I'm afraid that was my (only) train line with three coal trains so that my company was kept ingame.Brumi wrote:was that track in the upper right corner of your last screenshot built by SimpleAI or you?
I guess you'll simply have to test the available wagons and possibly make internal notes - which you could also save within the savegame so that you don't have to re-establish that knowledge after a game is re-loaded. After all that's basically what you, as human player, do as well.By the way, I've already started some work to be compatibile with NewGRF trainsets (namely the UKRS and NARS), but ran into problems, like not finding which wagon can be attached to a multiple unit engine.
As for the roads, something can be done by modifying the penalties for the road pathfinder, maybe it will follow others' roads more. Testing the behaviour is not so easy though...
. That's understandable when the existing roads are jammed, but otherwise it makes building very difficult and doesn't look too convincing - even when it might be slightly more profitable, esp. as usually the build costs are negligible.Sure, I'll gladly add it to my next competition runHephi wrote:I would love it if MailAI would be included if you're doing a new run,
I added it to the list of competition participants in the tournament script, so it can't be forgotten 
In a quick test against admiralAI it got 146/735 points on average (admiralAI got 380)I started small testing.planetmaker wrote:Something noteworth is IMHO the amount of roads build - something which all AI probably could still optimize and save a bit road building.
Code: Select all
cost.tile = 10;
cost.max_cost = 4000; // = equivalent of 400 tiles
cost.no_existing_road = AIAI.GetSetting("no_road_cost");
cost.turn = 1; // minor penalty for turns
cost.slope = 10; //changed // don't care about slopes
cost.bridge_per_tile = 4 + AIAI.GetSetting("no_road_cost");
cost.tunnel_per_tile = 4 + AIAI.GetSetting("no_road_cost");
cost.coast = 0; // don't care about coast tiles
cost.max_bridge_length = 15; // The maximum length of a bridge that will be build.
cost.max_tunnel_length = 15; // The maximum length of a tunnel that will be build.
