Issue: When playing a multiplayer scenario and i put all the player slots on human then i can’t fill them with AI for the lack of having more humans.
When playing multiplayer and you host a game, then you choose to host a custom scenario the following happens. For example i made a scenario for 10 players, but inside the scenario i set all the “player slots” to “huuman” the consequence is that the multiplayer game can only start with 10 huuman players. If i edit my scenario and set the first slots 8 slots to huumen and 2 to AI. Then i can play with 8 people and i have to fill those two other spits with AI. This is probably a ‘feature’ and not a ‘bug’ though. I kind of like it. But i wish there was a third option. That for example i have 10 slots, and i cannot get 10 human players even after waiting for an hour. That it then would be possible to fill the open spots with AI. Instead of the need of there to be huumen. Because i can’t call Starfleet for more officers. I need to actually fill the huumen spots with more huumen. While you would like to fill the rest of the spots with AI/computer. In the old AoM and in AoM:EE this were possible within Eso. But this actually sweet new feature, has a downside as i just described. Would it be possible to add that third option or to remove the blocking of being able to add an AI where i need a huuman? It’s not like you’re launching Skynet with AI or something.
Trigger Event:
The editor’s “player data”'s “player slots” only allow human or AI/computer. And this translates to a strict binary system when hosting a multiplayer scenario. While you want the freedom to select an AI when you can’t get enough players.
I understand if this is a feature, because now the scenario’s player data actually listens while it was lacking in AoM and AoM:EE. But sadly it has a downside. I would love to see if this could be expanded. Thank you in advance.
