Capitalism 2 and Capitalism Lab Forum

I wish to see a script in the game, that give you ability to create a competitor for your Custom game. I don't mean to create it completely, but reasonably close enough. You should be able to use your competitors in your games, depending of whatever you wanna see them in action or just to challange yourself in playing against them. So, you open the script, get to the "new competitor" and choose several things to discribe the way it acts in the game. Like whether it'll invest in given companies or try to dominate farming sector and so on.

I prefer to use real-life corporations and create their respective CapitalismLab simulated corporations, so i can play against them. Also - we all can share our scrips of corporations. Like if someone made a sweet realistic Toyota-like corporation or IBM-like corporation.

I will give you 2 examples:

MotoCorp

Starting capital: $25,000,000 and a small factory

ps: add some things you wanna see in the script options, i probably forget a lot of them.

I have proposed something similar: http://www.capitalismlab.com/forum/view ... =21&t=1274

I go even further in which you can define the behavior using a programming language.
It allows you to craft the AI and code what it should do in case of an event:
- when a new competitor occurs
- when a new mine is discovered
- when a factory is not making enough money for X months
- etc.
