Yea... to me was more weird the game between the Narn and Praetorians.

Sometimes... I remember some games with a cluster galaxy, but don't remember if was turn based or simultaneous.
Strange, but as you noted, I confirm that the colony bug depend in what side of the map start the AI.
By the way REXXX, after the Klingon-vs-EEE, I did a EEE-vs-Klingon (just to be sure!), and the EEE still won but needed more time... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...s/rolleyes.gif

Your batch program is great, just great!

Thanks Rexxx! Thanks you have W98... because Fyron was unable to run it.
By the way, I have lost the source code...

Re: AI DEATH MATCH 2

Sallega vs United Flora

The United Flora killed the Sallega before the turn 160...
Really I'm pissed by the "colony ship" bug... then did a new game (as test) between both races changing the starting possition... and the UF killed the Sallega before the turn 120!!

About the "colony ship" bug, that this AI Match show is a important one, as one of the beta testers reported it to MM, and if yes, exist any response ?

Re: AI DEATH MATCH 2

This is from an earlier post from Rexxx that describes the bug...

Quote:

Without the "calling for names in the construction_vehicles-file" thing (v 1.61) working these colonizer dead ends will become an annoying issue again, especially in games between peaceful races.
It will become a question of sheer luck if an AI gets stuck or not (is there an colonizer slot available in the construction file when the next colonizing tech is discovered or not). If not please wait for the first create planet ship to be built and the first planet to be created (hopefully of the right type for your waiting colonizers). In the meantime sit back and watch your frozen empire.

Although the AI could have available different kind of planets to colonize and the technology to colonize them, only build the same type of colonizer (for example rock), then, never colonize the ICE and GAS availabe planets.
Seems to happen in simultaneous, and depending of the starting possition.

Darn. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif Probably will have to rework construction_vehicles files for my AI . JUST IN CASE !
