Title: Match play bots need to fly like real models
Post by: DmonSlyr on May 18, 2019, 04:37:26 AM
It's impossible to get a sense of how the flight models work in AH if you practice in the Match play. Planes should not fly above their standard. It seems gamey and is not normal to practice with planes that are flying above their ability compared to the MA.

We’ve all said that, but they weren’t in Match Play until recently, so I still win.   :neener:

How about the training arena having a different fuel burn than any of the other arenas?   

You learn there only to find what you learned does not apply.

Or a checkbox on the clipboard to change it between settings.

The TA could be set to MA standard but this effects training,just like bullets doing damage does. You can fly longer and your plane's weight stays heavier for a slightly longer time.

  Popular planes like spit or 109's have aprox 1 hour with full fuel,just the right amount of time for 1 lesson.


  YMMV.

AI has it's own setting.  before it was changed you could not kill a drone there.  maybe a little adjustment is needed.

 Been on leave,are there AI in the TA now?   If it's a custom arena cant you adjust the level of the AI?

 I was simply explaining why the fuel burn was set differently than in the MA.

I believe you can change it in custom arena.  hitech posted how to do it a couple of months ago.

Morfiend,

The TA would have to be updated with an air spawn for the AI at field A1 set to "M Entry" and an elevation, I used 5k. Then a CM or a script would have to run .sgt 3 to turn the TA into match play format to cause the drones to launch as AI 1-6 depending on how many you set in the arena setup. Arena setup has settings to adjust the AI.

With Hitech's help I got a test arena working as a custom arena.

Here is FX1's post where Hitech helps me get a test arena launching AI running as a custom arena.

Thx Bustr,

 I'm on leave for a while,I hope to come back soon but I will have to see what's in store for me in the next few weeks. My Mom has some health issues and I have to attend to some needs of hers and I have a little issue myself.

Using staged missions you can launch AI aircraft that can be set to attack or not in any arena.  However, I have noticed the AI in a staged mission in an online custom arena are more aggressive than the AI in the same staged mission played offline.  Although you can control the number of AI and whether or not they attack, I have not found a setting for AI skill or aggression level.

There are new entries in the arena setup concerning drones which may be what you are looking for.

I reduced the AIs ability  slightly in the match play arena.
What planes fly is now configurable in the free for all area.

Please request what planes you wish the ai to use.
