BTS BetterAI

Better AI is not part of RFC, right?

It is not part of RFC however the RFC AI has been tweaked to the point where merging BetterAI would make them worse.

That sounds like the RFC AI is actually smarter, which it isn't. The problem is that the RFC AI is a lot more scripted (settler maps, AI wars and so on) and many features of BBAI would interfere with that. Edead still has included some applicable features of that mod into RFC Epic/Marathon.

Which is why I was asking- I saw the Better BTS tags multiple times in the SDK.

RFCM only includes BBAI speed tweaks, as I wanted to keep RFCM same as original, just faster & with more speeds.

SoI includes more AI-related BBAI code, though it's still maybe 1/3 of the whole thing. Too much of BBAI is irrelevant for RFC, i.e. the AI strategy overhaul, which makes it more aggresively towards a specific victory conditions like culture or space race. The things that work in SoI are some worker AI stuff, city management improvements, better wonder building, handling of stranded units.

This, I have have to admit I poorly worded that
