AI & Wild Improvements?

from Elemental Forums

Hi all,

Does anyone know with a reasonable level of certainty if the AI build upgrades to wild resource improvements, for example does it upgrade the Iron Mine to a Smelter?

Edit also, what about limited cap unit improvements like the Order or Asok or Wild Ogres, anyone know for sure if the AI will build those.. I presume it does but it's been a while I don't remember seeing it for sure?

Thanks.

Not positive about upgrading iron mines to foundries and above, but I am fairly certain I have seen them do it.

AI builds on wild ogres, order of asok, mercenary camps, etc all the time.

I've seen ogre camps and mercenary camps, and same as Davrovana i think i recall seeing some upgraded mines but im not completely clear about it either.

The ai will build the basic versions of everything that's for sure but not sure about upgrades, for example i've seen the custom shards in d&w but never the upgrades.

Yep that's the main reason i'm wondering about it, i've got some other things i'd like to do with upgradable wild resources but I try and avoid creating stuff that the AI won't use.

Thanks

Come to think of it, I don't think I've EVER seen the AI upgrade shards altars to shrines, or temples. Ever, ever.
