The United Queendoms AI (TUQ AI)

Post by KimberlyAzula »

Good day everyone, once again!
This is a post to introduce and share an AI that I started working on in February 2022. It went through lots and lots of design changes. It started as an AI called "Malians AI", that was only meant to play Malians. Then I decided, I want to add more african civs, so I renamed the AI to "The African Queendoms AI". But then ... after a couple more days I decided, why only limit the script to the few african civs? So I renamed them to "The United Queendoms AI" (TUQ for short). It can play multiple civs now.

General Features:
- Can play most standard land maps, but can also play water maps (if too much water is detected, the AI might focus only on ships though)
- Can not play maps where you start without a TC or where you need to move villagers with ships
- Can play all civs
- No DUC (so far)
- Can play only conquest (for now)
- Unique player names (all female, of course)


Why did I create this AI?
TUQ was created because I wanted to have a Malian AI with Gbeto and Camels. It then developed into a bigger project, where I added more civs, more unit variance and lots of other stuff. I also wanted to have an AI that is different to my Chill AI and my Queen AI, with better economy management.


How strong is the AI?
Again, this is not really a competitive AI. It can beat the AI (CD version) aka petersen, but can't beat any other standard AI integrated into the game. It is definitely stronger than my Chill AI script though, which can also beat petersen.
