Hi, Mithril told me to pay a visit here to see if anyone can help me out with this.

There's nothing I hate more than beating an enemy in skirmish to find that when they have 2 buildings left.. you go in for the kill and they sell them!

Is there a way of turning this option off at all, also as noted by Mithril if it would be possible to make the AI do one last final rush against a human opponent instead of selling up? I've imported the scripts into world builder and removed the SELL OFF folders but then ingame the comp has no AI.

Thank you in advance. ;)2

Good, now we can discuss this without having to rely on a floating thread at DZ.

Are your folders in the right place? (USA scripts are in USA, China in China etc.), it could be that the AI uses the incorrect scripts since they have been imported incorrectly.

Is this before opening world builder or after, if its before then the skirmishscripts are in C:\Program Files\Command & Conquer Generals Zero Hour\Data\Scripts.

After you import the scripts into world builder, check whether the right scripts import into the right folder.

Are the AI's units and buildings white? (no housecolor?)

Also you may want to check if you have modified the build list, as well as running the script debugger, which can be downloaded from this link, and activated by copying it into your generals directory and using the -scriptdebug commandline in a shortcut.

If all that doesn't work I recommend disabling the sell off folders instead of deleting them

I would guess you have to go through and disable the scripts by unchecking the enable box, but there might be a way to disable the entire folder.

Well, when it comes to writing an expository essay about counter-insurgent tactics, I'm of the old school. First you tell them how you're going to kill them. Then you kill them. Then you tell them how you just killed them.

I'll make sure to mention that to MedalMonkey sometime. He did this one and one other one for me.

Disabling can be done by right clicking a script or entire folder and unchecking the "Active" option.
