Default Re: How Dumb Is Your Game AI?

The AI do dumb things because the TEXT files need fixing. I recently finished a game in which I placed a neutral on a sphere world. IT started the game with 100,000 research points no one got to it until turn 90 or so. The neutral was still using level one missles and level one Projectile weapons. We later found that the research files for all the AI's and neutrals had errors in them that prevented them from researching correctly.
