Introduction
------------------------------
SetupMulti is designed to allow you to easily replace, and restore, the built-in AI with any custom AI in your
"Age of Empires II\AI" folder for use in multiplayer games via the internet or lan. After installation, players that are set as "Computer" on your game setup screen will perform as your custom AI. Single player game modes are also affected by the change.
------------------------------
Creating a RandomAI
------------------------------
After starting SetupMulti, you will be able to generate a RandomAI, if you choose, by clicking the text link. Installing a RandomAI allows you to play with or against multiple types of AIs, randomly and simultaneously, during multiplayer games, which can significantly enhance their unpredictability. Special thanks to Suriel for this great idea!
------------------------------
Important Note for Mods
------------------------------
Before modifying gamedata_x1.drs, always uninstall your custom AI to restore the built-in AI first. You can then
reinstall your custom AI after you are finished.
------------------------------
Before Running SetupMulti
------------------------------
1. All players must obtain the same version of the desired AI
2. The AI must be installed into the AI folder, as usual
3. The game must not be running or it will lock required files
4. If the game was installed using a non-standard method, you may have to run SetupMulti from "Age of Empires II"
------------------------------
Shortcut Keys
------------------------------
1. Select the AI dropdown and press F5 to refresh the list
2. Press Delete to remove an AI from the RandomAI list box
3. Press Numpad +/- to change an AI's random load%
4. Press Enter from the AI dropdown to add one to the list
