A.I. Seems to know where everything is.

from Stardock Forums
I know I read something about this a few weeks ago I just want to bring this to everyones attention again and, I want to find out if anyone else has seen this too. I met one of the other races one of their colony ships apeared in my scaner range. I had just gotten my colony ship built and I wanted to see where he was going as I had a faster ship so i followed him into uncharted territory in the center of my space. I would have seen him comming if he had scanned the space b4 as it's surrounded by me. Well to make a long story short the ai knew that there was a habitable planet in the center. I find that the ai has an unfair advantage they know where all the planets are. I never see them colonize any other planets under 15 and most of the time when I meet up with one of them they already have about 10 planets and about 20 colony ships. Just to show you that ai knows the map. Also I find that the range on the ships is just to big. :notsure:

The AI is supposed to know where all the good planets are... it's explained in the story.

To see the story go to the "encyclopedia" button above and click on each of the "books" you find there. The specific piece you read is in the "book" called "A brief history" at http://www.galciv.com/encyclopedia.asp?action=showpage&page=http://www.galciv.com/encyclopedia/galactic_history.html

Well, I guess the link I tried to put in my last post doesn't work right. I tried.

Anyway, the bit about the other races knowing where everything is is at the bottom in the last two paragraphs.
