So will he come back here or should I just PM him what I posted on page 4 but he didn't respond to? I'm also worried that he might be busy coding new stuff for the EF Community and the last thing he needs is an extra headache from 1 person wanting to customise his own AI experience and spamming his inbox.

Hey,
sorry for keeping quiet. It is true that i have a lot of projects and stuff to code, also i have new job so i come few times a day on forum to see if there is something interesting. I did not had much time to resolve you problem but i will try today to go through all our conversation and i will test files that i sent to you. Also i saw some AI errors in internal version that need to be resolved.

I will respond dont worry am just so busy, also i tried to setup notifications on this topic but there is just no button to setup it.

To speed up my walking through posts in this topic. Could you just tell me is code working or working and error every time in middle game? Did you finish any games without errors?
