AI plays Age of Empires II

Wololo! Yes I am the kind of person who grew up smashing AI armies into each other in age of empires 2. Here I go deeper into my childhood obsession by letting modern AI agents, powered by LLMs like claude and gpt, build custom AI scripts that play the game. I make them fight, and then I try to build a better strategy by letting agents tune the default AI strategy over and over until they find improvements. I'm not good at this game AND I know nothing about bot scripting, so I definitely missed a bunch of stuff! Let me know if there are obvious improvements. ~SUPPORT ME~ Learn to code faster with Scrimba!
