Economy AI won't switch off!

Post by CaptainMaim »

This isn't a bug but I want to know how to disable the economy AI so I can manage my moho's in a metal crisis without having it force them off constantly. (I know I'm over extended on my power but I've got lots in reserve that it won't let me use.) It won't even let me turn even 1 moho on! It's SO OBNOXIOUS! I've disabled the "Metal Maker" widget, I've not assigned the moho's to any group AI. And I've told the game in the settings.exe to not allow helper AI's. But the problem persists. The game is being TOO helpful. How can I make it stop?

You might have more than one metal maker widget installed, as the game does not do that by default.

Must be, but I can't find it. I can't find any files that might be involved. I don't want to have to reinstall to fix this. I don't want to have to reinstall my widgets either. :( Any ideas what widgets that do this might be called?

Maybe post a screenshot of your widget manager?

Where can I host the shot? I don't have a place of my own anymore.

I have no idea how to do that. It doesn't seem to want to attach from my hard drive. I don't HAVE any online space to put this on. So I don't know how to attach it. (I've tried pressing "Img" but I can't put an URL in there so it doesn't work.)

Found it, I was going through and systematically switching stuff off, when I came across a very small entry labeled: "Improved MetalMakers" and I turned it off and my problem was sovled. Now I can drain my batteries as I need.

Thanks for the help, at least I know now how to upload images and such. Thanks for the help.

Test of forum upload feature.
You can't do that?

How'd you do that?

<looks down>

Oh. I didn't see that there.. Thanks.

For that image, can you try to use "restore" terraform feature to fix it?
