Making the AI use custom SuperWeapons

Custom SuperWeapons are used by the AI since v1.06. To add more possibilities, a new tag for custom SuperWeapons has been introduced:

AITargetingType=[SW Number] ;determines where the AI is going to fire the SuperWeapon

The [SW Number] is a number from 1 to 13 and determines what the AI targets when about to fire the SW. The number represents an entry in the [SuperWeaponTypes] list. The game reads the number and uses the SW specific target.

An example:

AITargetingType=10

SW Number 10 is the Genetic Mutator, so the game will fire this SW on the largest group of enemy infantry, just like the Genetic Mutator is fired.

The following table covers all the current possibilities:

AITargetingType	Target
(default) 1	Enemy Base (AIIonCannonXXXValue) [Nuclear Missile]
6	Enemy Base (place with least amount of enemy units/base defenses) [Paradrops]
8	Largest group of enemy units (infantry and/or vehicles) [Psychic Dominator]
10	Largest group of enemy infantry [Genetic Mutator]

SW numbers that are not listed either have no functionality at all or are the same as a number already listed.

Important

The table above can only be used if you do not change the order of the original 13 SWs!
