Default Re: Increasing AI difficulty

The TDM Mod will increase the computer difficulty and so will the settings. What Warshed is looking for is in the actual code of the base program or the algorithms the computer uses to make its decisions. If the program were to be rewritten to accept a “lunatic” or “suicidal” mode then it might attack. That would mean that the computer would just throw ships at you without regard to any future consideration. Although you could program a random event into the AI when certain conditions were met to launch a suicide attack. Like maybe if it had enough of obsolete ships to commit to the attack.
