Like Bender, he can get freaky and nasty at maximum efficiency.Furbyz said:A mere human Gandhi's appetites could be sated by a trifling 5-7 concubines. This is Robogandhi we're talking about, whose lusts are as unquenchable as the star he throws the broken bodies of his feeble organic enemies into.Renegade-pizza said:No, he'll need...severalFurbyz said:Ghandi, you magnificent bastard! Get that man some roboconcubines. He'll need quite a few.
There is simply no limit.
Civ V, at the very least, has AI personality settings from 1-10 in various factors. Ghandi has a 12 in likelihood to use nukes, so the moment he researches nukes, he will work to build them, and he will use them when war starts.BigTuk said:It was a bug the patched out in the early civ games...I don't think it's actually been a thing since Civ 3.....
See it worked like this.. an integer in the code would store the nature of the leader and this would change over time. Positive becoming more peacful, negative becoming more warlike... There was a point though and as every programmer knows where a signed numerical variable when incremented or decremented beyond a point wil;l lopp around to the other end of the spectrum. Basically if you say used a char (value of 256 range of -127 to +128 when signed) If You added 1 to it when it was alread at +128 it would loop around to -127.
In so doing there could be a point where he would suddenly go from being Super Pacifist and PEaceful to BRING ME THE BLOOD OF THEIR CHILDREN! MY FOUNTAINS MUST RUN RED.
This isn't the first time an unintended number swap caused something like that. Megaman 2 had a famous example with MEtal Man. His actual vulnerability was supposed to be quick boomerang and he was supposed to be invulnerable to metal blades... but due to a loop around.. the multiplier for metal blades went from 0to 255.
Civ 4, and 5 had it as-wellBigTuk said:It was a bug the patched out in the early civ games...I don't think it's actually been a thing since Civ 3.....

Well it being a bug hasn't existed since then. The devs got such a giggle of Ghandi being such an asshole that he's intentionally coded that way now.BigTuk said:It was a bug the patched out in the early civ games...I don't think it's actually been a thing since Civ 3.....

nice Dethklok refGroverfield said:Wait no. I got it. Ghandi will need an ocean full of blood, an ocean so large it will be a planet. He will need a BLOOD OCEAN.
You've heard of "dirty nukes"? Maybe these were "filthy nukes".Lightspeaker said:To nitpick...the symbol you've used is a "Biohazard" warning not "Nuclear". I see both every day in work. >_>
