Kill the AI

[geoschmo]

Well, your options for the current game are kind of limited.

You can not miss any more turns. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

You can go into the Empire options/ministears screen and go down to the bottom and select the option "Should not make changes during simultaneous game" But I don't think that actually does anything. From talking to others anyway we have never confirmed it has any effect in the case you miss a turn.

You can have the game changed over to the No AI mod. But from the name of your game I would assume you still have AI players in the game, and changing to this mod would make it very easy to "Kill the AI".

For future games you can use the noAIMod and only play against other humans.

There is also a way to setup your .emp file using a "none" minister option. Which will work with files I have put on PBW to make your specific Race not use the ministers, without affecting the real AI players in the game.

Geoschmo<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Actually I do think it works. At least it seems that way. When I select this option the AI don't make any HORRIBLE choices. They change where my ships go but they don't get rid of my treatys. They don't clear my build Q's and they don't add stuff to my Q's. So I think it works to a certain extent. But as always, I'm probably mistaken.

I am currently playing a dropped posistion in a game of SEIV so I am using a race that somebody else devised.

I have just missed a turn, for the first time, and the AI took over for that turn.

For whatever reasons the AI decided it would be a good idea to cancel all my treatys.

I have lost 30% of my research and mineral income.

How do I stop this ever happening again, both in this current game and in future games.

I have ceremonial skinned alive the minister responsible and boiled him to death in a saltbath but it doesn't help very much.
