Any work on AI

[fragtzack]

Hi fanatics,

Been lurking for a few years.

Anyone know if any work is being done to improve the tactical unit AI?

I find the game using extremely poor decisions in unit management during military engagements. These poor decisions make the AI very easy to beat with much smaller armies.

Any news from the AI development front lines is appreciated.

Regards

The guy that programmed the AI is now old enough to start primary school, so he is too busy.

This has been on the Steam Civ V page at least since I got the game:

Is there any reason they can't just use the MIT algorithm for the Civ V AI and show it the manual, and then upload the results in a patch or expansion?

Dont know how much they can do, I think they should make more paratrooper units, what you can send 5 or so hex if you want, so I think that'd work better for AI.

Sadly, I think the Civ V manual isn't as good as the Civ II one either.
