New patch

Grayshot · #1 December 21st, 2000, 02:32 AM

I have just installed the new patch and within 2 turns, 2 formerly 'brotherly' races ( with partnership treaty ) turned to moderate and then declared war on me - and I didn't even touch them.

Has anyone else noticed the AI getting significantly meaner? Not sure whether its because I'm in the middle of a game.

For those that started a "fresh" game without any AI mods, how is the ver 1.19 new improved AI stacking up against the ver 1.11? (I am at work and have blacklined the ver 1.19 AI files against ver 1.11 - lots of interesting changes!)

Can anyone confirm whether the AI is designing ships with Combat Sensors and ECM unitsin ver 1.19? According to the new files (ver 1.19) I reviewed, the AI_Design files do not use the new ability names for these components (i.e. Combat To Hit Offense Plus, etc.) I hope I am not correct. . .

Fair point.

Problem arise when the AI changes mid game and you suddenly have lots of murderous races.

I think, because it seems so different - in my game at least, it is best to start a new game.

I hope it is not just more aggresive.
