It is an extremely versatile tool that allows the user to automate almost any task in the game. |
− | + | Compared to workers, AI scripts are far more versatile as they can interact with almost every system in the game and even for systems for which there is no current APIs that the AI could use to interact it can always perform mouse clicks to simulate such behavior. This is currently limited as the AI can only click on in-game UI buttons so things like region [[artifacts]] must still be performed manually, additionally the AI cannot perform right or middle mouse clicks. However AI cannot run while the game is closed (or more accurately during the simulated time when opening a save file) or interact with buildings which are not open. Workers can do both of these things, appear before AI (MT1 rather than MT4) and are far simpler to use without community assistance so while AI may have more power to automate the game, neither is a replacement for the other. | |
− | ==AI | + | To use the AI you must first obtain a script to execute. There are several ways to do this: |
+ | |||
+ | *Create an AI script in the headquarters. For more information on learning how to create scripts, see [[Using the AI]]. | ||
+ | *Obtain import codes for scripts that other players have written. For a list of available scripts, see the [https://discord.com/channels/488444879836413975/1093895780865163284 discord forum]. | ||
+ | *Use machine learning (a macro system). This is done by pressing F7 while the AI overlay is active. | ||

− | + | All scripts have a limit of impulses, conditions and actions. Impulses and conditions have a cap of 10, actions a cap pf 50. | |
− | |||
− | + | ===Impulses=== | |
+ | An Impulse can refer to any button press or event that directly activates an AI script. It is not to be confused with the Basic:Execute command which is not considered an impulse, as it is not a way for a player to directly trigger an AI script, but rather a way of calling the script inside of another AI script much like helper methods in high level programming languages. Each impulse can trigger the AI script, regardless if it has already been triggered. It is possible that a script can trigger multiple times before it has finished execution. In this case multiple instances of this script can run in parallel. | ||
− | + | ===Conditions=== | |
− | + | A Condition is a requirement that has to be fulfilled in order for the script to start executing. If any condition in the script is false then the script will not be executed when an impulse is triggered by a player action. During the execution the specified conditions have no effect. All conditions are of data Type:Bool, and any expression that returns a bool can be used as a condition | |
− | |||
− | |||
− | |||
− | |||
− | + | ===Actions=== | |
− | + | An Action is something that the AI does when the script becomes active. The Actions are executed one by one, in order from top to bottom. Actions will continue to be executed until either the AI menu is closed, or the script terminates normally. Within one instance of a script, as many actions as the script budget will allow can be executed in one frame. Atomic actions (those with a red symbol) cost 0 budget, all others cost 100. The script is executed in sequence until the budget is reached at which point execution is given to the next script. | |

+ | |Stops execution of this script for this frame and continues in the next one. | ||
+ | |- | ||
+ | |Basic: Execute | ||
+ | |<code>void execute(string script)</code> | ||
+ | |Executes the first script in the list which is named <code>script</code> without requiring an impulse. Conditions of the script called still have to be fulfilled. Executed scripts are put at the end of the script list, and because of this they (usually) will run their first action in the same frame, since the script list pointer is still on the calling script, earlier in the script list. | ||
+ | |- | ||
+ | |Basic: Execute (Sync) | ||

+ | |- | ||
+ | |Basic: Stop | ||
+ | |<code>void stop(string script)</code> | ||
+ | |Stops the execution of all scripts and script instances which are named <code>script</code>. '''Important bug/feature:''' If a script stops ''itself'', the script list pointer is reset to the beginning, effectively giving everything before this script an "extra" cycle. Because scripts that have reached the end aren't cleaned up until the end-of-frame processing, this means that scripts on their last line (or that have jumped to 99) will re-execute their last line, which can cause bugs. This behavior is known as "Turbo Exec," since it can be used to build programs that execute much faster than the typical one-action-per-frame. | ||

