Warrior General Games

someone recently mentioned that they read on these forums something to the effect that if the AI is too long (ie. lots of inputs/outputs) that the sim engine will truncate the end of the AI

- is this true?

- are there any specifications on this kind of limit to the AIs?

The only issue I ever heard of regarding to length of AIs is that they weren't saving correctly when people made a huge AI and tried to save it all at once. Since been fixed.

I haven't heard of anything like this, but I imagine the types of people who would go nuts with the AIs would be the ones who would report if it wasn't being followed. I haven't heard any stories like that, at any rate

I don't call him "AI" but I haven't had any complaints about his length or size.

ROFLMFAO

On a more serious note, I think there might actually be something to this. I've got a fairly long offensive ai. I've got my '1st and 10' situation towards the bottom and from watching the last few games my team calls plays that shouldn't be able to be called from my outputs.

very very very key question that absolutely has to be answered asap

and i dont mean for me, i mean for all of us

i try to avoid pming support at all costs because i know how busy they are but if we dont get a very reliable answer to this here stat i will be doing that

I don't know that I have seen a problem with it. I have mine in for down and distance which winds up putting 4th down at the bottom. To date I have NOT seen those do anything that I didn't want them to. I think that I have a pretty intense playbook as well. Over 300 outputs. I also can't think of my 3rd down plays doing anything wrong as well. I haven't really had to use my 4th quarter plays that much this year so who knows those could be screwy.

This isn't a problem.
Don't worry about it.

As the size of the AI increases, there is a greater chance for human error as well. Also if there is an error it would likely be kind of tough to find as you'd have to go through a lot of those inputs perhaps.
