Talking Modified AI in the Quick Missions

From this thread: http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthread.php?t=31111 someone mentioned that you can change the AI settings to reduce the AI snap-rolls and their short attention span.

I went through all the quick missions and modified the AI according to the instructions here: http://www.bobgamehub.blogspot.com/2...-of-dover.html

I did not set every plane exactly the same (I put the general values I used below) and tried to follow the suggestions for the bombers as well. I only tested a couple of dogfights so it's certainly not perfect and it's probably got some errors (if you get better results or find errors just post them here and I will add it to the archive).

There are install instructions in the zip file (by default I set it up to work with JSGME for ease of testing/use, but it's simple to install by hand as well - just back up your originals!!!)

Here are the values I used (as of v0.5):
ACE 1
Skill 0.93 0.21 0.96 0.95 0.84 1 1 0.63
VETERAN 0.7
Skill 0.73 0.21 0.92 0.85 0.74 1 0.95 0.63
AVERAGE 0.3
Skill 0.32 0.21 0.87 0.75 0.74 0.95 0.90 0.53
ROOKIE 0
Skill 0.30 0.21 0.78 0.70 0.64 0.85 0.85 0.43
Bombers
Skill xx.x xx.x xx.x 0.30-0.70 0.74 1 0.95 0.93
Ground Attack
Skill xx.x xx.x xx.x xx.x 0.74 0.95 0.95 0.75

The following Quick missions are included:
006 - Dogfight - Even.mis
007 - Dogfight - Even - Low Level.mis
008 - Dogfight - Advantage Axis.mis
009 - Dogfight - Advantage Allies.mis
010 - Bomber Intercept - Channel.mis
011 - Bomber Intercept - Channel - Low Level.mis
012 - Bomber Intercept - Hawkindge.mis
013 - Bomber Intercept - London.mis
014 - Bomber Intercept - Calais.mis
015 - Free Hunt.mis
016 - Aerial Battle - Dover.mis
017 - Aerial Battle - Calais.mis
018 - Airfield Attack - Manston.mis
020 - British Attack - Airfield.mis
021 - British Attack - Column.mis
022 - British Attack - Bridge.mis
023 - German Attack - Airfield.mis
024 - German Attack - Column.mis
025 - German Attack - Bridge.mis

Changes:
v0.5 - Lowered the ADVANCED FLYING for all planes to 22 in an attempt to reduce the snap-roll behavior and slightly modified the TACTICS, BRAVERY, and DISCIPLINE values for all aircraft.
v0.4 - Changed bomber AI gunner values per trademe900's suggestion.
v0.3 - Started over with new files using different (fixed) values.
v0.2 - Fixed error in directory structure, modified BRAVERY values.
v0.1 - Original Release

Current version: Quick Missions - Modified AI v0.6.zip
Previous version: Quick Missions - Modified AI v0.5.zip