The facility AI (short for "Artificial Intelligence") is a feature of the Headquarters that unlocks upon reaching Military Tier 4 and finishing the associated software. It is an extremely versatile tool that allows the user to automate almost any task in the game.
Compared to workers, AI scripts are far more versatile as they can interact with almost every system in the game and even for systems for which there is no current APIs that the AI could use to interact it can always perform mouse clicks to simulate such behavior. This is currently limited as the AI can only click on in-game UI buttons so things like region artifacts must still be performed manually, additionally the AI cannot perform right or middle mouse clicks. However AI cannot run while the game is closed (or more accurately during the simulated time when opening a save file) or interact with buildings which are not open. Workers can do both of these things, appear before AI (MT1 rather than MT4) and are far simpler to use without community assistance so while AI may have more power to automate the game, neither is a replacement for the other.
To use the AI you must first obtain a script to execute. There are several ways to do this:
- Create an AI script in the headquarters. For more information on learning how to create scripts, see Using the AI.
- Obtain import codes for scripts that other players have written. For a list of available scripts, see the discord forum.
- Use machine learning (a macro system). This is done by pressing F7 while the AI overlay is active.
Contents
AI Script Format
An AI script contains three sections that control its behavior:
- Impulses
- Conditions
- Actions
All scripts have a limit of impulses, conditions and actions. Impulses and conditions have a cap of 10, actions a cap pf 50.
Impulses
An Impulse can refer to any button press or event that directly activates an AI script. It is not to be confused with the Basic:Execute command which is not considered an impulse, as it is not a way for a player to directly trigger an AI script, but rather a way of calling the script inside of another AI script much like helper methods in high level programming languages. Each impulse can trigger the AI script, regardless if it has already been triggered. It is possible that a script can trigger multiple times before it has finished execution. In this case multiple instances of this script can run in parallel.
Conditions
A Condition is a requirement that has to be fulfilled in order for the script to start executing. If any condition in the script is false then the script will not be executed when an impulse is triggered by a player action. During the execution the specified conditions have no effect. All conditions are of data Type:Bool, and any expression that returns a bool can be used as a condition
Actions
An Action is something that the AI does when the script becomes active. The Actions are executed one by one, in order from top to bottom. Actions will continue to be executed until either the AI menu is closed, or the script terminates normally. Within one instance of a script, as many actions as the script budget will allow can be executed in one frame. Atomic actions (those with a red symbol) cost 0 budget, all others cost 100. The script is executed in sequence until the budget is reached at which point execution is given to the next script.
There is a maximum budget per script. This is determined by the total amount of RAM installed in all servers.
To get a budget of 10,000 requires fully upgrading the RAM of all 16 servers.
AI Script Language
Data Types
There are various data types that are usable within AI scripts, all of which are incredibly versatile and useful in creating a script as complex or simple as one desires.
Type | Description | Example Values | Default Value | Notes |
---|---|---|---|---|
double | A integer that allows decimal precision. Can be positive or negative. | 3.2, 0.29, -10.2, 7.9999993 | 0.0 | Doubles have a max value of approximately 1.797 × 10308. |
int | A number that does not allow decimal precision. Can be positive or negative. | 20, 69, 420, -1029, 0 | 0 | Ints range from -2147483648 to 2147483647 |
string | An array of characters. Basically a way to format and use text. | "meow", "hello", " ", "I am a text", "!BanBudE" | "" | The quotes in the examples are not included in the actual string value. |
bool | A binary value that can either be true or false. | true, false | false | |
Vector2 | A container type that contains two double values called x and y. | (-30.0, 0.0), (28.38, 13) | (0.0, 0.0) |
Some datatypes can be converted to others by using a function. Check the table below to see which datatypes are currently interchangeable.
Source / Target | double | int | string | bool | Vector2 |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
double | - | Yes | Yes | No | Partially |
int | Yes | - | Yes | No | No |
string | Yes | Yes | - | No | No |
bool | No | No | No | - | No |
Vector2 | Partially | No | No | No | - |
(The table will be updated as soon as more AI features are available.)
Functions
Any line in an AI script (apart from impulses) represents a function.
There are two major types of functions:
- Without a return value (= Actions)
- With a return value
Functions without a return value appear as actions in the sidebar of the AI-script editor. In general these functions do something specific but require some sort of input.
The various inputs to a function are called arguments. Each argument of a function has a specific datatype and accepts either a constant value or a function with a return value of the same type.
APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) (as of v0.49)
Function signatures have been slightly modified to conform with a C-like syntax for similarity with other function signatures. The special return type impulse
denotes a function is an input (rather than an action), actions which previously did not have a return type now have the void
return type and the colon between type and argument name is removed.

|
Basic: Wait While | void waitwhile(bool condition)
|
Stops the current script as long as condition is True.
|
Basic: Wait Frame | void waitframe()
|
Stops execution of this script for this frame and continues in the next one. |
Basic: Execute | void execute(string script)
|
Executes the first script in the list which is named script without requiring an impulse. Conditions of the script called still have to be fulfilled. Executed scripts are put at the end of the script list, and because of this they (usually) will run their first action in the same frame, since the script list pointer is still on the calling script, earlier in the script list.
|
Basic: Execute (Sync) | void executesync(string script)
|
Executes the first script in the list which is named script and waits until the execution is completed. Conditions of the script still have to be fulfilled.
|
Basic: Stop | void stop(string script)
|
Stops the execution of all scripts and script instances which are named script . Important bug/feature: If a script stops itself, the script list pointer is reset to the beginning, effectively giving everything before this script an "extra" cycle. Because scripts that have reached the end aren't cleaned up until the end-of-frame processing, this means that scripts on their last line (or that have jumped to 99) will re-execute their last line, which can cause bugs. This behavior is known as "Turbo Exec," since it can be used to build programs that execute much faster than the typical one-action-per-frame.
