Can I make a request? TradeWars 2002v3 had support for user defined alien
races. IT SUPOSEDLY had support for an AI file also that would control the
behavior of these races, but I never saw a file spec or any kind of util
that would produce this AI file. I could not make races act the way I
wanted them to. If you produce someething like that, PLEASE include the AI
file maker so that we can actually control the aliens correctly? After all,
there's so much StarTrek in tradewars that I just HAD to add the Borg! But
the borg don't come aboard, take your cargo and some holds, and then leave
you alone. They try to Assimiliate (Kill) you.
