Worthy Marines

Description
Worthy Marines is an overhaul to AI behaviour for the Adeptus Astartes, the Space Marines.

The Worthy Marines is the 8th published mod of the Worthy AI Collection, with mods planned for all factions.

The Worthy mods strive to improve AI performance without changing balance or mechanics. The mods provide the AI with a strategy for units and upgrades, nudges the econ decision making, and improves the AI's use of units' abilities.

For the Worthy Marines, the AI also now takes advantage of Space Marine Tactics.

The Worthy mods use the EXT mod format to be reasonably compatible with other mods. They also attempt to minimize additional visual clutter for non-AI players. These are relatively challenging mods to code, technically complex. If you come across a behaviour you dislike, let me know, and I can attempt to address it!

Enjoy!

@Havuk- it depends.

If they re-use the units from the original Space Marine faction- yes :steamthumbsup:.
If they duplicated those units into a new faction- no :steamthumbsdown:
If they are new units- no: :steamthumbsdown:

@vaek does this impact space marine factions from other mods?

Grond20- it's a fair question! They are being stubborn. It's funny because as vanilla they are one of the better factions, but as Worthy they are well.... unworthy :steamfacepalm:

Worthy Chaos when ?

AUGUST NOTE
Great news! I have developed a clearer, lower impact method for putting Ai abilities on cooldown.
Terrible news! When I put the update out it will _definitely_ cause crashes for pre-existing save games.
My plan is to release the update for all the Worthy Ai mods on Sept. 1st.
So, your options are:
1. Wrap up your match by Sept. 1st.
2. Save off a copy of the mod in its current state, use that to finish your match.
3. Lose your saved game.
Thanks for playing the Worthy!:steamhappy:

JULY NOTE
A July 2nd update turned out not to be backwards compatible. If you have post-July 2nd save with the SPACE MARINES and want to finish the match, let me know and I will revert the save. This offer is only good until July 13th, at which point I am moving all the Worthy mods forward.
I apologize for the inconvenience, that's on me! :steamthumbsup:

Zn - thanks, I see a DLC dropped today - "Onslaught". Dang! Now I need to adjust the other Worthy factions. :steamsalty:

Canoness can use a imposter version of Lead the Righteous! It's invisible, unless the right conditions are met. Here are the conditions:

<player><aiControlled/></player>
<unit>
<actionPoints greater="0"/>
<unitsInRange range="2" count="1">
<enemy/>
<noTrait name="Invulnerable"/>
<noType name="Eldar/WebwayGate"/>

In short, she can only use it when she has an action point and a valid enemy is within Range=2.

I recently figured a way imposter actions can be visible in the action bar without cluttering the UI for non-Ai players. I will get to it, but currently my focus is completing Worthy Chaos, Necros, and Mechanicus.

I will add... you are on the Ball, Player! Keeping me on my toes. :steamhappy:

Ok, thanks a bunch for the explanation!

Lucifaron- you're welcome! I hope you enjoy my mod. :steamhappy:

The Worthy Marines mix includes some of the Primaris units, but not all. Because Primaris added so many types, the Worthy Marines have to research more units than the other Worthy.

My logic is that I don't want to ignore strong new units, but I also want non-DLC players to have a mix of the best old units. So, I write strategies which work with non-DLC units, but then "add-in" strong DLC units. Compatible with DLC or without!
