[2021] Bandits

For a long time they didn't have a good AI developer on the team- So they largely left it on the back end. With Faatal on the team, he's been doing some sweeping changes to the main AI; Once the main AI is in a great place, he'll be able to fork it to create additional things like bandits or friendlies.

Forking prior to the main AI being in a great place essentially just doubles your workload, because you have to fix things in two places not one; And worse, because it's growing in two different ways, the things that need fixing and the way they get fixed wouldn't be identical.

So far as I know, it's still planned- Just pending current things being completed first.

They should attack you more based on how much Ren you've got and how many settlers. As those go up, bandits will target you more. You can also increase the threat rating difficulty from the settings menu.
