GearCity 1.18 Progress

[Eric.B]

Hello again,

Licensing system's first revision is now 100% complete. I've added in filters and the ability to search all components/vehicles at once. I've also fixed a few minor bugs in the displayed information. Finally I made the listing have dynamic information based on how you order the lists.

I noticed a few issues with the AI while working on the licensing system. Over the weekend I have improved the AI's vehicle design strength. They're now producing even better vehicles. I also made them more aware of consumer per-capita. As such their designs should be priced more competitively. I've also adjusted the consumer price index slightly. It still has more work to do to it, but the primary goal of this is to prevent drastically cheaper and crappy vehicles from eating up higher priced and higher quality vehicles in the same market space.

I've also increased the AI's expansion code. So hopefully they'll spread out even quicker now.


In any event, I'm going to switch to fixing bugs submitted to me from 1.17.8 and continue to do some optimizations on the AI while I'm not on my main programming machine.
