Get a different AI script. BTW, check out "Green Dessert and leaves terrains" topic.

I had a similar problem with the civ I had set up as "Merlin". When I changed the personality to "none" from "standard" (suggested to stop "change code" chat at the beginning of the scenario) my "Merlin" stopped quitting.
Good luck!

Thanks twilight, that worked!
I got another problem, this one different from the topic of this thread. I try to use a "task object" trigger to move an enemy army of about 130 units to attack a village. It won't work, not a single unit budges. Is it because I am trying to move too many units at once? I am able to task much smaller amounts of units to areas of the map after being created. It appears all of the settings are correct for the task object trigger...
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Yes you are limited with the number of units that can be taksed, I believe it's like 40 or something. I'm a newbie too, but have had a good mentor. Plus I design maps for other games besides AOK.

Break it down into more task unit triggers. There is not a specific limit that I know of, but it seems that trying to task 30 units in one trigger can cause a crash when running the game, so try multiple tasking triggers, each tasking something like 20 units max. Also try putting a timer into the triggers to stagger their execution, maybe every 3 seconds or so. Experiment a bit and see what works best for your scenario.

Glad I could help. It looks like you got the answers you needed to your other question. Good thing, 'cause I'm still new at this myself and haven't tried "task object" yet. <g>
