With a turn duration of 24 hours, it might be best to add the No AI mod. It will prevent the AI from messing up players, if they miss a turn. With it, any player without a plr file will simply continue on whatever they were doing Last turn.
Don't need the "no ai" mod to do this... there's a way to create your empire with "no ai"... its in the dubious strategy guide in the link I posted earlier... it involves downloading some files and extracting them. I am not sure, but I think the files were posted by Geoschemo in an older forum (could someone post the link to the archived old forum?).

Then when you make your empire, you can choose AI minister "none" type rather than "neutral" "agressive" or "defensive"... there is also an option in the uh options menu while you are playing a turn "let AI make no changes during a simultaneous game"... although you'd have to set up your research and ship queues ahead of time if it literally means "no changes"...

Anyone have any experience with this NO AI mod that Sivran is talking about? I haven't seen it. If the PBW can handle it without the need for a MOD like Brain is talking about I think I'd rather go that route.

I'm planning on uploading my shipset to PBW so that it's always there, its basically just a slightly modified Version of TeraC's SEV set.

Brianeyci,

I double checked thanks to Ragnarok's tip and found that the shipset I want to use is on the PBW site, but under a different name (TAERA Republic instead of TAERA hive), so it should be ok.

Thanks
