How about an option to retreat through the opposing end of the tactical area?

IMO this would create interesting tactical battles and still have the option to retreat. What do you think?

Re: The AI defeats itself

That indeed is strange behaviour http://www.shrapnelgames.com/ubb/images/icons/icon9.gif. Is the AI running low on its resources? That could cause it to scrap huge amounts of its ships.

Re: Simple, Reasonable Disengage/Retreat Rule

How about if the only way to retreat is through the opposite end of tactical area...?

Forexample if you start your battle from the left side of tactical area, then the only way to retreat is...

Re: Aaron\'s(MM) take on Mephisto\'s Mod v1.60

Excellent!

I too think that the Mephistos mod improves
AI's designs significantly.

Re: AI late game Ship Designing problems (turns 100+)

Re: AI late game Ship Designing problems (turns 100+)

That roman numeral has actually much more meaning than the fancy number on the icon.
It also tells AI which component in the family is better. This explains that late game design quirk. I changed...

Re: AI late game Ship Designing problems (turns 100+)

Uh.. does the AI really add those roman numerals to it's design names? I'm quite sure that i have never seen it using them
with it's design names. In my games it just
chooses a new name for the...

Re: Reasons why the AI runs out of resources

If you set any of those 3 values to 100 or below it has same effect as setting this value to 0. Set only those values above 100

Re: AI late game Ship Designing problems (turns 100+)

Yes, it is true that the problem is mainly in the hard coded AI as it will not resupply its ships until it has reached its objective.
I'm just trying to find a way to get around of this problem by...

AI+Minefield/AI+Black Hole=Disaster (longish)

Re: AI criteria for setting colony type

I think that the AI does some resource comparing when it chooses it's colony type.
The problem is that this comparing is relative. For example: If the amounts are
