AI War / AI should not be able to build units if theres only a command station

« on: November 15, 2010, 07:26:38 AM »

playing snake type maps, where each wormhole leads to only one path, it seems impossible not to destroy AI's command centres since leaving them alone would have them magically churn out units! theres not even an AI EYE or some special guard post or warpgates around there.

so the only way to stop this is to destroy the command centre, but since this is a snake type map, (with only one wormhole on each planet) it is quite bad since it forces me to increase the AI's progress without much choice. Leaving it alone will sure attack my previous captured planets before it.

AI War / how to stop auto production of engineers on specific planet when..

« on: November 13, 2010, 12:42:02 AM »

ive set globally, to produce engineers automatically.

however, on specific planets, i don't want it to auto build as it's a waste. On these planets, i want to put 0 as engineers, but i think the program won't know and would still refer back to the global auto build options if local planet's set to 0!

AI War / will AI build stuffs on a planet if theres only their com station left?

« on: November 12, 2010, 10:19:45 AM »

i ask this because im trying out snake type maps and each planet only has one wormhole. The problem is most of the time the generated map somehow generates AI on all adjacent nodes so i MUSt wipe all of them out else they'll come to me as long as i raised their AI progress.

should i just wipe everything out and leave their com station alone instead?

AI War / keep dying due to starships!!

« on: November 11, 2010, 11:08:30 AM »

im still playing random easier, and boy it is insanely difficult.

I always start off well, and then as i started exploring adjacent planets, the AI suddenly sends weird starships like starship mark II ,
and even though i have lots of bombers and fighters (like maybe around 100) i still can't kill a single starship!

and there it goes..starships could even enter force fields! and turrets can't even hold it. Only one starship was needed
to destroy my energy/supply generators and finally wallop my command station -- THE END!

so whats going on?? how can i stop this from happening??

« on: November 11, 2010, 10:47:31 AM »

AI War / engineers not FRD mode when they're grouped

« on: November 11, 2010, 10:32:18 AM »

im not sure this is the cforrect behaviour or not. But i have engineers set to auto FRD mode under the CTRL options. However, if i group them and bring them to other galaxies, they won't remember they need to auto FRD.

is this a bug?

AI War / make web site popups from ai war link direct to steam?

« on: November 09, 2010, 09:19:34 AM »

on instances like multiplayer screens, those that could link direct to a web site such as  'visit the meeting grounds forum' link brings ai war out of steam, and opens a web browser externally.

since it's using steam, why not just take advantage of steam and let it open from steam's browser?
