Forensics Lab is a much bigger problem, especially because it is a distant prerequisite for the Gamma Assembler.
For most of these I think we'd need to see the save. Someone with more patience for looking into this than I have at the moment will have to step forward on these.
I admit to having seen a disturbing lack of concern by the AI for unimproved resources. Not only do they not trigger workers to be built, which are more a matter of simply how many need to be maintained, something appears to fail in the worker AI stream to see and address them as a total priority. They get to a lot of improvements on bonuses but why they sometimes seem to start going off and wandering around stupidlike instead of going to address others that have yet to be improved, I don't know. This is not something I'll be looking into all that soon. I'm getting a little tired of AI work. So it's not a fix we can expect before rerelease.
@alberts2 explained earlier why this is never selected to be built by the AI and some ways it could be adjusted to change that. I also brought up that the AI needs to identify better what city should be the primary production center for explorer units (really identify the best place to train all sorts of differing unit types) and where they intend to train units they need to make the ways to improve those units a high priority. Hunting instruction could get built right now if the AI identifies education as a need at some point but it is likely to construct more impressive contributors to that cause first.
I have solved a major reason that the Precinct and other earlier crime control buildings were not being constructed. I'm about to solve another reason that has unit training jumping in the way of completing such buildings so that less effective units aren't getting trained before the building can complete. I will also be watching to see if we really need to restructure the way we value buildings based on the buildings that it can unlock - there actually is some AI code for that and I don't know if it's just non-functional and bugged or if it's just not quite fulfilling the need it must - it appears to maybe fail as a matter of timing. If the city wants something, it may not see that beyond this building is what it wants exactly due to keeping the turn times minimized and thus limiting the depth of information querying. This could lead to such buildings coming up to be constructed much later than they should for the reason that there are other buildings to unlock.
I see. Yeah I didn't get that intent at first. Makes sense. Those will need to be given the OR prereq. The Police Precinct did not originally replace the police station and infact required one instead. I should've considered these would need to be found and addressed with such a shift. Thanks for identifying them.
This error message happens if game loses focus, and has memsaver enabled.
This is not good as you cannot easily decide which buildings are important to construct.
I'll fix this. To maintain the method that's been in use all the way through the chain of buildings that unlock law enforcement units up to this point, it is critical to have the precinct replace the station.
It was me. It was very intentional. And yes, it does create some unintended issues with the other buildings that required the station that should now have an OR prereq for the precinct.
That's a mean little coding task that. Would take some real concentration and finding the examples in use that already work to achieve this.
AI is horribly broken on that SVN.
