Hi All,
I am a newbie in this forum and thanks to all that browse this post.....
In my situation, I want to program a PC game, which is a single player game like "King Of Fighter"
the graphic is not a problem, however I meet a problem on AI.
I am not familiar in AI program.....
But to improve my game..... I need to develop a evolution AI in my game and an AI that can make decision in different situations....
So, I want to ask about which language to develop AI is the best?
I am quite familiar in C and java.....
but not familiar in AI <--which I really want to learn more....
all so my game is no need to installation....
graphic is completed, game rules and calculation is nearly completed but the "computer player" have not yet developed
thank you everyone in this thread and look forward for your reply~

Hi,
welcome to Devshed.
firstly, have a look at the sticky at the top of this forum, it contains links to some AI resources on the Internet & some links to some books on AI you may consider buying (I'm sure some of them have example chapters for you to look at).
Most of the example AI code I have seen has been in C/C++, so you may want to go that way. What language is the rest of it written in?

I never played that game, so i can't tell you more. If you wanna most advanced AI, try to learn neural networks. If your math is not perfect, it will be hard.

programing ai's is a pain in the a$$.  my advice would be to map out all the possible situations and the reactions the player would take before you start coding anything.  If you have a clear picture of all the options it's a lot easier to code.

I just want to develop a single player mode in my game...
actually the requirement on the AI is know how to "learn"...
Evolution AI is most difficult part in my development...I think...
Since I am not familiar to AI, why maths is important in AI??

Because most (if not all) methods of AI are heavily based on maths. Have a look at this article, it goes into a little detail about all the common methods.
If I was doing a "learning AI" I would look at Neural Networks
Hope this helps.

Consider having your AI be static (i.e. hard coded). Evolving AI is extremely tricky.
A neural network as mentioned might be one possible solution. A neural network effectively approximates the best solution. For example, if you hard coded multiple strategies into the AI, from repeatedly playing against humans, it could learn to use the most effective one. The bonus is that by tweaking the weights to the different strategies, you can make the AI harder or weaker (exploit the best tactic more or less).
There's more AI techniques that can be used. "Evolving AI" comes into genetic programming/genetic algorithms. I don't recommend you go down this path. Try making a simple GA and you'll understand the issues at hand.
There's also other points to consider in AI. I recommend you focus on getting a polished game before breaking your head on the computer player.

THANK YOU EVERYONE~~
but one more question
is C programme good for AI programming??
or any other program easier to handle?

Just one thing, steve.
It's not proper to call C program. C is programming language
It's very good for AI. It's fast, supports various optimizations (asm, binary).
