My guess is the AI players would burn through their resources and money, and then have no idea how to make progress.


The current AI is probably programmed along the lines of: if (metal_stockpile < x) { if (tile_metal_value > y) { build mine }}. So yeah it wouldn't know how to deal with a no ...

So that's my #1 source of riots: a game bug involving enemy starting territory, which I take over.



Ditto. That's pretty much the sole source of riots for me. FYI it's a deadlock 2 exclusive bug that never happens on D1. And sometimes if you take over a non landing territory and later attack ...

No problem. When you're ready I'd love a windows 7 binary since this is what I intend to test on (would make switching between open deadlock and og deadlock a lot easier).

Thanks for this as I much prefer the windowed mode.

On using the dll for v1.20, I get an "msvcp140d.dll not found" error. I guess you linked it to debug dlls instead of runtime. Essentially you have to install visual studio and all of its bloat if you want to play the game with your fix.

The setup.exe is a 16 bit Installshield v3 launcher that is incompatible with 64 bit versions for windows. All the launcher does is extract the actual installer (setup32.exe) which can be obtained here

One interesting thing about spying, if you increase the spying success chance value to 200 (or 100%), you can still get caught spying but if you don't you're 100% successful. In other words, I believe chance to get caught is checked before cheking if the mission was successful in 2 separate rolls ...

Humans with 400 starting and 500 limit, with nothing built grow to 428 in one turn. When I build 4 basic housing, raising the max pop to 2500, humans grow from 400 to 444 in one turn. Further evidence I was wrong earlier in this thread.


I don't blame you since it only took me a decade before I ...

Well here it is for anyone it helps (v1.31 en gog version). I've also compiled the data found in this thread plus some other data points I identified into a spreadsheet attached below.

Starting from Offset 7F584:

I actually went over this in a post a few years ago: viewtopic.php?t=368


Aye, you and FatRatKnight on gamefaqs are the source of all my game mechanics knowledge. Simplifying your population growth formula into +500 housing every +100 colonists gives players something to aim for in terms of ...

Do you still need info on the data sections? I've worked out quite a lot of it.
