AI Improvements

[akulapanam]

The AI is actually really good in this game, far better then in some other Star Wars titles however the AI has 3 basic problems that I have encountered.

 

- The AI retreats when winning, this is a big one. The AI attacked me a couple of times when I only had 1 troop group and 2 T-2B groups with 2-4 Maulers groups, 3-5 AT-ST groups, and 3-7 Stormtrooper squads.  Now local's did help me a lot, as did stupid AI one with one at a time attacks, but still they usually got 1 T-2B group in exchange for 3 Maulers group and an AT-ST group and then on the verge of victory retreated.

- The AI doesn't form coherent attack forces, It attacks with one group of units, followed by another, followed by another.  In space this is a little better but I still usually get attacked by the lone Tartan which quickly dies without support, followed by the rest of the fleet. On the ground its usually some natives, followed by tie maulers, followed by AT-ST's.  The all attack one at a time and die.

- You can double the time until the AI attacks you by simply attacking, and even if you don't destroy anything retreating, even if its with one x-wing squad.  It works a little better if you can knock off a Tartan, but in either case the AI will simply move forces and rearrange its forces almost endlessly as long at you make 2 attacks or so per day.
