AI question

[AmkG]

I need help developing a strategy board game AI. NOT Chess.
Specs:
Uncertainty. Only known data is position of opponent's pieces, type of enemy piece unknown.
All pieces move 1 step at a time. No diagonals.
paper-rock-scissors piece types. Piece 2 defeats piece 1 and piece 15; piece 3 defeats pieces 1 and 2; piece 4 defeats pieces 1,2,3; piece 5 defeats pieces 1,2,3,4;... up to piece 15 defeats pieces 1 and 3-14, but piece 2 defeats piece 15. Piece 1 is the Flag, VIP, King, bigwig...

The framework's done, now I need the AI!! I need help developing it. Please refer me to any site, book, or any person you think can help... "Information has a tendency to be free. Which means someone will always tell you something you don't want to know."

At the very least tell me where I should be posting this question... "Information has a tendency to be free. Which means someone will always tell you something you don't want to know."

Maybe in a high level language forum? AI stuff is usually implemented using Object Oriented Programming and will be VERY difficult to do in Asm. Regards,

Don't worry what people think about you. They're too busy wondering what you think about them.

That's half the challenge...

And besides... macros are great! They make some HLL's look like imitations. Stuff some in nice tight ASM code and you get the power of ASM with the ease of HLL...

Which HLL forum would you recommend? I don't think the answers a LISP expert would make sense to me, for example, because LISP is so far removed from the way most computers work, (although I could probably implement a list processor with my AI). C is closer, of course, but what do you think is my best chance? "Information has a tendency to be free. Which means someone will always tell you something you don't want to know."

I haven't done much OOP yet, but what I knew until a time ago you can find in FAQ218-865.
You can also contact NØBØD¥ (see my website) who has made AIs (mostly for games) in Visual Basic. Regards,

I already know what OOP is, and I can implement a reasonable approximation of it in Assembly.

Just need ideas for the AI... "Information has a tendency to be free. Which means someone will always tell you something you don't want to know."

I would check out

kx.com, and Randall Hyde's HLA. Also check out A-Flow at

Visual English AIssembly is what I'm waiting for.

The people who have nothing to say and say it too loud have little knowledge, It's the quiet ones you need to worry about!
