JAMI: Just Another Moronic Intelligence

[Wasila]

It looks like JAMI on my game is going to be paralysed with possibilities until v4. Also doesn't reading everything off the map take a lot longer, especially on larger maps?

[Xander]

It certainly does, on both counts. I rushed out v3, but that's why god invented weekends

I'm going to be sitting down with JAMI and teaching her how to better select routes, probably teaching her to limit her choices to the top 10 starts and not looking further than she can path.

Not neccessarily lot longer. If you make sure to have your depots in the vehicle orders you for example don't have to scan a lot of tiles to find them.

Both CluelessPlus and PAXLink are implemented so that they do not store anything on save. This will however change a bit on PAXLink for station statistics.

[Xander]

I was saying yes to the idea that large maps have quite a lot of towns and industries. JAMI scores every possible route she can which means lots of industries and certainly lots of towns causes her to take forever to pick a route.

Therefore she doesn't need to have save/load implemented.

In that case the best option is to implement empty save and load functions to make sure the warning is disabled.

I plan to. I just couldn't get my head around tables and wanted to get JAMI v3 out there - given the mess v2 was causing

This is all you need:

Code: Select all

function JAMI::Save()
{
 local table = {};	
 return table;
}

function JAMI::Load(version, data)
{
}

You got the idea.. She ( as you call the AI ) even builds the stations the wrong way and doesn't connect them to a road.

Edit: new game and a quote from the debug about the station spam

Many thanks. Added to the bug list

Known about - planned for v8: http://noai.openttd.org/issues/show/12

[Wasila]

Cool, never saw that roadmap.

Is JAMI actually only for rvs? You've never explicitly stated that...

Also I'm now getting:

MANAGER: New session

around twenty times!

Road network problem:

Buses are being created and trying to ply the Fort Fladtown to Rinningville Transfer route, but as you can see it's not connected to a depot.

Keep up the good work though, the debug stuff is very readable

[bedders]

Your script made an error: parameter 1 has an invalid type 'function'; expected:'integer'

[Xander]

Many thanks. I'm pretty sure v4 should correct this problem

[Kogut]

Can I use your log output format and/or your messages in my AI?

I know this is a real gravedig, but I randomly came across it, the AI console script amused me and I wanted to see what it looked like in OpenTTD today. Tagging just to see if Xander is still interested in trying to debug it after all of this time.

The successfully built one route, but then it started to build roads next to the intersection corners, it tried to then build a station, it failed and then abandons the route it just built.
