Thread: Arrrr, how do i make my game harder

Hi Ppl,

I sat down this afternoon and for some off reason decided to make a windows tic tac toe game, which i havnt done before.
Any way i did, and it works. But i am not to hot at programming hard AI. Can someone look over my program and tell me if i need to make it harder? Or if i do how i can do it with not to much changing.

Thanks for any help

Your game is good but I noticed one problem:
if you go in the same place twice it promts you not to but then lets the computer play again before your turn.

Hi,


Thanks, i will fix that now.
Do you know how i can go about making it harder?

Thanks

Give the AI a little foresight: if the other player has two boxes checked, there's a very good chance he intends to go for three in a row. So, identify which boxes are checked, figure out the most logical next move for the human, and let the AI take that spot. Also, you might consider placing a high priority on taking the middle early on since it's usually easier to block your opponent with command of the center.
