Skirmish AI

Post by marsbound2024 »

I know this is n00bish, but for those of us who aren't good or haven't played in a while, it would be nice to have some easier AI than what is given to us in Skirmish matches. Why can't we bring back the AI that was used previously? This would entice beginners more than being smashed too early in their time with Warzone 2100.

The AI we used previously is Nexus AI, which is used by default. It had only very few tweaks since the original commercial release. Moreover, it has its cheating mostly disabled, so now it's much weaker than it used to be in 2.x releases.

In Skirmish mode, there should be a feature that allows the player to switch sides if the player was originally losing:

1. A player can control the enemy faction after pressing a key.

2. That player's previous team is then controlled by synthetic intelligence.

3. When the game is over, that round would not affect his/her rating because it is cheating to exchange sides just to be victorious.
