CA mod does not support KAI. It only support RAI as I know.

[Peet]

Any 'traditional' AI will generally have trouble with CA due to the large amount of lua scripting contributing to its gameplay. Use Chickens or another mod.

[EvilWalker]

Peet -- I did manage to get AAI working with CA on 77b5. Posted the solution elsewhere today...

Played several games of several hours, some with multiple AAI bots running and had sporadic difficulties/crashes with CA, mainly because I forgot to adjust some setting and my single-proc machine started to crawl.

One quirk: AAI seems to eventually run out of commands or something, for extremely long games. As a test of AAI's water-map capabilities, I once ran two AAIs against each other and headed for work. When I returned, 9 hours later, the game was still running, debris and wrecks everywhere (it was the Neptune map), but nobody was moving anymore except for patrolling recon aircraft, even though there were still live ships. It was like both sides, each controlled by AAI, suddenly decided to stop. I think I was using BA at the time.

Not sure what you make of that, but personally I'm researching how to get RAI working.

I found this thread that helped with my RAI problem:
viewtopic.php?f=15&t=7924&start=198

MelTraX's comment basically did it -- I had d'lled a bad .dll.
