Thanks Raynor, he just knows what I want to say.
First, the AI_research file:
Every turn the AI will examine every line in the research.txt from top to bottom. If the tech is already researched or not available then it will skip this line and proceed. If a tech is not yet researched and available to be researched then it will be added to the research queue until it is full (4 techs).
A program could help me with creating a AI_Research.txt in 4 ways:
1.) I want to drag and drop a research line where I want it (lower or higher in the list) without the risk of to much space between the lines (the Ai stops if it ever found to space beneath one another).
2.) The program should keep track of what level of each tech area I already ordered for research so I don’t put a lesser tech call down the list where a higher tech call is already higher in the list.
3.) At the end filling the bottom of the list with tech not already researched (no need to waste RPs even so you don’t need this or that tech for your race).
4.) As a bonbon the program could warn me if a tech is not available yet for research (researching phased polaron beams but not yet researched physics 2)
Second, AI_ConstructionVehicles.txt:
A program could help me with creating a AI_ConstructionVehicles.txt this way:
Most important is drag and drop and inserting a build call. When you want to insert a line in position 14 of a 30 position list (so you will have 31 positions in fact) then you have to renumber all following build calls. If the program would allow me to insert a build call and renumbers the following calls accordingly that would be a great help (and would save me a lot of time). :-)
Ok, I hope I’m much better to understand now.
