    Hi all,

    Last night I tried running the game against an AI, and although one spawned, it didn't do anything - this was on the latest steam version as of last night. The patch notes describe the AI as at least able to build and play at some level.

    Am I missing something?

    Thanks!

    The AIs look for nearby metal spots to start a base from. If they can't find any, they don't do much of anything.

    Still working on it.

    Once the AI are building tanks i can see them being so difficult to stop. This is the first RTS with no screen edge so you never know what direction to expect an attack.

    Hopefully the AI will also be clever enough to sometimes go the long way round too, once they have some understanding of enemy location.
