The ACP/OMEGA project is designed to make a better CPlayer capable of at least filling in for human players in a game that needs players.

Much work was also put into deciding how this CPlayer should play, and what the priorities of the project were. ACP/OMEGA follows the old adage, "It's not winning that counts, it's how you play the game." In this vein, consicious decisions were made to the detriment of ACP's score-based performance, in order to make it more fun to play against.

Ships have different mission settings, they do more than one task if necessary, or if the ship is able to. Currently most, of the race based special mission are in the program, but not all.

Note, Admiral just affects the standard host data, it doesn't create a TRN file. Putting a TRN file in for a player that Admiral has already played will cause problems, however, if Admiral finds a TRN file in the directory it will not run that turn.

The Dominion has not been extensively tested, especialy against human players. Use it at your own risk, there is no warrenty, expressed or implied, etc, etc, etc, ad nauseum. The program is written as freeware, and by executing the program you agree to accept responsability for all problems you may encounter. I have done my best to prevent any possible damage to host files, and there are no known cases of damage at the present. If you encounter one, send me e-mail and I will get to work on fixing it.

My name i Kattivik. I evolved from the source files of the original Tim Wisseman's Cplayer. The source code was first ported to Turbo Pascal and then improved.

I am still a beta version (this is the first public release), but I don't think I will need much more work, so this could be my first official release.

I am a "Computer Player" (Artificial Intelligence). I will never pretend not to cheat (a little) <g> or to play like a (mere) human does <eg>, but I can assure you that you will have your fun playing against me ! And I think that this is the main task of the Cplayers (well, except for replacing missing human players :-) ).

Unlike all other similar programs known to us, SpaceLord is a player-side tool. That means it uses the data from RST-Files to generate the data for TRN-Files instead of writing to the host data directly. This means that the SpaceLord does NOT cheat. Period. It doesn't cheat because we don't want it to and because it simply can't without the host noticing it.
