AI's don't know how to use ladders and use the siege tower

[MaximumEmotionalDamage]

I'm the only one that sees the AI's just standing on the siege tower platform without rushing on the walls or just refusing to use a ladder? Also half of the force won't even bother to move. Joined a few sieges on 1.5.6, does anyone else got this problem?

[Zef]

i've actually seen them climb on 3 ladders on the siege engines for the first time on 1.5.5 so that's something

the siege AI needs a lot of work though that's for sure

It's been an issue heavily reported for a while, not just you

[Machiavelli]

Yea I don't find sieges fun atm. They will prob fix it sooner or later.

[Chevalier of Possums]

If you run up next to the ladders and then just run away often times they will start to use them. Its like they are waiting for you to get close to the wall before they attack. It doesnt always work but usually it works for me.

I just did my 1st siege and I didn't use the Siege Engines as I was helping with the ram so I wouldn't know. Thanks for informing me about this for when begin leading sieges.

[MaximumEmotionalDamage]

Maybe when you lead you can actually make them use them, but when participating i find it annoying :)), i go up and i'm finding myself alone on the walls

I got into a siege of my command, the AI just stand there on the ladder and not putting them up, had to put up the ladder myself but then they just stand there, not climbing the ladder so i gave them the charge order and they climbed the ladder BUT the first man on the ladder suddenly backed down, halting the traffic behind him. All in all, siege engines are pretty handy for these dumb AIs

[Orc]

Yes! Fix the ai pathing during sieges. Please

[Orc]

You can lose a siege with a better army just because troops don't know how to climb the ladder

I can't be immersed if I see 20 troops just waiting next to a ladder just to be shot in the face

They always wait to put the ladders up until the ram breaks the outside door.
I have noticed they only use two ladders to go up with the siege tower, it's like the left ladder is the 'down'.
They do suck at breaching the courtyard after the gatehouse drops though, usually have to wait for the wall units to come around while the defenders just stand there and get hacked from behind.
