Engine comment - wouldn't it be great if the AI worked in the background?

I'm assuming someone's brought this up before and it's technically difficult, but it would make the game _much_ nicer if the AI 'thought' while you were thinking. The experience would be much snappier.
Can we pay for a DLC for this? :P

i dont really see the point, the AI is much faster than me at deciding what to do.....it takes about 10-20 seconds to process a turn for me in BOR
however thinking about it, anything that would speed up PON is welcome

It requires some major changes in the engine...it's planned, but will take time

PON of course..the PON "engine" is different in a lot of ways to the other titles...

That would be wonderful if that happened for PON!
I love PrON, but it definitely needs such time-efficient adjustments.

Stardock's Gal Civ 2 had AI working while you played your turn. No matter how massive the game had gotten the turn was resolved almost instantly.

I think it would still be nice for AJE. I'm impatient...
