[1.2.2 (fb85)] Sector AI does not do what its supposed to

[KopiG]

Okay The sector AI is horrible. Sorry no easier way to put it. I specifically said it to focus on energy and ALLOW redevelopment and do not respect tile resources. Now guess what it does on my empire spanning quarter of the galaxy? Building fucking military stations to waste my resources so I cannot support my large fleet. Doesnt matter if I clear all those 30+ military posts. THe cancer just comes back. Please FIX Sector and make it DO what its supposed to!

I'd love to see a save of that to try and identify what part of the AI logic is failing there.

I expect the AI to completely fill every single colony with maximum upgraded Power Station with the bare minimum Hydroponic Stations on every single tile the colony has. At least thats my understanding of Allow Redevelopment=Yes and Respect Tile Resources=No.
If my understanding is wrong please tell me then I apologise for my post misunderstanding the meaning of focus system.
I will provide you with a save file in 3-4 hours. Thank you for looking into it ForzaA. Very much appriciated.

I'm not 100% sure on the AI logic, but I do believe all sectors are intended to have a limited number of mines (so they have the minerals to redevelop/upgrade) and research (so that specialising doesn't mean you completely kill your research by having non-research sectors)

It's the military posts that I'm most surprised about - my understanding was that these WERE in fact limited only to that specific specialisation.

In this save file I have cleared I think all of the military defense platforms. I fast forwarded the game 2 years into the future while constantly feeding the sectors with minerals and what did the AI use those minerals? To rebuild the defense platforms. From ~0 defense platforms the number went up ~12 in 2 years.
EDIT: Added another year while still feeding minerals for sectors and the defense platform number went up to ~21.

Thanks.

ForzaA there is another very important bug I forgot to tell you about. When my ruler died in a military dictatorship and during that time I changed my government to Martial Empire I did not get any new ruler. Please check the save file I sent you why I am without a ruler now forever.

 

[ForzaA]

Could you clarify that sequence of events for me?

You started of as a military dictatorship, and ended as a Martial Empire - but WHEN did you change to the Empire, relative to your ruler dying?

 

[KopiG]

After my ruler died I almost immediately (max in a few days in game time) changed my government to Martial Empire.
Do you also have the issue about the sector AI pumping out defense platforms?

 

[KopiG]

Adding a new save file. This is what happens with my sectors which are focused on Energy + Allow Redevelopment=Yes and Respect Tile Resources=No: almost all has cancerstations (military platforms) draining my precious energy so I cannot field a bigger fleet.
Also as you can see Im still without a ruler
PS: Also could you explain why my Zaurak Prime Sector which is with me the past like 20 years has not managed to develop a single energy economic building? It gives me a huge bonus of +0 energy per cycle even I have fed it with thousands of minerals and no development in like a hundred years? Really?
Please ForzaA check with the devlopment team with the Sector AI. It feels very slow.
UPDATE:
After spending more time it started to give me energy credits now. I dont know sector AI just feels slow and not very aggressively developing sectors.
