How does the AI know where my secret buildings are?

I was playing a skirmish on a map called Ziggurat with just one computer player. I decided to go after the resources on the platform to the left of where I was. I made sure that the AI didn't spot my 2 trucks, built the resources, and tried building defenses on the quiet.

The enemy was all the way on the other side of the map, and while I was building my first 2 structures, the enemy sent troops to where my trucks were!

How on earth did the AI know where my secret structures were?

It tried a random platform, and got lucky?

I mean, it had a 2/7 chance of picking the right one. That's not that small.

On top of that, I've noticed that the AI gets much more power than you. I've seen seconds where his power increases by 4, 4, 4, 40, 40, 1000 (literaly).

Yeah, that's what we mean when we say "the AI cheats". If you move the difficulty slider all the way to the left (or play BecomePrey), it won't.

So, the slider just influences how much power the AI gains per second?

I believe the AI still gains the same amount per second. The slider just instantly gives the AI an extra supply of power every minute or so.

Me being a turtle/base builder the AI grabs a ton of the oil on the map wayyyyy before I even go out of my base. I always find scrims to be a challenge! because the AI is always 2 steps ahead in researches. Also the AI cheats by if you have a 8 player map 9 times out of 10 the other 7 AI's will throw themselves at you ignoring each other... its such a bummer!
