Stupid AI Bug

[Harrybanana]

Carlkay said I should post this example of the AI stupidly allowing me to surround and isolate 4 good divisions.



Since I never seem to be able to attach save files here I will email the German save file to you.

Thanks, save and bug report sent on to Gary. It does look stupid, you must have caught the line forming at a weird angle or invaded so early in the game it wasn't quite ready for you.

Thanks for the save, Gary made some changes to code today to fix this issue and you can see the result in the screenshot. Still not the best line as you might be able to cut off some Axis units, but at least it's not leaving gaps in the line. It had to do with the way the AI was approaching the heel area which Gary was able to improve. It won't be in the next public beta that should be going out later this week, but will be in the next version that goes to testers.

Yes that definitely would have made a difference. The problem is that I am doing an AAR on how to beat the AI; so if Gary keeps making AI improvements my AAR may become irrelevant. Though I suppose that is a good thing.
