Test games for AIs

[NoQ]

Is there an easy way to play (observe, actually) an AI-only game? That is, no humans, just bots, and you watch to see if AI feels good on the map. Maybe some cheat code?

I've heard about some DyDo vs. StockAI games. How were they arranged?

[Black Project]

To let DyDo take control of your base in Skirmish matches, just type /ag on to activate it

To stop DyDo from controling your base, type /ag off to deactivate it.

DylanDog some long time ago has made an comparison between DyDo and Stock AI by just using both AIs

Player 0 (DylanDog, AFAIK) & Player 1 (AI Player) were DyDo, he's allowed himself to be controlled by DyDo by just typing that command on the post above.

Player 2 & 3 (Both AI Players) were Stock AI

Note that for standard AI, the commands are "autogame on" and "autogame off", respectively. You need to be in cheat mode, obviously.

What about Dydo vs becomeprey?

FYI - I stopped testing DyDo vs. BP because BP was too weak...I assume nowadays it has no chances at all against any DyDo personality. I also think that the standard AI is stronger than BP (but the standard AI chates on power -> +500 every minute).

I'm having a little problem with this. When i say "autogame on", i don't get the extra cheated-up power any bot should get, so i can't make a fair bot vs. bot battle this way.

You can turn difficulty down to 1 for all AIs, then you level the playing field by making the start AIs also getting no cheat power.

PS If I get the time to backport its requirements and debug it properly, I'll add my non-cheating semperfi AI mod to the upcoming 3.0 release.
