Forge: Place enemys and bots.

Halo 4. New ideas, new "start". I´d always had a dream of that you would be able to place out enemys (brutes, elites, spartans.) So if you were not online you could play custom games with other without being online! Please reply, so everyone can see this. We may do this or else we dream on...

Thanks for that Tesseract. To touch on what Joh stated above you, he has the correct learning path of understanding how exactly AI works. Placing AI via spawns is not the problem. The problem is, Forge works by editing the scenario file. this means that we have to have all available AI tags that goe with each AI biped. On top of that, zones, squads, commands and pathfinding need to placed or created to go with each AI. squads and zones are scripted commands, which means we would either have to be given the core spawn zones and squads, or have to be given the method to create them. Creating AI tags would require a full HEK, which will not run on a console. They can however release a PC HEK that has the proper AIP and connection protocols to allow real-time editing

 

Touching back on the Ai itself, scripts have to be written then compiled by tool, then set in the scenario file to go with the proper biped or AI characters. None of this ever likely to happen, as the last time we even got a chance to mess with full AI resources, was with Halo 1's HEK. It's been about 8 eyars since that HEK was given out, and we have had nothing since. You can't even count Halo 2's HEK, since we at H2MT had to find a dll mod to play certain content, and it took 3PO a while to re-write some of the HEK code to allow editing and creation of certain tags.
