ego() messes up stock AI

[zort]

The following AI script should have no effect on the AI:

Code:

int ego() {
    return 0;
}

However, it completely changes the AI. It's most noticeable with Julian (and other locked characters, though I only tested Justin), because he doesn't use any special moves. It's like he's using Bandit's AI. Here's how he behaves with the above script:

For reference here's how he behaves normally:

I'm using ddraw.dll version 2.2

Afaik there is no way to build upon an existing AI.

You either have to rewrite everything based over template AI or a blank ai. Or use stock AI for that character.

The id() function - this replaces all the characters AI and gives you control over everything it does.

Code:

void id(){}

Always static.

The ego() function - this function will be called by the original basic AI in case you do not use an id() function.

Code:

int ego(){return 0;}

Template/Bandit ai.
