	By the way: YR's {{ai}} is 136 KB big - {{ts}}'s weights a whopping 275 KB. If you just calculate straight through it, that works out to 13,600 characters of AI code for each playable house in YR, against 137,500 characters for each playable side in TS. Although that's far from reality (doesn't take into account shared scripts), it shows how very underdeveloped the default AI in {{yr}} is.

	This section ~~is totally fake section~~, ~~although~~ have ~~right '''CLSID'''~~. ~~Engine~~ use a ~~hardcoded CLSIDs~~, you can ~~see it~~ in ~~'''AI~~.~~TLB'''~~.		This section was meant to be used in TS, but was never finished. To make use of it, you must get the AI.TLB file from TS and if you are modding YR, rename it to AIMD.TLB. You must place it into RA2 directory and then you can uncomment it with no IE. These CLSID tags are actually 5 Generals, different behaviours AI can have, something like bots. You need to use TriggerTypes (I'm not talking about TeamTypes here) IsBaseDefense and then you will find a new problem. Allies are attacking Soviets and vice versa, but Allies vs Allies is one really boring match, as they are doing almost nothing. To fix this bug, you must write MANY triggers attacking specific sides (not Attack Factories, but Attack Enemy NACNST for Soviets etc.) an if you do this, you can have better and more unpredictable AI, but Yuri is unchanged, as this was meant for GDI and Nod in TS, which are still the references for the Allies and Soviets in rules(md).ini. This section could maybe also have something with an unknown part of TriggerTypes, where Deezire says, that you could specify which General uses this Trigger. Anyway, this section is really hard work and you need to be really sure you want to do this. Still, if you think you are an AI expert, you can try. (Deezire used this section in his modification.)
