I just finished v0.5 and sent it to MicScoTho, it should be up tonight! it has a lot of improvements i wanted to get out of the way, but now the AI is so good at spending its money (espeically because it doesnt cheat as much) it doesnt rebuild as often! next version ill introduce a system of borrowing the AIs money and paying it back in a lump sum so it has enough for expensive buildings like their tech center and money buildings while not hacking its way to victory!
The Ai cheats less than the EA's AI but its much harder than it, which is good. It however might be a little easier than the previous versions, but they AIs will surely pose a more realistic challenge. You can always play against 2 or 3 of them if one is easy anyways!

heres the changelog

-All generals get less cheat money in late game (less than the original AIs already)
-Infantry general will build a lot more hackers and spread them around (a bit buggy as they sometimes send them too far lol)
-demo gen will build black markets if it runs low on money
-USA generals will only have 2 chinooks per supply center (3 provides little advantage and clogs up when they all move to another pile)
-AF general builds base faster (no other improvements yet)
-SWG will buy the pathfinder science properly
-Fixed SWG not building units bug
-Improved Infatry general's bunkering logic
-Tweaked Demo general's sneak attack group
-Removed frenzy picking for now as the AI didnt use it (will pick arty barrage instead)
-Demo general will use more balanced attack groups
-Demo general might launch a 3 way attack with artillery and tanks right after a scud storm, sneak attack and anthrax bomb if it feels mean
-Improved base repairing for all generals
-Made AI units more agressive
-Improved general point picking (minor changes)
-Infantry general will build and upgrade mines provided it had the funds
-Better firebase filling for the SWG (will start earlier and upgrade to pathfinder once obtained)
-Improved logic for expanding to other supply piles
-Fixed demo general slow motion tunnel guards
-Improved tunnel guard/sneak assault group


Enjoy 😁

yes get the new one from the site. i was thinking of sending you all but it would be a waste of time if its gonna be available within hours...
btw keep up the good work betas, keep the e-mails coming 😁, its helping me find bugs and improve the mod and gives me more time to actually work on it instead of playing against it.

nope you actually made e-mail contact, but you have until tomorrow to send something, its not something personal but its no good taking time to send out betas if the mod wont benefit because of the alck of feedback.
apu and rgl reported bugs and gave suggestions, and they are doing a good job. if you want to stay on the team TheGimp then get playing v0.5 and after a couple fo matches send me an e-mail
with any bugs or weirdness observed. if no problems are found then at least send an e-mail stating that.

hehe i tried reproducing it but no success so far... generals has a lot of bugs and only some of them are AI related, so theres a possibility its EA's fault lol, but ill keep a lookout for it anyways...
get playing v0.5 and writing a report 😁

just run the installer off the zip file and click next all the way (unless your generals ZH folder is different from the default). shouldnt really be hard
