What do you do as AI
If nobody orders you around and no harm happens there is just not much to do.
Some rounds are just intensely boring as AI on asimov.
I usually set up the engine, but after that AI'ing becomes more of a sideshow while I watch youtube on my second monitor.
How do you prevent getting bored as AI?

Mess with the non-Humans, override all the door timers on secure/external airlocks, optimise atmospherics/the engine, tell all the cleanbots to clean some stubborn stains that keep getting missed, make Nanotrasen propaganda announcements, monitor the cargo stock market etc.

Re: What do you do as AI
you go to game preferences and set AI to low and Borg to high. I love long rounds but long rounds as an AI just killed my enjoyment of AI in general. Aside from the very rare chance of getting the ash walkers malf powers upgrade there just isn't anything the ai can do itself for enjoyment. With the addition of ai borg shells it's sort of fixed that I guess but you still need someone to make a dedicated shell for you.CPTANT wrote:If nobody orders you around and no harm happens there is just not much to do.

Re: What do you do as AI
Ask Robotics to add AI mech beacons to all of the mechs, so you can go stomping around. You could also ask your Engiborg to hack a MULE for you, then use it to cart yourself around. If you are really, REALLY bored, ask the Clown or someone to visit you at your chamber to play music for you. (This, ironically, is one of the few positive encounters I have had with clowns)

Re: What do you do as AI
Slow AI rounds where lots of things are happening but not the sort of thing you need to care about are fun in my opinion. And you can always declare that it's your borg's birthday and invite the whole crew to your core for a party as a last resort.

Not play as AI.
Seriously, by design you are a slave to the station and its people. There are only a handful of times when I actually want to play AI, normally when I can sit through a full round and want to babysit a bunch of retards.
I do like to remind the crew that Human Harm is evil and should be destroyed

Re: What do you do as AI
It's tricky, because being slaved to someone can be one of the most entertaining things in the game (see: cyborgs, golems, stands), but being an AI makes you feel very weak indeed unless you're A) Good with atmos etc. and B) Not stuck with Asimov or C) Dealing with nonhuman opponents who idle beneath doors.The Clowns Pocket wrote:Not play as AI.

Just sit back and do something else with the game running to the side and when things kick off or when you're asked to do something tab back in and do it then go back to whatever else.

Re: What do you do as AI
Let's see....
Get as many borg shells as I can (if it's a really long round, I try to get enough shells to play borg-scale chess), wire the solars/SM/etc. directly into the grid, cause tiny amounts of chaos and inconvenience across the station (depowering the lights from every APC, but leave everything else alone), spread disinformation that just annoys people, but not actually causes harm, hope that I get a non Asimovian lawset, get mechs, go mining, get someone to put up cameras in all of maintenance, etc.
Most of my stuff is surprisingly passive.
My favorite, though, is deliberately misinterpreting vague orders. "AI, door" can be interpreted many ways. "Yes, that's a door" is a nice response, and when they get more specific and say "open it" you just open a random door elsewhere on the station.

Re: What do you do as AI
one time there was this law that stated "Chickens must have all access." or something along those lines
my borgos interpreted everyone as a chicken for whatever reason
i then had to talk to them and convince them to bolt open every door for a presumably non-harmful area(*i.e access to most of medbay, bridge, some of engineering, etc.) because otherwise they would bolt open every single fucking door on the station including the core of the engine and all the airlocks which would cause harm and the entire station to go to shit
i tried also to convince them the chickens in said law were referring to birds but they wouldn't listen
what a fun round

Re: What do you do as AI
With sufficient research, a hard-light holographic unit can be created. This needs to be fit to a holopad by the researcher, to allow that holopad to use the hard light projector (which is done automatically whenever the AI uses that pad).Gun Hog wrote:How would you want these hard-light holograms to work?
Allows the AI's hologram to act as a human within the range of that holopad, for all intents and purposes. It can interact with items and machinery, with all-access. Clothing left on the holopad will automatically be worn when the hologram is created, and dropped when the stops using the holopad.Gun Hog wrote:What would you want them to be able to do?
Don't make hard-light projectors. Don't attach hard-light projectors. Be more robust than the AI; these holograms have 100 health and their holopads will need to recharge for a few minutes before they're usable again if they get killed.Gun Hog wrote:How would you counter one being used as a weapon by a rogue AI?
