I managed to remove the default AI. How to install it again?

I don't know how, but I have managed to remove the default AI from OpenTTD. I tried another AI and in some way the default AI went gone. I didn't like the other AI so I removed it, and now I only have a "Dummy AI" that doesn't build anything.

Thank you in advance
Johan

You can't remove the default AI. Since 0.7.x there is no default AI anymore. You'll have to do with one of the downloaded AIs or downgrade to 0.6.3. It could help the AI authors of the new AIs if you took the time to write down in the NoAI forum why you don't like any of the new AIs, so they can improve their AIs.

OK, so it is not possible to get the same AI as in original TTD? Otherwise, which AI do you recommend me to use? I want it to use all vehicle types. And why is the default AI removed?

Thank you in advance

Correct
Otherwise, which AI do you recommend me to use?
Try a few ones yourself and see which one you like best.
I want it to use all vehicle types.
Then your choice is somewhat limited. NoCab supports all but trains, and AdmiralAI supports all but ships (which the TTD AI didn't support either).
And why is the default AI removed?
[/quote]Because it cheated in many ways and it wasn't updated for a long time to support new features.

Hello!

It was Admiral AI that i tried. The reason that I didn't keep it was that it didn't create any good company names, they were just called "Admiral AI", "Admiral AI #1" and so on, but now I think it isn't a good reason not to use it. Now I have downloaded Admiral AI again and it works good! Will there be a new default AI developed for OpenTTD? I think would be great for new players who haven't get known to the game yet.

Yours sincerely
Johan
