AI DEAD MATCH CONTEST!

Master Belisarius · #1 December 5th, 2002, 04:58 AM

I did the test game between Klingons and Aquilaeian, with small bonus. The Aquilaeian defeated them before the turn 311.
The Klingons during all the game had enough resources (well, except when the big riots started).
They built some minesweepers. But anyway, had problems to remove the minefields, because had not many mine-sweeper devices.

MB,
Thanks for that. Have been working on an update which addresses the minesweeper issue and improves ship designs further (Research queues have been optimised more). The Dead Match has been most useful in tweaking my AI's further.
Regards,

GE

MB, you have my thanks too.
Observing how the races have done throughout the game has been really useful for finding the things that needed to be tweeked - wonder what the AI revisions that result from this are going to be like

Hey guys thanks for your support! And yes, I think that looking the games, all the AI moders can get elements to improve the AI scripts.

The game between Pyrochette and United Flora was running during the night, and the Pyrochette erased the Last UF's planets, before the turn 370.

MB, Yes thanks. I expect to have a tougher time and more suprises.
Hmm, I was wrong in my calculations. I expected the UF to win all the way.
I'm going to have to try the Pyros.

And they will be forever.

Again the lack of radioactives (among other things).
During the Last days I fired quite a few of my ministers, my poor emperor was surrounded by idiots... Of course, it was clearly their responsibility! Why did you ask?

A Pyrochette fleet of 103 ships, wow. Well, I guess the EEE colonists in the Arklite system and the crews of their 20-ships-fleets used other words about that monster heading towards them. Fortunately for them the game ended after turn 500... BTW the fleet minister was fired too.

I cannot say that the EEE are looking forward to facing the Aquilaeian.
