Thank you, I'm going to test this out soon.

I might even include newer KAI in the Ubuntu packages, or perhaps in a different spring-ai subpackage since it's compiled separately.

I've tested this AI on nations_beta 1 and I notice a huge amount of lag. Like the game was pausing and unpausing every second. Made it next to impossible to play. I'm wondering if it was the size of the map that did it. Nations is **huge**.

I have tested KAI on 20x20 maps(4 KAIs). What size of Nations?

Is it just me or does the Ai like rushing tech 2 in xta, and sit for 30 minutes to build the first factory, gah!

On what map and mod?

XTA(released with spring - Basicly any land map)
It isn't willing to be lvl 1 metal extractors, as a result it tried to build what it needed for a mono-extractor.

the AI just seems to have lost its old intelligence in selecting buildings. for me it made lots of LLTS then metal and energy stalled. the commander wouldnt make mex's but conbots occasionally would.

New KAI released: KAI 0.23 bugfix 1
Changes:
-Fixed metal extractor building on some mods.
-Fixed bugs in mex upgrading(now works).
-Compiled for 0.75b2

KAI 0.23 bugfix 1

will try asap

Its working now...however this AI still makes my game lag like hell. The AI builds large groups of units and then gets them stuck in its on base. You can nuke them and the game will run fine again. Sometimes I even have to nuke my allies. However with the new version the AI uses antinukes and now its truly fucked. To bad cause I actually like playing agianst this AI...

also, it still dosnt like mex's very much, and tends to just porc into a corner. KAI 0.12 currently takes this to school at every mod. it would be nice to get Kloots KAI hub support in this so it can play EE too.
