AI Tank platoon - setup tutorial (step by step)

[@MrBenFett]

Cool stuff, i thought for sure the automatons blocks would be useful for this but turns out they still cant compete with dedicated scripts

[@Pro100tv9]

I agree, AI blocks are great, but there are some cases where scripts are just irreplaceable

[@randymotter51]

It feels intentional, giving players built in basic automation is useful but it still leaves room for more dedicated scripting to have a place for truly advanced functionality.

[@party4lifedude]

I wonder if there is some way to combine the two to make a more powerful system.

[@xosui5673]

​@@party4lifedude I think I'm gonna experiment later to see if I can make a drone carrier using this script and the new ai blocks.

[@vandiverb]

Space engineers ai drives better than Arma AI lol.

[@little_lord_tam]

Automatons DLC is realy powerful. And Arma needs the ability to be programmable as well imo. In space engineers you can use scripts which are just small codes for the AI you can write yourself or copy paste from others. Its realy powerful for designing Szenarios or use is in free PvP/PvP

[@jay-d8g3v]

I noticed that, and it enjoy it so much more lol a lot more work but it's awesome

[@dakaodo]

Thanks for revisiting avaness's formation scripts! I had not gotten into a lot of script usage for SE back then, and felt intimidated by all the settings and instructions. Now, it looks like a breeze to use. I'll have to mix and match with the AI blocks to see when to stop one and start the other, and whether it's worth it to me! Love your workshop items and other content, as well!

[@dermakrat7895]

Very cool. feels a bit like Supreme Comander now

[@TheCzuro]

Czwart = Fourth Btw a like your builds and tutorials I wish you had more subscribers :)

[@rewrew897]

functions way better than when i used to use it

[@ZorillaMyrid181]

This with the new Automation blocks give me so many ideas; like having a tank with a small beacon pod that a dropship lands at with a respawn station, then if you can get right back in the action even when you're half a planet away from your strike base

[@Arcanidge]

This video is a bloody gold mine. Thank you sooo much

[@Resper]

Ok, now this is epic

[@dominikgancarz3072]

Love your creativity and professionalism.

[@generaljedi8691]

Huh, I’ve used the formation script but never on rovers. I always built hover crafts and would make a big wireless train

[@SparkPlays101]

Hi! could u by chance make a tutorial by the just released AutoPillock script by Cheerkin? I would love to understand how to inplement the use'age of it all on a existing ship(without copy/pasting anything off bp) His just released script: "[APck] AutoPillock Core 1.0"

[@alanp621]

has anyone tried this script with the new compact suspension and rover cockpit blocks recently? I've used this script in the past, and I'm having issues getting them to work with these blocks.

[@s.e.c.u.8340]

Very Epic!

[@SomeD00D01]

Really awesome stuff I love this it's truly awesome

[@GeneralDoge-f3c]

or you could just use AI recorder, flight and offensive while using beacons to help, it does mean you have to set up each and every tank, but it's worth it

[@swagysnoop5248]

are you able to make a new automated mining setup with these blocks? or anything to automate basic tasks?

[@brennancurrier806]

I would assume so. I still am messing with these new blocks myself. I’ve had a few drone ideas

[@joelmichalowitz9048]

really nice work! i love it!

[@c.jandrews304]

Very impressive as always. I'm at the moment trying to convince some people I've been gaming with to join space engineers. They are known as the Infant Legion. If they do join us, we are interested in your skills, if that's something you would like to have fun with. I'm not sure if they're joining but they're talking. We'll see

[@SparkPlays101]

Anyway to use this for Space ships :)?

[@Pro100tv9]

There is another script that works with formation leader called formation follower that works with ship. Here's an example from my workshop steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2567203354

[@SparkPlays101]

@@Pro100tv9 hi thank you for reacting! Are all these scripts still in working ways with all the updates recently made

[@Pro100tv9]

The rover follower still worked very recently, I'm not sure about the formation follower, but I bet 5 bucks that it does 😅

[@SparkPlays101]

@@Pro100tv9 haha understood, i see u already got pre-made ships anyway to implement it in my own ships

[@evablouseblanche112]

doesn't seem to wanna work with 2x2 wheels or did I screw up somwhere ?

[@Pro100tv9]

Are the in-game scripts enabled in your world settings?

[@evablouseblanche112]

@@Pro100tv9 yes, the scripts specifically stated it encountered an error with "unknown wheels" and listed my 2x2s

[@Pro100tv9]

That's interesting. Thanks for letting me know!

[@evablouseblanche112]

@@Pro100tv9 no problem. I can try to recreate the error and send you a world download if you'd like, but I have yet to test in a fully vanilla setting.

[@morganbeebe1338]

I think this is cool but I want more vanilla rover AI with no program block

[@kevinvandomselaar]

does it work in space???

[@Pro100tv9]

Yes, Leader-Flight follower pair works well in space

[@Gaalsien-Messenger]

Will this work on console servers?

[@Pro100tv9]

I'm not sure

[@SharkStrikeAC]

The script appears to run on the client side. So it won't work on consoles. Ask Microsoft.

[@HarryL2020]

Keen said it wasn't possible 😅
