Wow, excellent thought. You are right. Since the AI is supposed to "cheat" only based on its difficulty by adding points... a "normal" AI god-building routine should create a perfectly legal god for a player. It would probably have a couple of obvious "why did it put that?" choices in it but thats good to spur the new user to make one of their own which is better.

Hmmmmm I was considering adding that it could have a range of buttons offering all of the different levels including the "impossible AI" boosted one but that could be a problem since it would save a god which would be a cheat in mutliplayer games. It would probably be best to lock it at normal. Maybe even the "easy" AI routine to make it more compelling to do one of your own since easy wouldnt even use as many points building it as the user gets doing it manually.

I also think that sounds like a good idea. I think the allure of designing for one's self (how many people ever use those "pre-generated parties" in an RPG anyway?) would make sure there's a reason to do it yourself.
