===2005-12-07 Star Wars: Spring 1.0 Released===
The well known Star Wars TC for TA has been ported to Spring.

One of the most complete TCs that existed for TA has now been fully ported to Spring - all of the bugs that plagued the quick and dirty earlier port have been fixed. Some balancing issues that came up in Spring has also been taken care of, along with a few other minor modifications, to ensure that this modification is made specifically for the Spring engine, so that you can enjoy it as such. Furthermore, many of the uglier low-polygon units for SWTA have been remodelled for Spring, so that you can now enjoy high-poly infantry units, as well as a few other vehecular changes.

Feel free to come join us on our own chat channel (itself a good 5 years old), where you can organise games, discuss balance, and report bugs:

Server: irc.gnug.org

Channel: #SWTA

An in-depth manual, with help regarding strategies and unit descriptions can be located [http://www.planetannihilation.com/swta/readme.asp here], however, bear in mind that while much of this will be very helpful, it was originally intended for the Original Total Annihilation release, and so is not 100% accurate or reliable with regards to the Spring release. A Spring-specific manual is in the works.

SWS features around 130 units ranging from all six movies and the expanded universe for the Galactic Empire and Rebel Alliance. Join this galaxy spanning war today, download SWS!

===2005-12-07 Star Wars: Spring 1.0 Released===
The well known Star Wars TC for TA has been ported to Spring.

One of the most complete TCs that existed for TA has now been fully ported to Spring - all of the bugs that plagued the quick and dirty earlier port have been fixed. Some balancing issues that came up in Spring has also been taken care of, along with a few other minor modifications, to ensure that this modification is made specifically for the Spring engine, so that you can enjoy it as such. Furthermore, many of the uglier low-polygon units for SWTA have been remodelled for Spring, so that you can now enjoy high-poly infantry units, as well as a few other vehecular changes.

Feel free to come join us on our own chat channel (itself a good 5 years old), where you can organise games, discuss balance, and report bugs:

Server: irc.gnug.org

Channel: #SWTA

An in-depth manual, with help regarding strategies and unit descriptions can be located [http://www.planetannihilation.com/swta/readme.asp here], however, bear in mind that while much of this will be very helpful, it was originally intended for the Original Total Annihilation release, and so is not 100% accurate or reliable with regards to the Spring release. A Spring-specific manual is in the works.

SWS features around 130 units ranging from all six movies and the expanded universe for the Galactic Empire and Rebel Alliance. Join this galaxy spanning war today, download SWS!

===2005-12-07 Star Wars: Spring 1.0 Released===
The well known Star Wars TC for TA has been ported to Spring.

One of the most complete TCs that existed for TA has now been fully ported to Spring - all of the bugs that plagued the quick and dirty earlier port have been fixed. Some balancing issues that came up in Spring has also been taken care of, along with a few other minor modifications, to ensure that this modification is made specifically for the Spring engine, so that you can enjoy it as such. Furthermore, many of the uglier low-polygon units for SWTA have been remodelled for Spring, so that you can now enjoy high-poly infantry units, as well as a few other vehecular changes.

An in-depth manual, with help regarding strategies and unit descriptions can be located [http://www.planetannihilation.com/swta/readme.asp here], however, bear in mind that while much of this will be very helpful, it was originally intended for the Original Total Annihilation release, and so is not 100% accurate or reliable with regards to the Spring release. A Spring-specific manual is in the works.

This is by far the most expanded and carefully balanced race that has been created to this point.

===2005-12-07 Star Wars: Spring 1.0 Released===
The well known Star Wars TC for TA has been ported to Spring.

One of the most complete TCs that existed for TA has now been fully ported to Spring - all of the bugs that plagued the quick and dirty earlier port have been fixed. Some balancing issues that came up in Spring has also been taken care of, along with a few other minor modifications, to ensure that this modification is made specifically for the Spring engine, so that you can enjoy it as such. Furthermore, many of the uglier low-polygon units for SWTA have been remodelled for Spring, so that you can now enjoy high-poly infantry units, as well as a few other vehecular changes.

Feel free to come join us on our own chat channel (itself a good 5 years old), where you can organise games, discuss balance, and report bugs:

Server: irc.gnug.org

Channel: #SWTA

An in-depth manual, with help regarding strategies and unit descriptions can be located [http://www.planetannihilation.com/swta/readme.asp here], however, bear in mind that while much of this will be very helpful, it was originally intended for the Original Total Annihilation release, and so is not 100% accurate or reliable with regards to the Spring release. A Spring-specific manual is in the works.

SWS features around 130 units ranging from all six movies and the expanded universe for the Galactic Empire and Rebel Alliance. Join this galaxy spanning war today, download SWS!

===2005-12-07 Star Wars: Spring 1.0 Released===
The well known Star Wars TC for TA has been ported to Spring.

