2 species being programmed to self-destruct?

#1 Post by Hihoo »

at around turn 100, Zero Population v6557
why should anyone waste his effort playing against those?

That's not a lot of information to go on; the only thoughts that come to mind involve the species dying out while still with only 1 or two planets -- an organic species may have gotten really unlucky dealing with monsters bearing bioterminator weapons, or a Xeno species may have gotten unlucky with a concentration camp, or some combination of both factors.

There aren't any species in the standard content 'programmed to self-destruct'

I'm still seeing xenophobes with empty homeworlds fairly regularly, I had thought you were going to change their AI to never use CCs on their homeworld?

Hmm, I guess that slipped through the cracks; I just committed the change now.

Cool. And reading that python code, um, yeah, still way over my head, I may need to find a basic primer.
