emptyT Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 Hi Brit I have found my planes running out of fuel at times. It seems to be when you patrol them beyond limit, with them to land at a nearer base. If they encounter an enemy patrol they will follow and then not make it to the new base, but rather try for home! Doesn't seem to matter what orders you give them. Something to look at for your next patch - once you've finished programming an AI thats acceptable to NASA and more importantly, 'BillyNoMates' lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rich12545 Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 So you're trying to start another flame war. Some people never learn. No matter what. They're just too dense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rich12545 Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 LOL - too funny You really want to get banned don't you? I assume you guys are talking about emptyt. What's his friggin problem? He's incapable of simply reporting a problem without making a personal attack against me. This kind of behavior is what starts flame wars and maybe he should be banned.

rich12545 Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 LOL. Now that you've given your approval I guess it's ok for Brit to fix it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rich12545 Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 WAIT! NO NO! The game is great the way it is. This is a wonderful great game and doesn't need a fix. The planes work great the way they are. This is the greatest game ever made and the planes are fine. Nothing needs to be done. Besides almost all the other wargames on the market have planes that run out of gas and crash. So nothing needs to be done with this. The planes work just fine the way they are. EmptyT is getting obnoxious complaining about planes when they work just fine. EmptyT needs to quit complaining about planes since all the other wargames have planes that run out of fuel and crash so this is just fine. Besides this only happens once in a while. Brit lost money on the game so he can't spend time fixing little minor stuff that happens only once in a while. Besides there weren't very many copies of the game sold and Brit lost money so he can't spend all this time fixing something so minor that all the other games have wrong anyway. So quit complaining. This isn't an appropriate flaw to fix. All the other games have the same thing and Brit has no time to fix this stuff. Leave Brit alone with your obnoxious complaints all the time.

Boris Balaban Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Today I saw the AI drive a tank by a city and 4 capital ships of mine could not bombard the city. They could fire onto the tank but not the city. On the other hand I flew a transport away from the AI into a city with several other units and had the AI fly planes after it and was able (like surgery) to single out my transport and hit and kill it only (strange).

rich12545 Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 You know, Boris, these people and their constant personal attacks and trolling aren't helping Brit one bit.

rich12545 Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Hey, you don't tell me to chill out or anything else. You STILL need to come up with 10 wargames that use the all seeing AI. Put up or shut up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pzgndr Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Brit has asked you to chill out. So chill out already. And your stupid little challenge is over.

rich12545 Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Yeah, stupid challenge? Oh, you mean because you can't answer it? YOU said most wargames have an all-seeing AI but can't even name 10 that do. It's not over until you either come up with them or admit you were wrong. I'm telling YOU to put up or shut up.

This rant is quite childish and it reminds me of my son when he was two and throwing a tantrum. Rich, the AI poke was in good fun and you should have just laughed it off. We all know that there is a big difference in fixing a bug where planes run out of fuel vs the all-seeing AI issue you are so determined to keep on the table. Next time one of us pokes fun at you, just respond by saying. "eh - good one" or come back with something comical like - "maybe we should have had nasa write the AI" or just let it pass. I responded because of your negative response and the fact that you keep the fire burning. Let it go out and either play along or let the quips go by un-responded to. You take this board far too seriously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rich12545 Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 That initial post included a personal attack against me. Emptyt has done it before and he did it again. It was not in fun. I am sick and tired of all the personal attacks against me just because I'd like to see this game improved. And I'm sick and tired of people telling me what to do and how to act. The post you quoted was done all in good fun. It was a bit of satire and I laughed all the way through writing it. YOU should have just let it go or said "good one" instead of making a personal attack against me. YOU should take your own advice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brit Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 Today I saw the AI drive a tank by a city and 4 capital ships of mine could not bombard the city. They could fire onto the tank but not the city. Was the enemy tank in the same location as the city, but not actually inside the city? Just wondering if maybe the interface was blocking you from hitting the city because the orders kept being set to attack the tank. On the other hand I flew a transport away from the AI into a city with several other units and had the AI fly planes after it and was able (like surgery) to single out my transport and hit and kill it only (strange). Sounds like the issue that was brought up recently - I need to block the AI from being able to target individual units inside cities. The code used to setup AI attack-targets is different from the code used by players to attack targets, and there's different behavior, but they're supposed to work the same.

Brit Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 Let's not have another round about the AI. Let's just let it go for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boris Balaban Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 As for targeting why not let it that you can target anything in the pile (if it is not much trouble)? As the tank was it looked as it was just outside the city. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
