playing with only AIs?
Posted: Mon Jun 23, 2014 9:59 am
Hi All,
I'm a long time player and a Maths lecturer. I've a student who will be looking at the Mathematics involved in Freeciv as part of their final year maths project. The obvious analogues with organic growth and population expansion are where we'll start but I'd like to look at other aspects too. Is there any way to set AIs playing against each other and watch the results? I see some turn timing options (to stop the computer playing so fast I can't keep up with the action) but I struggle to start a game as an observer without a human player. Any advice you could offer would be great. I seem to remember that it used to be possible (that was why I suggested this project) in an earlier version but I can't get it working now.
Thanks in advance if you can help!
