Re: Reasons why the AI runs out of resources

Atrocities, seems you have already significantly improved the construction files for the standaard AIs. Would you mind posting your Versions ? Thanks !

Re: Devastating RCE -- Please Help

Europe.

Just click on the icon in the upperleft corner (the one which you also use for saving games). In the menue, there is a point "players". All the green buttons indicate the players which are...

Re: Devastating RCE -- Please Help

Have you modified anything in the data files after you had started the game ?

Re: I\'d rather have MM work on AI as opposed to TCP/IP

Improve the AI !!! I mean the hard-coded AI algorithms, not only the text files (moders are doing a very good work on them already).

TCP/IP is second priority. I will love to play over the net,...

Re: Emissive armour - what is it used for?

Scattering armor is only useful when you play against human players. Or does anybody really think that the still-pityful AI accounts for your designs in any way whatsoever ?

Importance of bridge, troop quarters, life support

What is actually the importance of bridges, life support and crew quarters. As far as I have noticed, the ship "only" looses movement points if you loose one of them. Why is there an Auxiliary Bridge...

Re: Where can I get Mephistos mods at?

In the "mod" section of this page (one "directory level" before you enter the SE4 discussion group).

Re: When will SEIV be playable?

Well, I second that the AI is still not up to the standard where it would present a real challenge. Offensives are not followed through, targets are ill-identified and you can still kill the AI...

Re: AI is BETTER??

Yes, the AI puts much more of a fight. Especially with Mephisto's mod, it will frequently beat you.
However, I am still not convinced that it is significantly better. There are some improvements in...

Re: Wanted: Cheating AI

For my part, I would like to be able to determine the ways in which the AI can cheat. A headstart in resources, racial points, planets, etc. ? Yes, I give that already to the AIs, however, it is me...

Re: Up to date beta patch info..

Talenn, I agree 100%. Even when TCP/IP will be possible, there will still be AIs in the game (e.g., its mostly like this when you play CIV II over the web). The AI has to become a challenge if this...

New Patch: Little AI improvements ?

Its of course rather speculative so far, but from the release information concerning the patch (until 1.17) it seems that we cannot expect that the AI will actually become significantly more...

Re: Up to date beta patch info..

Great, this seems to address the most urgent AI stuff.
I do not want to appear an eternal pain, but hopefully things like AI memory (of attacks and their outcome, of minefields,...), AI...

Re: Next Patch?

Yes, I did adjust the AIs in the beginning of the game. Maximum difficulty, maximum advantage. Furthermore, I gave everyone 5000 points, but for my own race I used only 2000 of them. Still, the AI is...

Re: Next Patch?

Will the next patcj "only" correct bugs and add some new features or will it also improve AI behaviour ? The latter is IMHO by far the biggest nuisance to SE4 playing fun. Actually , as far as I am...

Re: My Final Verdict (until the next patch, that is...)

Well, first of all, the AIs in Stars! do not cheat. However, they are REALLY deplorable adversaries. Nevertheless, Stars! is meant to be a multiplayer game and has the necessary functionalities (e.g....

Re: Strategy tip for carriers

Slightly off topic, but in that sense: wouldn't it be a good idea to give small ships (escort, frigate, destroyer) additional movement points ? It would mirror their advantages in real (maritime)...

Re: Armor is better than warheads

In addition to its explosive damage, doesn't the warhead also do "impact" damage just because of its weight ? Physically, (destructive) energy is proportional to mass. The warhead's mass should...

Re: Emissive Armor

Re: Emissive Armor

Thanks for the first answers. Two questions are still open:
- Does emissive armor reduce damages even of hits which exceed its "reflection" capacity ? Or is it a "all or nothing" attribute, i.e....
