I usually never really considered this Slag Deposit and ThermoGenerator situation an issue like others have done. I definitely don't want the enemy AI's production going up even further by some kind of ThermoGenerator Slag Deposit loophole, though I probably wouldn't mind if my allied AI were able to somehow take advantage of such a loophole. However, if the AI stays within the power and production limits that LarkinVB was talking about, even after producing a ThermoGenerator, then that would mean that the enemy AI and allied AI would put down fewer ordinary generators and thus make smaller bases, all of which would be a good thing. Therefore, if the enemy AI were to get a serious production boost from building ThermoGenerators on slag deposits, that might not be a good thing. I also often lose on the maps that have no Slag Deposits, because I can never seem to make my production equal the AI's production. I spent the evening thinking about ThermoGenerators and Slag Deposits.Īt the HARD (and HARDER) settings, I often build numerous slag deposits in an attempt to equalize my production with the AI production.
