Default Re: Adamant Mod Discussion Thread (v0.14.07 released!)

Fyron I have to be honest with you. I really do not think that it is possible to make a good Single Player Ai. There are so many varables that cause the Ai to do things and design things that may work in a low tech game, but totally are worthless in a high tech start game.

The Colony ships having two colony modules despite every conceivable setting to avoid this.

You can get one early tech start design to work, but because of the way many of the components are set up, engines and armor for example, in a high tech start these design become utter FUBAR.

I have spent nearly a month working on the design creation file and I am at wits ends.

There are simply to many things that confuse the AI and prevent it from designing ships the way it should be. Ask me what those are and all I can tell you is "everything does."

The AI is simply too stupid to take advantage of what this mod has to offer. It gets confused and designs things that are utterly useless.

Good luck.
