Default Re: Extremely Frustrating AI Races

You can edit the AI Anger and Happiness files to prevent this, or at least slow it.

Many of us have issue with the sudden poltical changes the AI makes, but we have all grown used to it and now expect it.

THis is where mining your allies planets, warp points, and bases comes in handy. Also build stellor manipulation ships arm them with star killers and a cloaking device, place them on your allies star "to do research" and when they turn on you, and they will, you simply declare war and vaporize their systems until they surrender to you.

Thanks to all who replied with patient help and advice. Shows the high quality of folks who post here.

I will try editing the AI data files to get a more even responses from the races and also I`ll pay more attention to the stellar research tree. I`ll look at playing at higher levels as advised by Mephisto.

I think if the .." AGGAHH NO !! " level of flipping Race Relations is reduced for me SE IV would be a great game, although I wonder if I will ever think the there is some evil alive presence living in my Computer as I often did at 2 AM when playing SE III.

But the best advise you got (and I will give it again) is GO MULTIPLAYER.

If the politics and deplomacy aspects of the game are what you are interested in, the AI will never satisfy you, regardless of who designed it.
