Diana_CT Posted January 31, 2018 Report Share Posted January 31, 2018 I read one of the posts that you can play yourself by using the IP address 127.0.0.1 Can you do that? And if so how do you go about it? I am playing on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS on a Toshiba Satellite U845W and Ubuntu is loaded on a 128G USB drive. I am using an ARRIS - SURFboard cable modem Thank you.

Skhorn Posted January 31, 2018 Report Share Posted January 31, 2018 Why would you want to create a multiplayer game just for you? In case you haven't noticed it, there is a Single Player option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diana_CT Posted January 31, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2018 Because I don't like playing against the AI and I want to try setting up a defense and an offense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skhorn Posted January 31, 2018 Report Share Posted January 31, 2018 I think you can set the IA to sandbox, this way it won't do anything Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diana_CT Posted January 31, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2018 Can you control the oppositions? Build their army's and the city? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you mean, taking control on the AI? If that's so, i don't think so, afaik. If you want the AI to build by its own, set it on Petra and pick easy or another one, if you want it no to do anything, pick sandbox (But i'm not pretty sure if the Ai won't do anything on sandbox difficulty) Just click within the gear in the middle, and the config panel will pop up Spoiler Edited January 31, 2018 by Skhorn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
user1 Posted January 31, 2018 Report Share Posted January 31, 2018 You could do this a different way that wouldn't require you to run two instances of 0ad. Start a single player match and setup Player 2 with whatever civ and team you wish and start the game. Then press alt+d to bring up the developer overlay. Now choose 'change perspective' in the dev overlay and you can select Player 2 in the dropdown on the panel at the top of the screen. Then choose 'control all units' in the dev overlay and now you can control this player also. You can switch back and forth between players whenever you like. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Servo Posted February 4, 2018 Report Share Posted February 4, 2018 @user1 is it possible to control two or more AIs then revert back? Recontrol again and can do the process all over again at any moment? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
