by request i merged upgrader ai with scale ai and boss ai to make an ai that could never be killed

http://zero-k.info/Battles/Detail/2454791? - a good example of what to expect

advice:
dont take over 50% of map mex until your strong
dont let ai get to detriments or they will get 18 detriments.. if they have a split com (3x spawns) and you have over 50% of map mex (2x spawns) then they will get over 120 detriments! even with chain exploding you would need a starlight to stop that

ok.. cause of crash was due to commanders somehow spawning commanders.. this leads to 337 commanders who then spawn 4,044 units and they crushed each-other leading to a runaway chain reactionary thermonuclear explosion that blew up half the map

since commanders are on the blacklist im not sure why it happened ill look into it

uggh dynamic coms are hard to catch properly by unit def.. and they spawned heaps of them again

this currently has a crash bug

the ai was finally beaten.. proving that humankind is better then a machine that cheats like crazy

and proving just how bad the vanilla ai really is

the ai that lost had 6 zenith and did not even make grid

messed the mod release up.. fixed and re-released fingers crossed no more problems

small update
made this much easier:

1/2 wave spawn speed
made ai nuke fire at will

if its too easy play vs 2 ai

buffed spawn times now so thay are half way between the nerf at 30s per wave and 1 min per unit type

gave normal units that evolve from death when at max unit cost detriment a spawn as any random unit but with 10x health

reduced ai black coms innate income to 20 down from 100 to lessen the power spike from early kills

massively improved ai unit spawn logic to allow the ai to maintain spawns even if commander is blocked

after trying to further fix this mod i have come to the conclusion its now a mess of code that works perfectly but any single change causes an avalanche of bugs..

so the 3.3 release will be the final version

further improved spawning.. gave ai seismic missiles to help it combat the rising trend of huge walls until the game laggs

ai seismic slightly reverted to 1 every 4 minutes

ai black coms spawn delay is now 5 minutes up from 3 seconds

reduced lag related to spawn attempt stacking
