Greetings all,

A situation has occured recently in the game Sky Harbour 3 where one of my neighbours has been set to AI control (noooo,,,, the computers are taking over!)

Ah hem, anyway, was wondering, if when that person was playing you were set to friend, then what would happen to the friendly status when the AI assumes control of the race?

Has anyone come across this in any of their games?

Pleased to hear your thoughts

Crikey!

[Mod edit: looks more like a question about AutoHost, moved it out off the Academy.]

Recently somebody asked what setting to AI actually does, I think it just means that the turns are skipped and nothing really happens in the players turn, the orders set are still carried out and relations won't change.

I can't find the post, the search function just doesn't give me any results?!

Yep, Regiss is right.

The "pink" status only means he's inactive - and the computer won't wait for him to send a turn.

If he went out your "friend", he'll still be your "friend" (unless he snuck in and changed his settings - Same thing applies to enemies -

What AI's?

Or are you just talking in general?

The player is now set to "inactive" meaning - Crikey and this other race are still friends - he can still gate into his planets if he wants. (assuming he has a gate.. )

Do you mean this one, mch? This was pretty recent. (although it wasn't exactly what i was looking for)

I was just speaking in general. Obviously if that player is simply inactive then there wouldn't (and couldn't) be any changes to diplomatic ralations (or anything for that matter).

That's the one, I looked for it in the Bar and Academy, failed to check the Hosting forum.