One of the most complete TCs that existed for TA has now been fully ported to Spring - all of the bugs that plagued the quick and dirty earlier port have been fixed. Some balancing issues that came up in Spring has also been taken care of, along with a few other minor modifications, to ensure that this modification is made specifically for the Spring engine, so that you can enjoy it as such. Furthermore, many of the uglier low-polygon units for SWTA have been remodelled for Spring, so that you can now enjoy high-poly infantry units, as well as a few other vehecular changes.

Feel free to come join us on our own chat channel (itself a good 5 years old), where you can organise games, discuss balance, and report bugs:

Channel: #SWTA

An in-depth manual, with help regarding strategies and unit descriptions can be located [http://www.planetannihilation.com/swta/readme.asp here], however, bear in mind that while much of this will be very helpful, it was originally intended for the Original Total Annihilation release, and so is not 100% accurate or reliable with regards to the Spring release. A Spring-specific manual is in the works.

SWS features around 130 units ranging from all six movies and the expanded universe for the Galactic Empire and Rebel Alliance. Join this galaxy spanning war today, download SWS!

===2005-12-07 Star Wars: Spring 1.0 Released===
The well known Star Wars TC for TA has been ported to Spring.

One of the most complete TCs that existed for TA has now been fully ported to Spring - all of the bugs that plagued the quick and dirty earlier port have been fixed. Some balancing issues that came up in Spring has also been taken care of, along with a few other minor modifications, to ensure that this modification is made specifically for the Spring engine, so that you can enjoy it as such. Furthermore, many of the uglier low-polygon units for SWTA have been remodelled for Spring, so that you can now enjoy high-poly infantry units, as well as a few other vehecular changes.

Feel free to come join us on our own chat channel (itself a good 5 years old), where you can organise games, discuss balance, and report bugs:

An in-depth manual, with help regarding strategies and unit descriptions can be located [http://www.planetannihilation.com/swta/readme.asp here], however, bear in mind that while much of this will be very helpful, it was originally intended for the Original Total Annihilation release, and so is not 100% accurate or reliable with regards to the Spring release. A Spring-specific manual is in the works.

Veylon: /* Current AI's */

AI, or Artificial Intelligence, is what the Computer Opponents in games are called. Developing a good AI is a major undertaking, and requires quite a bit of know how. As the SY's have more important things to do than develop an AI, they have left this job up to the community. The community has risen to the occasion remarkably well, releasing quite a few AI's, most of which are in working condition.

There are currently a few AI's in development. The more notable of these include JCAI, which is shipped with Spring, and NTAI, which is not stable enough for release yet.

== Current AI's ==
=== [[AI:JCAI|JCAI]] ===
[[AI:JCAI|JCAI]] is an AI currently being developed by [[User:Zaphod|Zaphod]]. It is currently being shipped with Spring, and is a good starting point for new players to train against. Is very stable........................

=== [[AI:NTAI|NTAI]] ===
[[AI:NTAI|NTAI]] is an AI currently being developed by [http://taspring.clan-sy.com/phpbb/profile.php?mode=viewprofile&u=73 Alantai Firestar]. It performs better than [[User:Zaphod|Zaphod's]] [[AI:JCAI|JCAI]], but is not quite as stable. Because of this, it was not shipped with the current version of Spring, but will quite possibly make it into a future version....................

=== OTAI ===
OTAI is an AI being developed by [[User:Veylon|Veylon]]. It builds randomly using OTA-style profiles. More erratic than either JCAI or NTAI....................

=== ZcAIn ===
[[AI:ZcAIn|ZcAIn]] is an AI currently being developed by [[User:Cain|Cain]]. It is probably the least developed of the lot, but is coming along nicley. It is a new addition to the AI scene..................

=== [[Random enemies|Random Enemy's]] ===
There is a also the [[Random enemies|Random Enemy's]] script, which can be used for some basic testing. It is not an AI as such, but a spawn script that can be either used to test an AI, or to train against..............

== Documentation ==

=== Global AI Interface ===
Jouninkomiko has a topic on the [http://taspring.clan-sy.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=923 Global AI Interface] running here.

=== Metal Handler Class ===
Cain has developed and released a Metal Handler Class that succesfully finds metal spots on maps, which can be a major stumbling block for many AI developers. Information about it can be found in [http://taspring.clan-sy.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=2408 this thread]

=== Theory ===
Useful existing documentation on the Spring unit AI can be found in
[http://taspring.clan-sy.com/SAI/ K-man's Spring AI documentation], however this is not related to the Global AI.

Alantai Firestar has a lot of theory on the topic on [http://www.darkstars.co.uk his site], including details on his NTAI project.

Triaxx had a topic about the '[http://taspring.clan-sy.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=539 5 Matrix AI 1,2,3]', and also some information at Alantai Firestar's site.
