Hi again everyone, we have found everything we need for the game except for one vital detail, someone who knows what they're doing programming wise. Anyone who'd like to take up the challenge for programmong the SDL game (chars only so far, if we get more people in the group we'll try for full game) please reply on this post. We are using original 3D graphics along with brokenMugen HD atm and will have characters ready within 2-3 months.

In my opinion it is not possible to make an AI without doing the entire character programming (so, also the CNS).
This becouse the author of a char knows all the states he uses and knows the meaning and the reasons of every line he wrote. To do a fine AI (without doing innatural moves like some hard AIs where characters don't let you the time to give up and to block attacks) it is important to know well how the character works, state used and relative moves, know the strong and weak points, etc.

If you plan to separate AI from other programming (Ai made by a person, programming made by other persons) it is important to give detailed informations:

1) A list of all statedef used, where starts, how pass from a state to another (form multiple-states moves). A list of moves and the first statedef launched b that move. The main structure of the char (if it is a char that like more to battle near or far from opponent). And all other infos needed to know to make possible to do an Ai to a char made by another person.

2) Character must be complete to test AI
