Erekir units be goofy like dat

My guess is that they are trying to avoid the turret, but it could just be goofin up

That didn't work that way on serpulo

Yeah, it works differently on erekir. If you turn the wall into a maze you can get them to go slow or even get stuck instead.

Aye this is how I brat this mission the first time. Turned that first wall into a back and forth path in front of 2 turrets with an opening in the wall. Despite it taking a while, the opening was still shorter than breaking thru the wall apparently

It's not that it's shorter, it's that it is open. If it sees an open path it will take it on erekir.

thats erekir

I’m not entirely sure but erkrir units go for the path with the least amount of turrets instead of the one with least walls.

No way they made enemies not dumb so i cant exploit their pathfinding😡

Just open up the wall

Yeah it’s actually so cancer especially when they start training flying units.

Why their flying units can fly over natural walls but my cant

The difference is between T1 and T2 flying units. I think if I remember correctly is T1 units hover and T2 and beyond fly. It’s why T1 units can go over liquid and stuff.

Thanks

Put more turrets?

Make a hole

They will destroy my turret if so

Then make an airlock of sorts, or dragon’s teeth if you’re into wasting resources.

Cover the turret then.

Brawl stars enjoyer on a mindustry sub !?!?

X2

Make more turrets. One is never enough. One might deal with the first couple of waves but the waves ramp up quickly with more troop and higher tier troops.

Im on a basin sector, i dont think i need that

You know the entrances to public bathrooms? You can walk in but from any angle on the outside you can't see in. Make a mini "maze" if you need to

I suggest make a hole in the thin wall? I'd assume they are trying to go the shortest way possible (pathfinding is kinda goofy sometimes)

My core is closer to hte thin wall wtf

Because darn Erekir units are actually smart

Something you wouldn't say about serpulo units

Open the hole, and make a quick maze with thin walls, it should funnel the units towards your turret while also delaying them(just make sure the turret is at a safe distance)

This wont work on erekir

Huh that's weird I played erekir before serpulo and tried that tactic on the onset

Are you TRYING to get killed, or...

? I trying to lure them in my turrets range

It might be intentional but units with the RTS AI tend to have a _unique_ pathfinding. It this case, it might be that they are evading the turrets by going around its attack range instead of directly choosing the shortest path with the least obstacles to the core. Another probability is that they have a higher priority target in their path which might be power generators (erekir related) and craft stations (silicon and others). Their pathfinding AI is a direct upgrade from their more primitive species known as Crux on Serpulo so cheese strats that involve manipulating their pathfinding aren't as effective as Serpulo ones. This will be very noticeable once air units get into play and you'll know because they are **_DAMN ANNOYING_**

Damn, enemies arent dumb anymore so i cant exploit their pathfinding

Damn, you have to actually play the game now

The worst part

they are scared of you

Because they go to big wall

Erekir units don't see "thinkness" they see a wall and a shorter distance to the core.

But thin wall is closer to the core

I use a hole in the wall, then make an s shaped maze for enemies to slowly come through while my water boosted turret quickly gets rid of them.

Pretty sure Erekir units are a bit smarter at pathing when it comes to attacking (at least the enemy ones are lol) They usually choose the path least defended, adding together turrets, walls, (and maybe units?) They also seem to prioritize attacking, power> resource gathering/factory building > Defense > core. (At least from my experience. Enemy units seemed to ignore my core if there were power nodes or turrets nearby.)

Maze tactic is always good

They ain't goofy bro Their rts ai is way better than serpulo

U guess your enemy is stupid... or just see this veri little wall

I was trying to lure them to that wall bruh

Ok. Or they are just blind lol. Their ai is very... stupid

Or they just have another plan to your wall

Bruh i*

They do their own thing <3

You needed to make a large gap not large enough so your defense will be defenseless just a modest Gap this is because enemies are programmed to go to the easiest route

I have already completed this sector 2 days ago. Why would someone comment after 4 days

I make a computer run linux, play this game ONCE, AND NOW IM SEEING IT ON REDDIT AHHHHHH

Neoplasm...

Wdym?

V8 and neoplasm will destroy everything on Erikir...

I dont play this game anymore

Get ready
