The Daily Update at the Com

May 28th

Two bigger fixes today:

1. Campaign AI - Turn time resolution has been sped up. We found a logic block in the AI's use of land bridges and removed it. This has resulted in faster end turn times during the AI move calculation phase.

2. Campaign AI - We solved a start state issue where one smaller state started attempting an alliance with another state that didn't recognise it. This resulted in incorect behaviour between the two nations at startup, which has now been fixed.

Naturally this is all inline with everything else being done. We also hope to be able to reveal more details about the upcoming free units shorty.

Kind regards,
Kieran

I think that especially number one was a main cause for the long waiting between turns. I hope that it is really fixed.

I'm gonna miss going to pick up pizza on Sweden's turn

Just what I was thinking too. The land bridge delay helps explain why Sweden always took so long.

If they can solve the Interminable AI Turn problem, I will dance a little jig of joy in my special pink kilt. Next to the CTDs, this has been the biggest game-killer for me.

You ever notice that Sweden pumps out one or two unit "armies and marches them up the penninsula on one turn - and back down on the next - to no good purpose?

Just weird and dumb.

Maybe there is an IKEA on the penninsula...?

(Too easy?

Think I will state the best response, when it's ready.
Or to quote Johan from Paradox
