If anyone is against having an option to allow the computer to control all investment and build/move orders to drones for a particular team, post here why.

the ai comm can be mutinied like usual.

more thought out plans will be posted by someone else....

These bugs haven't been fixed yet because don't have any developers interested in fixing them up. --Tigereye

I am against this because I cannot insult a computer in such a way as to make it cry and leave the game.

If you can pull this off it'd be very interesting to see how it works.

There was this thread; I'm sure there were others (I remember at least one other one) but eh.

As long as it's less retarded than miner ai, go for it.

I guess it still will be possible to backseat the AI by stopping donations and herding cons and miners.

Maybe if players have paydayed half a tech the AI should finish it?

no. this is just going to lead to players having payday wars with each other by stopping donations and putting money into whatever tech that they personally want. if anything the AI should be untouchable except to mutinies.
