AI doesnt scrub fallout/repair stuff?

[pingu53]

do they? i dont believe ive seen em do it, which makes it alot easier as you can just make a nuclear wasteland out of em and they'd never recover


also is there no way to make someone whos guarded become friendly? i beat catherine down to 1 city and then thought i'd show some mercy and let her expand again while keeping her surrounded, would be cool to have her as an ally but ive gifted like 10k gold, a few units and a city and she still hates me

If they covet anything you have, resources, land etc it's really hard. The only thing I've found is to denounce some one they already hate, they don't respond to gifts at all. I played a game where germany was next door to me, they kept getting punked by siam, so I bailed them out in expensive wars twice just so I could keep siam in check. Germany ended up leading a chain dow on me about 20 turns before my science win. Jerks.

I've seen the AI scrub fallout and repair damaged improvements that were damaged by nukes.

Most recently I've seen Cathy nuke Hiawatha several times and then take his badly damaged, nuked cities and then send in a group of workers, who proceeded to clean up.

I always see city states that have been raided by barbarians. My units move on, but several hundred years later I returned to see they haven't repaired anything. Maybe this is just CS.

I see tile improvements pillaged by enemies that the AI rarely repairs. It seems to be food resources most often. Also in one game, Japan had 4 cattle resources in his capitol, when I took it over in the mid 1900's those resources were not improved yet. I was like OMG how dumb is the AI to not improve cattle *facepalm*

Prior to the March patch I didn't see behavior like this too often, but now I see it quite frequently.

They do scrub/fallout/repair stuff, but I have seen times where an AI (usually it seems to be a CS) decide to not repair their stuff and leave a pasture or something coughing up smoke for centuries. Usually I end up fixing it for their lazy asses. Needs to be fixed.

You took almost her entire empire, and you expect her to be your ally and like you? Not happening, play Civ IV and vassalize her/hope it gets added to V. She's probably not gonna like you ever again.
