I surely hope PvK will release it eventually. Even if it is not complete, with so many Proportions enthusiasts around we can make it work http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

oleg, blame me, but could you point me to the SoulHunters shipset, please?

Everything else I have found.

It is in the B5 Mod. It should also be available on the PBW files library. I know I uploaded a copy of it a long time ago so I could use it on PBW, though I might have called it Shag'Toth instead of Soul Hunters (as Shag'Toth is their "correct" name http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif ).

Re: Slow down exploration speed in AICampaign/PROPORTIONS
 
Thanks. PvK's page is bookmarked, but obviously I always look on top of the page http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif

I think my Favorites for the setup could be Shag'Toth/SoulHunters and UkraTal, so I would have a religious and an organic race.

I have created a small test setup and I am going to let it run overnight:

No WPs, Large mid-life quadrant, no events, everything medium, one planet start, 5000K empires (BTW, I have noticed some glitches in the empire setups for: Drushocka, Pequeninos, Piundon and a smaller one (150 pts not set) in UkraTal).

Following AI races are involved in this little pre-test:

-Krill (olegs latest and greatest)
-Cryslonite
-Nostropholos
-SoulHunters/Shag'Toth
-UkraTal (with 150 pts. not set)

Let's see if my watching empire will be crunched up tomorow morning. I could do a snapshot of the races and what they are looking for, before I go to bed tonight.

Is there a program that will run many turns automatically for you, so you can test the AI.

I would be interested in this!
