Zero Zero Zero

At about turn 150 in a solo game against 11 TDM
AI's I noticed a yellow "never" in the build
menu.

I checked the planet out and it looked normal
except the population read 0M (none).

There...

Re: GeoForce or Radeon

I've had at least 8 graphics cards in the Last
12 years and I've ended up with a Nvdia 5950
Ultra - and its great. Most have been Nvdia and
I've had very few problems.

Radeon did have a driver...

Its names for the ships. Not sure it ever was.

I wondered why it built some mines on a 5% mineral
planet. Thanks for the help.

Re: TDM AI\'s

Does the AI look at the mineral\organic\radiation
value before decieding what to build first or
does it decide on its needs at the time?

Re: TDM AI\'s

I've no problem heading in the wrong direction,
sometimes its more fun. I didn't think altering
planet sizes would affect much because I'd seen
the AI use them in my Last game.

Re: TDM AI\'s

Thanks for the quick reply.
I've noticed that some of the AI's don't build
much in the way of storage facilities.

Do you think it might cause a problem to increase
the starting storage capacity...

Re: TDM AI\'s

What about increasing planet sizes to allow more
facilities on them.

Do you think that would cause the AI any
problems?

TDM AI\'s

I posted earlier about some ship size problems
around turn 80 of a game using 11 of the TDM
AI's.

I think I may have caused some problems with
an alteration to ship tonnage in that game.

Re: mines and fighters

The AI does seem to build a lot of sweepers. Can
this number be altered?

In settings the number of mines/sector is set at
100. Is this per wormhole or in the whole sector
map?

Re: mines and fighters

my mistake, the AI had many ships called
mine sweeper and mine layer (class name)
it didn't build the actual layers and sweepers
on the ships.

Does anyone have an opinion on whether mines

Re: TDM 3.40 observations

game to turn 75 save and mail it to you.

started building bigger ships.
