It automatically builds things in a certain order.
I've searched for raum core there's no trace of it aside from your accounts.

commanding is far too complex for auto command on conquest mode.

a better focus is working on other game modes that don't require commanders

This is a good idea.We could have fully maxed pre-built tec and maybe a few empty sectors between them.

In my head, a roadmap leading to scenario's/autocommanding would look something like this:

- Configuration rework. Helpful for the next step. Working on it, another good day of work I think
- Make the LAN server easy to use. Because testing everything after this is too frustrating otherwise.
- Delay core loading until a game is launched instead of joining a server, enabling us to switch cores while remaining on the server.
- Spectator mode, for testing purposes.
- Very basic scenario's to quickly test how AI's respond to certain situations.
- Build my own core. A simple core. DumbAsARock core. Enables idiots to make tech choices. This is why "delay core loading" must be done first, otherwise too many players will hate me for this.
- Build the current pigs on the server
- Improve these bots to be capable of executing complex gameplans on their own or together. Good luck.
- Build scenarios where players can fly in scripted events. It should be fun enough to replay a hundred times as that is probably easier than an actual autocommander. This would also be the step allowing for co-op campaigns to be implemented.
- Build an "autocommander" that is not frustrating to the players flying under it. Good luck.

If anyone knows a shortcut, go ahead. But even if I had unlimited time to spend on this, I would still take a very long time before building anything that resembles an autocommander.

raum, I think you misremember what your core was capable of.

It would just start buying stuff in the tech tree.I think is was as much of a slight to how bad I am at comm,as it was a serious attempt at an auto command. :lol: You still had to control your miners which IMO is as rough as remembering what order to buy things(which because I have no memory,I'll never be any good at.And am too lazy to develop a cheat cheat to reference every situation.) :unsure:
