Don't let the Ai mess up another game for you when you miss a turn in PBW.

Might be more fun if the "AI" speech file read more like:

"You have reached the <EMPIRENAME>. <EmperorName> is busy handling other affairs, so if you leave your name, home system address, and large amounts of resources, we'll get back to you whenever we feel like it. Oh yeah, and beware of strange warp points."

Hehehe. I thought about doing something like that. I didn't have time. If you want to put one together, I'll use it. Otherwise, I might get around to it eventually.

Haven't tried it myself, haven't started a new game yet.

Ok, time for PHASE 2

I have added a mod to PBW called "141 + No AI Mod".

This does everything that the "none" files do for specific races, but does it for every race in the game.

This is NOT recomended for games where you have non-human AI players. That includes players set up at the begining to be AI, and also players where the human has dropped and been turned over to the AI.

However, it has two advantages for games that are all human players. First you don't have to setup your race as "none" to use this mod, and second it can be used for exsisting games on PBW.

If you have an already exsisting game you want to change over to the No Ai Mod, contact one of the PBW admins to have it switched over for you.

BTW, all you modders out there, another option would be to create a set of AI scripts similar to what you usually do in a game, and use THOSE as your AI style. Then, if you miss a turn, there's a chance that the computer will do something you would have done anyway...

Of course, politics would still be a major pain.
