AI builds roads around its vineyards

[wl-zocker]

I have noticed that the Imperial computerplayer builds roads around its vineyards so that the vine farmer has too little space to plant his vine. This is IMHO a big problem because grapes are needed for wine, and wine is needed for marble.

To solve this problem, I wanted to add "space-consumer=true" to the vineyard's conf-file, but the line was already standing there.

This surprised me because I have never watched road building around farms. (Why is there a difference?)

A possibility to solve the problem is to enlarge the working area of the vineyard, but I think it should be kept small because otherwise, the vine farmer would plant too many vines.

Just have a look at AI farm near his headquarters (I deliberately waited till AI "wins" so that observer can see everything, including productivity).

tibor, is this fixed with one of your changes?

[TiborB (tiborb95)]

yes, the problem is at least mitigated by two indirect means:
1. roads are more sparse
2. AI prohibits buildings of new buildings in area around farms of all types. (It does not affect existing ones, of course)

So unless AI is badly restricted by lack of free spots is will behave better.

okay, let's call it fixed then.

Fixed in build19-rc1.
