about the AI thing, if it's the same as AWDS we at least kinda know when it attacks your units with bad match ups, movements though I have no idea about and knowing would be good
The AI may sometimes move its units next to yours but refrain from firing. AFAIK, this rare behavior is at least the key to the fastest Toy Box strategy.
that sounds like a normal movement behaviour, it's just a coincidence you're near them, in AWDS to determine whether to attack or not, the AI makes a battle estimation before moving, if it ends up being good for them it attacks, otherwise doesn't (I don't know the precise numbers but other people do) if it's the same in AW2 you'd need to manipulate the RNG to make AI estimate a bad battle I'll try that other emulator version

Did someone still improve AW2? I have saved 43 frames in mission2 and 173 frames all. I didn't improve criticaluser's wip, but I Manipulate luck in mission1 for getting the better luck in mission2. http://dehacked.2y.net/microstorage.php/info/267838595/AW2wip.vbm I write this lua to display HP and RNG Download AW2hp.lua
Language: lua

local hero1 = 0x02022694 --local enemy1 = 0x02022994 local x0 = 0x0201E454 local y0 = 0x0201E456 -- 0x0201D510 0x0201E454 0x03007CB8:rng 0x03003FCD:fog while true do gui.text(0,0,"Pow1: "..memory.readdword(0x020232E0),"green") gui.text(60,0,"Pow2: "..memory.readdword(0x0202331C),"green") gui.text(120,0,"Pow3: "..memory.readdword(0x02023358),"green") gui.text(180,0,"Pow4: "..memory.readdword(0x02023394),"green") for i=1,256 do if memory.readbyte(hero1+12*(i-1)-4)>0 then x1=16*memory.readbyte(hero1+12*(i-1)-2)-memory.readshort(x0) y1=16*memory.readbyte(hero1+12*(i-1)-1)-memory.readshort(y0) if memory.readbyte(hero1+12*(i-1))>0 and memory.readbyte(hero1+12*(i-1))<100 then gui.text(x1+8,y1+4,memory.readbyte(hero1+12*(i-1)),"yellow") elseif memory.readbyte(hero1+12*(i-1))>128 and memory.readbyte(hero1+12*(i-1))<228 then gui.text(x1+8,y1+4,memory.readbyte(hero1+12*(i-1))-128,"yellow") end if memory.readbyte(0x03003FCD)==1 then --fog gui.text(x1,y1,memory.readbyte(hero1+12*(i-1)-4),"red") end end end gui.text(64,8,"RNG:"..string.format("%X",memory.readdword(0x03001FD4))) gui.text(120,8,"OldRNG:"..string.format("%X",memory.readdword(0x030044B8))) vba.frameadvance() end

hmm, can you make an encode? I’m curious but I don’t want to bother with watching it on emulator… if you’re serious about this anyway, you should go over to warsworldnews.com’s forums and open a topic asking for strategy help, all the best players are there

Sorry, I made a mistake. And I don't konw why I loss one frames when moving the APC. I loss 3 frames in mission2's title, But I only save 2 frames in mission2 Compare with the fetofs's wip. I will upload the compare movie, and find the reason. A COMPARISON encode, who know what's happened? Some strange things. http://www.mediafire.com/?yrnyezx4gr4c7dy

I'm not a fan of turning off the music, the game is too slow to go without it for over an hour. Nice job finding some improvements though, I'll try to console verify when it's done.
