Bug? Computer gives up in multiplay

[Fugazi]

I was playing practice and I took a thumper near the enemy base and caused 3 worms to eat his 3 harvestors he didnt get any reinforcements for the harvestors i thought he at least get 1.. but he didnt and when i sent my trike over to his base he sold everthing off and attacked thus giving up..Is this a bug?

Hmmm, the harvester reinforcement is always late, but that other thing ??? ?? ?

Don't think it's a bug, just the strange way the AI "thinks" in Dune 2000.

But I could be wrong.

[Timenn]

Yes, but I would call it a bug, because I think WW didn't mean that with the 'sellall' function. They only sell if they lost all important buildings (barracks, conyard, starport, factories, turrets)

[gryphon]

In that way your right. I didn't see the AI selling of just ones for that. But than I never had a "harsvesterless" AI.

Looks like the problem in Age of Empires II, where the computer gived up when you had a few soldiers more, or something. But in Dune2k (and in every WWRTS) they never give up, they only sell after losing the important buildings...
