To help people that do not lurk in the AI forums excesivley, but want to choose an AI that is right for them, post information about your AI here. When you post it, Ill also add it to the wiki, so people can find it in there as well.

Please list the following when posting:
  • Your AI's name
  • Mabey the current version number, but this change to much to be practical.
  • The link to the current forum thread your AI uses.
  • The status of your AI (Under development, beta, finished, ect)
  • What mods your AI is compatible with
  • The Playability of your AI. If the AI is worth downloading if you want to play a good game. Basically, will it put up a fight at all.
  • A breif description of what your AI is.
  • Any other relevant info
Thanks

EDIT: Changed the Attack strenght bit to Playability, after Zaphod pointed out the flaws in the attack strenght thing.

Note: I'm not actually posting AI info since JCAI is inactive...
How good your AI is at attacking. Be fair here. Rank your AI's against the other AI's already out. If your AI is one of the best, put Good. If it is alright, but nothing special, put Medium, if its crap, put Bad. If it doesnt even attack, put N/A.
I think AI writers should refrain from such subjective information, it's exactly the reason why the wiki is currently full of inconsistent information.
This info should be determined with an automated AI war such as greenail proposed to set up.
It should go as far as "does it attack or not?" but not more.
Also if you don't put version numbers in, you should not put this is either because AIs improve over time...

Name: KAI
Version: 0.0

Link: http://taspring.clan-sy.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=3482

Status: pre alpha

Compatible mod: XTA Core

How good at attacking: Uses only vehicles, in a dumb way -> eg BAD

Description: A very early release of a yet incomplete AI. It has several limitations such as only playing as XTA core and using only vehicles but still manages to produce a decent challenge in groups of 3 or more due to its relentless attacking and decent economy. For best results play in a flat, small map made of metal or with many mex spots.

Other relevant info: Dont keep waiting on a new version, it will be a few months still!
