The General 1.0c

[Leif Ericson]

The ultimate plan is for AI is to have different personalities to play with each game by selecting from at least two generals per civ. The personalities are meant to reflect the styles of different generals or leaders of the Middle Ages, hence the name of the AI. The AI has the same name as a previous AI of mine, but they're not related at all, just based on the same concept.

Comments and suggestions are welcome. Thanks everyone! glhf

Note: Use version 1.0+ on 1v1 Arabia. Version 0.9i is still better in team games and other maps.

Team Goals:

The General's team coordination is very limited at the moment, but it does use these commonly accepted goals:

Goal 11 (Town Under Attack)
Goal 46 (Team Position - Pocket/Flank)
Goal 392 (Attacking)
Goal 420 (Identity) - The General uses 1492
Goal 499 (Michi cut priority) - The General never requests this, but maybe it will someday
Goals 478/479 (Position Self)

Thx Leif, i love the concept.
Already tested it. Basics are done. Maybe some issues with the boar (took long to get the 2nd boar after having been found a bite late)
Concerning the other stuffs, and as you said,let's work on some brain

New version added. Mostly just fixes the load errors for WK civs, so it should play any civ fine as long as it has knights. Should also build TCs a bit sooner.

- fixed bug where AI retreated from attack too quickly
- added experimental eco rebalancing rules
