Who am I?
Hey there and welcome! This is Alistair from the Age of Empires III modding community. I mainly do AI scripting and custom triggers for scenarios and random maps. In real life I am a content moderator but I'm currently trying to convert myself into software engineering.
Contributions
Most of my work in the community consists of contributions to existing projects, and here are the most "important" ones:
Wars of Liberty
When I was part of the Wars of Liberty Team, my mission was to make the AI support the new gameplay mechanics introduced by the mod, which the original AI struggled a lot with.
Age of Pirates
I helped the Age of Pirates Team with making the mod's unique gameplay mechanics easily reusable by anyone who would be interested in making custom content based on the mod. That is achieved by custom triggers that the Team now calls AutoSetup.
AI Scripting Guide
Since the official modding guide does not contain anything about AI Scripting, I decided to write one. It is beginner friendly and aimed primarily at people who want to be able to make their own AI scripts entirely from scratch.
