Has anyone played the fan map- naib 60 mission 3- ?

Whistler and I were checking maps out the other night and on this one it SEEMED as though the AI was allied. We played as Atr. VS 2 AI one Hark and one Ordos. The enemy attacked together with hark tanks and laser tanks side by side without firing on each other. I was wondering how this could be. Any ideas? or is there some other explanation.... I mean, we weren't drinking THAT much......

  All depends on how the map was made with the map editor.  I've seen many, many bugs with those maps, I think i've made 2 or 3 way back but I had one done thought it was ok, but when a friend and I played it online, found out later we could build on anyones rock at anytime during the game.

I think you would have to edit the rules.ini to achive that, not with a map...Methinks anyway...

Well I mean you can make a nice pretty looking map, but unless you correctly set all your AI, enemy, entrance points etc, etc. it will turn out buggy like that. Unless the map editor changed a whole lot since I last used it.

Well I don't know about possible bugs in the map, I have never tried to make one. But if any of the people who would know could download and try the map, I would be interested to see the results. In this map the AI has every advantage. If you play against 1 hark no matter what the settings I think you will die pretty quick, and I say this knowing just about everybody out there is much better than me and whistler. No matter what your settings, the AI has a huge pre- built base, and super weapons, and all three houses, so you start at a huge disadvantage. Theres nothing like just getting your barracks up and getting hit with death hand missles left and right. And the AI houses do not fight each other.

oh well,. thats realy the hardest map i ever played...hehe...it took me so much tries to finish it sucsessfully. yall should try it...its fun. all those cannons will kill all u built from the first minuits.

when i have built maps, and placed there some buildings like palaces, than i got the result, that when i played the map, i was owner of those buildings. so i think its possible to give some buildings to one ai. so i guess he gave buildings of all houses and those cannons and those mass of turrets to 1 ai. the other 2 ai`s r normal ai`s i guess.

but a great worked out map....respect...hehe.

to solve the game, i played atr. i was nearly dead abaut 20 min i guess, but i was able to kill some turrets with minodrops on that big rock, so that i got place to make a mvc drop. than i pumped out minos and sards on the enemy rock AND on my own to save my spice like the hell. when i killed those cannons, it was easy, to finish em all off.

i was only able to win, when i got the botton rock. on all other rocks i died....lol...

yeah there are 5 rocks. u put 3 ai`s in ur sets. and 1 ai will get the big pre-built base with buildings of all houses. he let his starting-mvc at the smaller rock alone. he dont built anything there.

me and jeff were trying it a few times last night online til we were able to finish it together sucsesfully.
