How to have the AI play itself?

Hi all,

Is there a way to set AI control for all factions? IE no human player. This would greatly help in checking how balanced factions are... Plus it would be fun to see the way that the games evolve.

Mod to make the inca playable from the start, you won't interfere with whatever happens on the rest of the map.

Yes, you start a hotseat, for example select just england and start the game, then open the console and use this command: control england

The AI will play by itself now. You can press O to open the overview scroll from time to time to check what turn it is, you can toggle_fow to see the map, then you type use the same command: < control faction > to change any faction between human and AI control.

You need to turn off the Disable Console, Admin Password and Use Passwords settings when starting the hotseat.
