Idea - Single player "skirmish" game type vs AI players #2431

Sorry to burst your bubble, but ideas go around everywhere. Literally everybody has them, and everybody has way more ideas than they can realize in their life. This also means you'll find it hard to get anyone to work for free on your ideas. Given a choice between work for free on own ideas versus work for free on ideas of someone else, pretty much everybody picks option 1. As a result, if you want this to go anywhere beyond writing a page of text that nobody will pick up, start implementing it yourself. |

So the first draft is out #2433 The first thing that i need some help is how to get and set data for an AI player from the game. |

There is no AI player at all, there is only an AI hospital, and it does a lot of nothing at all currently. |

What about finding or creating these 2 functions as a first step? (Or even just the "get" side, I have no idea how complicated adding the interface will be.). |

While you want the AI functions eventually, doing them all before you have an AI hospital running may be very boring. You could also make steps in the AI itself.perhaps? AI hospitals are created, I don't know if you get a call to do processing for making decisions (although I wouldn't be surprised if that currently works). I also don't know whether they get a parcel assigned to them. |

The hospital exists,
I don't know what you have in mind here. You can ask concrete questions about the existing code (probably the chat is quicker than in a discussion), so you get understanding why code is as it is, but please don't expect anyone to write your code. It will take time to understand the code base and make sense of it, spend time getting acquainted with it. Read how things are done and eventually you'll be able to find your way in it. |

Before multiplayer is made the idea is to first create a "skirmish" game type with AI players (the same game type that would be with human players). So the idea is to take the multiplayer game play from theme hospital but create AI players which the human can play with. There would be a few things that would need to be set up.
post your ideas on this below.
