Default Re: Questions about AI preformance and bettering it...

There are various threads about affecting the AI.

Yes you can create mega-alliances. Setting an #allies command turns on attack protection. Having multiple nations protected from a nation does not cause it to turn off one to set another. They are all in affect as far as I know.

Setting unrest levels above 100 might cause the AI to not try to build troops there. I havent tested it yet.

Turning down resources in the game will rob the AI of much build capability outside of its castle. OF course that also will affect you.

The best improvement for the AI tends to be using the map commands to force the AI to not be so random in its selection of gods and scales. The SemiRand program does some of that but you can also do it manually by adding the commands to a map. You can do it even more manually by starting the game as human for all nations, give each one reasonable pretender and scales, then set it to AI.
