AI
There have been some improvements to the standard AI's behavior:
* Defense
- + The AI should more correctly account for travel time when
- assessing danger to cities from enemy units; previously it
- treated them as its own, which could be wrong for ZoC,
- restrictinfra etc. GNAPATCH#3729
+ Autosettlers are smarter about spotting danger: GNAPATCH#3854
o Sea and air units are now considered threats, not just
land units.
o Military units which can't attack are no longer
considered threats.
+ + Cities needing defense are less prone to building walls before
+ units. GNAPATCH#4798
+ The AI now considers non-land units that can conquer cities
(such as Helicopters) a threat to continents it controls.
