Changing AI passwords is easy, and it will not affect PBW being able to access the turns at all. You have to process the turn offline for it to work. What you do is open the game as the host, but before you hit end turn hit game menu, options, reset passwords. Then select the AI players you want to change the passwords for. Be careful not to select the human players. It will tell you what the new passwords are, but you don't really need these since these are AI players. And hit end turn. Zip the resulting game files and upload it as the next turn. From that point on the AI players will be password protected.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Thanks. Once I've run the turn, I need to "Upload Replacement Turn", right? Do I need to click "REPLACE current turn"?
Thanks,

Re: A.I. passwords?

No, don't click the "Replace current turn". If you do then PBW does not increment the turn number when you upload. This wont have any real effect on the game, but it might confuse some of your players because the PBW and the actual in game turn will be different. That is used in cases where something got screwed up with processing and you want to rerun the Last turn or something.
