I am a little bit confused, sorry:
In the manual, page 14, one can read:
"These settings will override the individual settings for each opponent’s Intelligence."
By "these settings", the manual means the difficulty setting at the bottom of the screen.
Now I wanted to play against 5 AIs. Three I set to "normal" intelligence, one to "bright", and one to "intelligent".
I noticed that when I set the first to "bright", the global AI setting below ("difficulty setting") went from "normal" to "challenging". When I then set a final AI to "intelligent", the difficulty setting went from challenging to "tough".
This confuses me, because of the clause in the manual from page 14 I quoted above. It seems because of that clause that when I set one AI to "intelligent", the difficulty goes up two notches, and this must "override individual settings for each opponent’s Intelligence."
But if that is the case, then why select individual Intelligence anyhow -- because if by doing so and deviating just once on any individual's setting, I thereby raise the grade (by "overriding") for all others?
So my question is: How does this work EXACTLY?
thank you very much
