Hi, i know there are ways to make a certain character unselectable by human players. Such as making them unreachable in the select grid.

But my question is if there is a way to do exactly the opposite.

Is there a way to make a certain character be unselectable by the PC? So if you are playing ARCADE mode, PC will never choose that character?
But i want myself or friends of mine to be able to choose them.

Ex. i have a scorpion, version by MKA. He is awesome,. It has lots of custom skills even you can change his fighting techniques from classic to hapkido. Same goes for the subzero MKA.
Problem is, that when PC fights you, and you are not using scorpion or subzero against the PC, there is a certain move that they make that they throw you in the ground and its impossible to get back into the fight. The player character seems to enter a loop bouncing into the ground. And the enemy PC AI wont hit you again. Making the fight impossible to finish if you have infinite time limit.
It is possible however, to unglitch the problem simply by giving the glitched character a simple low kick. So thats why i dont worry if it is selectable by a human. The problem is when the PC uses them.

EDITED: hi i just figured out a way i could solve this.
My arcade mugen is configured like this: arcade.maxmatches   = 7,4,1
So i was thinking in assigning my subzero and scorpions order 10. As i only have up to order 3 in my arcade mode. Will that work? i will test it.

Arcade Mode Yes.
Set the Order = 0 to some characters in select.def. I think..... Not 100% sure on this.

Other modes like Survival where it's all completely random. Not really.

Yes i just found out recently in another forum.
not only you have to put: order=0, but also you have to put the stage in that specific character.
If you only put order=0 it will not work.
so the final look of the line should be something like this:

Scorpion MKA, stages/Armory_mk2.def, order=0
Sub-Zero MKA, stages/Armory_mk2.def, order=0

Hope this works for somebody else as well.

Thanks for the reply anyway, i didnt know that this doesnt work for the survival mode. That sucks.
