insane AI cheat

Post by gdpsnake1979 »

A player can rail 1 unit per turn (2 for Germany) and it takes about 120 production to increase the rail capacity by 1 unit. However, the AI has no restriction and can rail it's entire armies all over the map every turn. This means the AI can completely surround Serbia on turn one, rail to cover the East front, or worse fill the area around Brussels, cover any front instantly and worst of all; rail all damage units back and fresh units in every hex everywhere. This invalidates the German Schieffling (sp?) plan and is wholly frustrating when a player can't even come close to the AI troop movements. Now, I don't mind an AI getting a little help in production or whatever but this is completely unreasonable. Fix it.

I agree that this railroad abuse is utterly broken.

I've heard from a fellow forum member that this abuse was not present in the 1.5x versions so it would be interesting for me to compare the current V1.66 AI files with that earlier version.

Unfortunately the 1.5x versions of the AI files were still encrypted and thus not readable.
Only the 1.66 version was made available in a decrypted version.

Would it be possible for the developers to release the decrypted 1.5 version of the AI files so I could compare and (maybe) find the main culprit?
