Is there any way to tweak WhichBot so it will build more oc's? Right now marching in on a hive seems to be too easy, and resource nodes are never defended. Here is what I have tried, I just want to know if I am headed in the right direction, or whether there is a better way.
[./builder]
# Rewarding the desire to go towards hives to build hive defense
hive_reward=200.0
# We can only place a hive defense building every hive_defense_timeout seconds
hive_defense_timeout=2.0
# hive_desire affects how much the gorge wants to build second and third hives
hive_desire=60.0
# hive_defense_desire affects how much the gorge wants to build OCs and DCs near hive locations
hive_defense_desire=100.0
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
The current version of wb no longer correctly interprets some of the messages being sent by the current version of ns. This is the reasons that the gorges don't build properly all the time. Tweaking the whichbot.txt won't help.
Be patient and wait for the next version.

Some, if not all, of that information is available at ModNS, and there was at least some talk of some kind of access to that information there, I don't know how far it went, but I do know you can contact at least one of the devs there, can't remember his name though, but if you ask there someone will be able to tell you for sure.

Cool, thanks for the answer. :)
You'd think with the extensive NS modding community that the dev team could post a list of messages that have changed with each version. ::sigh::
