Now you talking about insane list of variables, An adaptive hueristic interactive artificial intelegence matrix.

No. I mean that an AI says a preproggramed list of responses when it's under attack or attacking. Would be nice.

Thats in so many games, Taunts...

I was refering to so u could ave a converstation with the AI.

Conversations would be nearly impossible. A waste of time that should have been spent making B3. I thought Taunts would be nice, though.

I think that AI in Armada2 was switching through the scripts (defensive,offensive,exploration...). Some cooperative AI can be seen in Warcraft3. When you are attacket your ally AI teleports to help. I think that something like that could be done with Fleet Ops. AI.

well the capabilities of the a2 ai are very limited, i don't think chatting would be possible

infact sometimes i have the feeling that the ai is trying to help each other especially when they attack, but of course in a simple manner only...

I mean I must test AI cooperation. When the "Observor" function works, I will watch several AIs battle it out, and figure out how to improve them. Then I will post about it in Feature Request.

Sometimes, races just stop, they build a load of turrets. They send out a few ships, then they just stop producing ships and just defend their base. Most of the time, it's the federation but ocassionaly the other races will aswell. Somehow this needs to be fixed. It's realy disapointing when theres only 3 AI empires left and u have 2 sitting on the sidelines just, sitting, not planning, not watching, just sitting, meanwhile the other one is in the usual constant state of production. Sometimes this hault in production comes after sending out every ship made and just trying to coquer the entire map in a minute.

I was playing with some freinds against 5 AIs last night and can't get over the fact that if you destroy 1 of their ships, they will just concentrate everything they have on you. If another player starts attacking them they will concentrate all their fire on that player, it's like clockwork.
