New multiplayer game against AI

[pokrishka]

Hi guys,

I just downloaded OpenTTD for the first time. I've installed 2 AIs and configured them to be used in game settings somewhere in main menu. I've set maximum competitors as 3 with 1 human and 2 AIs. Now I want to start a new multiplayer game for 2 of my friends so all 3 of us could run one company against 2 AIs. How do I add AIs to the game? Will they eventual pop up on their own after we play a little? Can I rename them? This was probably already asked before, but brief search didn't bring anything.

They usually pop up within 1-3 years but this can be changed in the AI settings menu. I am unsure if they will pop up in Multiplayer automatically. Make sure the setting Allow AI in Multiplayer is On.

Great, thanks!
