Nope, it doesn't exist yet, though Tim plans on making one. In case you
don't know, VGAP4 has it's own newsgroup, alt.games.vgaplanets4.

Nope. Thats one of the reasons VGAP4 is still considered beta.
Ive been waiting for years on that.

Host 172 (actual is 173) shows this:

Fixed: Planets 4 AI file ( V4HOSTZ.DLL ) coming "alive" and turning on
attack switches, buying tech levels and setting tax rates

So i suppose there will be a small programm soon ... i'm pretty sure, same
dumb as original cplayer 😀

I'm not really the right person to reply to this but what I see on the v4
NG/ML's is that...

Some rapid bug reports were posted about essentially "blue on blue"
incidents in a new release of v4.
It was very quickly identified by Tim as an accidental activation of aspects
the new AI code in that release.
I gather that the momentary problem has been fixed? These things happen in
Beta test....

This has been both "rather annoying" to the current Beta testers who are
"involved" in their games but also more importantly rather encouraging for
the implicit activity one could infer for the future of v4 "stuff".

Again - I'm not "selling" anything here - I just do Free/GNU graphics for v4
people, but I watch a lot of NGs! 8)

I ain't clever an' I don't play - I just do "piccies"!

Cheers!
