It will use get out of jail free cards or pay 50 dollars (if it can afford it) rather than rolling. It gets complicated when you attempt to put in a trade and mortgage system. It will mortgage the properties that have the least probability of being landed on (can be done through variable counter keeping track of how many times a property has been landed on). It will unmortgage when it has a monopoly and wants to build a house. It will attempt to buy a property off of the player for 50% over the actual value in the event it will give the AI a monopoly. It's all conditional ifs and variable statements. ----------------------------------- DarkHelmet Fri Apr 04, 2003 9:20 am ----------------------------------- I tried to write a monopoly program for my final project. The coding was too long, unpleasant to look at, and it would crash turing after you got around the board. I didn't give it computer players, and the trading didn't work properly. Despite all this, I got 95% on it. I couldn't believe it.
