AI optimization

Which size galaxy?

from GalCiv2 Forums
Which size galaxy (or other settings) is it that the AI works best on? I read it somewhere (I think it was large but I'm not sure) and I can't find it.

I have no idea. I would think it works just as good on all sizes, but I can't say 100% for certain. Having played on Large, and now playing on a Gigantic, it's seems to be playing equally good on the Gigantic map from what I have seen so far.

From draginol's journal entry, it seems that the AI fares better with lots of habitable planets compared with rare ones.

The more planets it has, the better it works, since it's more likely to have an advantage over you. If you have only one planet, you'll micromanage every detail to get the absolute best out of that planet. The AI does this for every planet, even if it has 50.

I'd say medium to large. On Gigantic, the AI doesn't build sensor ships and the human can grab 50% of all the anomalies in a ten player game, which translates into a big advantage.
