Re: Dominions III Artificial Intelligence
In DomII there was no support for AI programming but I was still able to setup alot of variations and scenarios. Boosted starts for AIs, extra castles, alliances, hatreds, boosted gods, no gods, extra aggressive, less aggressive capable, extra equipment, and on and on and on. And then of course, randomized variants of all of it.
So even if AI programming isnt specifically supported, you can expect more capabilities along those lines. And you can expect me to jump right into it.
But just for the record I also vote that I would like for the game to have scripting hooks put in for 3rd party bot writing. And I also agree that Space Empires 3 (which I consider to be one of the very few peers to Dominions 2) is a great example of what benefits can happen by allowing player improvements in things like AI.
