Re: Anyone working on AI for standard SE V?
What is so discouraging is the fact that the AI is so lacking in some functions and its overall design. To get a real nice AI you have to start all over again from my POV. For example: Why do AI ships only ever get one order per turn? Because the scripts don't check if a ship has movement points left (and those could to something) but if it has an order already. Instead of moving to a planet, pick up cargo, move it to the next, go back, pick up more and move on because you have enough movement points the AI will do this step by step turn by turn and therefore in slow motion compared to a human player. You can fix this but it's a lot of work. Maybe I will start modding again but I'm yet undecided.
