However, in last nightly I couldn't find FanAI in the content download window. So I tried in 0.7.0 and found it there, tested it but it did not build any trains. Then an hour later I realized that it might be under another name, but there was no Trans AI in last nightly, but in 0.7.0 there is.

So I guess you have told BaNaNaS that minimum version is 0.7.0. Unfortunately that don't make (later) nightlies able to download it. I use some kind of custom number for PAXLink that I got explained is the same as the OpenTTD version number that GRFs reads. Using this custom number both 0.7.0 and last nightly finds PAXLink. (Unless you really wanted to make it only available for 0.7.0)
Nice to see your AI building rails. :)
Yexo wrote: Using 0.7.0 as minimum version works ok, as long as you set the maximum version to "(None)". If it does not show up in a nightly when you do that, please report it as a bug.
I'm expected to make this AI run-able by both 0.7.0 and nightlies, Zuu is right, I've set minimum to 0.7.0, but the maximum is set to Nightly and leave the default value there (that is 0). Now, Yexo made it clear that the maximum value should be "(None)". And if it is still not available tonight, yeah ... it was a bug.
Thanks to make it clear now. :bow:

cmoiromain wrote:yet another request:
your AI seems to like coal (so do I ^^), and it would be pretty neat to have it re-use previous tracks instead of desperately trying to find another way of reaching the same goal.
Trans AI (and maybe all AI too) can only determine the high price cargo (that is coal in temperate /or oil in dessert). Current strategy is cargo concept (see first post), thus the multi sources is transported to one destination. Current rail pathfinder can't re-use existing track. It still need more learning to combine here, split there, avoid joining signal etc... still need a lot of work :shock:
cmoiromain wrote: Another thing, I don't understand why it builds two way exit signals at stations, there is no rational reason for that is there?
signal now use 2 two way exit signal and 1 two way entry signal for each side. The reason is because I'm still lazy to check where is the head, and where is the back of station :D because it was decided by the pathfinder.
cmoiromain wrote: also something else (less important, maybe it's just a coincidence), the two trans AIs running build their HQ at the same place, maybe you could randomise this a little.
Good an idea, will be implemented in the next version. :D

Thanks again... :D
and thanks to all for feedbacks, corrections and suggestion :bow: I'll go offline now.

It would greatly help if you could post a screenshot of the AI Debug window that appear when Trans AI crashes. Enlarge the window so the read lines are shown.

If it says something about some library not fonud, then that library is missing or installed in the wrong directory so OpenTTD don't find it.

If the error is the same as cmoiromain got, it might have been sorted out in this case. But generally the exact contents of "a lot of red strings" as well as sometimes some of the black just before are very useful for the AI author to know what went wrong in the code.

Revision 62
Fix :: Crash with tile not exist (happened if found unused station)
Fix :: Building Head quarter is randomized
Fix :: Rail that came from the tile exactly beside of depot now redirected to come from in front of depot instead
New :: add rail connection detection (you may seen "null" sign walking)

If you still love FanAI, its still available on Bananas only, since I was deleted it from this forum and my harddisk too :)
I'm expected to make trans AI doing better, but let it still have same behaviour as FanAI is.
The bug you want to report, may be has been fixed today. but without screenshot it's hard to know what is the actual problem (zuu had better explained in post above : thanks zuu)
If the last of a non-red line is yellow line that said "Should not come here (xxx) Suspected -> (xxx)" it's a planned crash to detect an unexpected situation.

And about the crash that I've been fixed in this rev. :
This happened if the AI try to use existing rail station. Checking tiles around industry for a rail Station tile will give return 6 tiles (that is 2 tile platform in 3 tile length)
and calling each tile with AIRail.GetRailStationDirection(tile) will return an invalid result (not NW_SE nor NE_SW but '0' or '1') thus generating a planned crash.
I didn't really know if it was a bug with the API or that is the rule :-), however I've change the routine to call AIRail.GetRailStationDirection(tile) once for each valid station ID, no longer 6 call. and make a hack to check if the result was 0 so it prevent crash.

Trans AI 090420 now available at 2nd post of this thread and Bananas.

EDIT:
nope,still the same ol' crash:
1. It's weird since I'v not used yet the cost callback of rail pathfinder. But I'll try to find it out.
2. Your screen shoot said that the running Trans AI is 090418, FYI the latest is 090420.
Thanks for reporting.

well,even now that i fixed the problem,and for some reason the revision or whatever is now 49025 as the Ai selection window shows me.
any way,i discovered i have not replaced,but added the latest to the old one,so the game chooses the old one,and when i have get rid of the old,i just need to check WA' happens.maybe my system requirements are low?

Well, it said 090425, because I'm actually planned to release it at that date, thus its purely typos :oops:
Right now, Im still work out with the bug you've reported, maybe in a few days it would be done. Thanks :D

1. Start reading from here
2. Make a fork from FanAI 090418 (or whatever version you have) and learning from it. :D
3. Make your own name and version based on that. :wink:

[OOT] You may forget, english isn't may mother language too. And I learn much english from this forum too. :lol:

===
Right Now, fixing a problem with the crash you've reported has been done. But I'd rather test-run it on my laptop first for about 24 hours before uploading on to Bananas/here. :D
