why?he keeps crashing because this error:you script made an error:
cost callback has to be function pointer.
any ideas what it means?

Hey,

seems to work stable now, but the AI still builds some weird tracks. But that should be fixable I think
And in this case the AI tries to build a depot about a million times and seems to never stop?

This error is thrown by the Aystar library. This suggests that the rail pathfinder is not providing the _Cost() method correctly.

I tried Trans AI. But i found it really made the game unplayable because it slow it right down and at times the game would pause for about a minute or so.

I would like to know, what is the size of map, how many industries there, etc..
So, please :
-upload your saved game
-tell what grf in use
-how many TransAI instance run

The Map size is 2048X2048
AI Nocab Bleeding Edge and Admiral

Industries and towns set on normal.

good news!after a virus hardy injured my pc,i have reinstalled the windows on my computer.
and woilla!trans ai works!a very nice ai,if ottd would have a default no_ai,your ai will be the best(it good for every one,exeprts and begginers alike!) choise.
cheers,david the ottd kid.

davidx123:
Im glad to see it finally work in your pc.

Joke mode : on.
Thanks to the virus?
Joke mode : off.

however, current code need to be optimized due to bugs reported by wozzar and deepblue2k8.

Thanks for all reports have been made.

i got a small(yet funny) idea.
you avatar is a face made with tt face maker.
so why ai wont use this face?only if you can do it.
since all congficurations has numbers(like paramets:2 3 4 5 6 7 3 4 result some thiong,and 3 4 5 6 7 3 2result something ealse).
sorry for any speeling problems,mozzila acting wierd.

Actually, that is already in my mind, but it seem theres no API function to change current face. (we need a function like AICompany.ChangeFace(x, y, z); )

it seems you ai got a small problem:
when it build a nice rout from a to b,and later he upgrade to electric,he upgrade every rail part.
but you cannot convert if there is a train on that part of the rail's later when he replace the trains with electric,they stuck in some points.since i care about the ongoing of other ai,i switched company and tried to fix it,but i was thinking it some thing with signals so i told him to ignore,and well,you know.
boom(or as i love to describe braniac:science bang)

You know?your ai is just a little child.it know how to do it,but the details just don't bother him.
i wish i could test this ai against the old AI!
anyway,i have another idea.you ai should build two rail stations from two large towns,and not buses,since over time they become over-fulled.
i recommend to use something like"if town has more than 1500 inhabitants build rail" or something.
that way he will get hinger ratings,and pays.
he also needs to consider the distance bettween.so add "if distance is 300" or whatever you use in sqireal.

Thanks..
Current code (090426) will only uses buses for Town->Town cargo, Right now I'm working to improve many things here

Since TransAI does not seem to work correctly with 0.7.1, we've set the maximum version in bananas to something just before 0.7.1, so users with 0.7.1 can't download Trans AI via bananas anymore. The acall/pcall/call changes have broken this AI unfortunately. I hope you'll be able to update your AI soon.

Ups... forget Thanks.

Yup, I'm still work on this

Hello all,
Here TransAI have LTR for Long Time Release.
As known that the latest version of TransAI was 090426, now we have 090619. Wich is (hopefully) fix amount of bug reported.
Whats New ?
- Task management should fix what is wozzar reported. Although steel there are lag for a second or twice while pathfinding.
- Re-base on rail pathfinder, so you may not seen again an old-AI-style rail route
- Actually check OTTD version. It is required at least minor ver 7 and build 1 (0.7.1) or rev16537
- Improvement in many areas (included but not limited to): cargo, industries, towns, and vehicles handling.

What about performance (in term of money maker) ?
- I'd prefer you test your self, as the result will vary and depend on map settings. (I just so shy, because still can't compete with other AI )

Just keep report if I miss something in this release

Download is available on Bananas and 2nd post of this thread

Nice to see this AI being improved and updated.
That LTR factor was getting in the way indeed.

I'll go test it some.

Nice work,

Would be nice if you could add a switch to enable/disable debug signs. Just copy the code from AdmiralAI or PAXLink and you'll get the same string for the switch as those two AIs. (I copied the settings switch code from AdmiralAI)

Also, it would be cool if you can support the advanced settings for enable/disable trains/road vehicles/ships/airplanes of AIs.

oh,finally!
in Israel we finished the study year,and we out for a nice 61 days of freedom,so i got more that enough time to test the AI.
anyway,I just happy it works with 0.7.1.
AI to the max!

Thanks sirkoz (for the 1st comment to TransAI) , davidx123, and zuu..
I didnt mean to annoyin any body with sign, so I always clear sign after building things. However your idea seems to be good. It will done in the next version.
