This tools has actually 3 tools in one:
- One that allow a quick modification of a value in a file
- One that allow to transform .dat files into XLSX and back into .dat files, so you can modify a lot pretty fast. It is also the one with the last update on what is known of the different values, and bring a lot of info to help choosing which value to put (and an AI reader/editor)
- And one to edit the AI

Make your choice !

Feel free to try and ask for improvement.

Thanks to @myst6re (again) for all the help on it and the RE

Good work, could you share to us the rules of AI modification?

[hobbitdur]

I am not sure what rules you are speaking about.
For the list of all possible command, you can find it here: https://github.com/HobbitDur/ifrit-enhanced/blob/master/ifrit-AI/Resources/ai_info.json
You can find all data info of item for example or else in my dedicated FF8GameData github:

The rules I'm talking about is more like AI logic.

I read the code and try to find out the pattern and priority chart, there some item I doesn't know what it is like:

For example

Does AI have a size limit?
I noticed there is a item [Subject ID:X], the number has a marked colour but there are no variable can change it

BTW
Maybe there is a bug in there:
If I open a file but doesn't choose which code on title(last show enemy turn)(just for simulate after I modified a file and open a new one.) , then I click plus botton for insert a new line in front of first line, it can not delete by click minus botton.
and, If I open a new file it doesn't refresh but just insert on front.

[hobbitdur]

For the size limit, probably I didn't discover it yet. It's a good question that need further testing to find out. But I have modified a lots of monster with long AI and didn't see any length problem.

For the subject ID, there is a var to change it, the first value. Not sure what is the problem.

If you have other question don't hesitate, but the best recommendation is to play with it. I can create a 18 pages explaining every part of the AI, but it will be longer that just testing value around.

For the bug, nice catch I reproduced it. If you could be kind to add it to my github issues would be nice so I don't forget.

I can not success to save when I add new code in "enemy turn".

For example: I click + and add some code, and click SAVE, whatever I click refresh or close the program and open it again, the code will show the same as it was, nothing change.

but if I just modify the code it can works.
