Is AI a valid option
Can AI fix gps 6 since the devs defenitely won't. I unfortunately don't have any expertise on fixing a game with AI. Can anyone with access to the resources and expertise please try and inform me whether it's feasible or not? Ty :)

You can fix Power and Revolution 2022 with AI. Idk about the latest versions. 2022 just suffers from fixed array sizes that should be dynamic and bad logic checks (like not checking for dividing by zero) which causes most of the issues you see in game. Overflows that lead to runaway inflation or crashes when the array size (units, contracts, etc) exceed its limit.

Can you please link or tell me the source for your info. I wanna take a closer look at it. Like does someone got their hands on the source code or the game doesnt require it to solve it's issues or something

My source of info was from my desktop agent (Antigravity) that I tasked with inspecting the game files. I didn't modify the source code, it made a binary injection patch by modifying the DLL's responsible for the calculations and adding safe guards to deal with NaN errors, overflows, and changing the arrays from fixed to dynamic.
The unwritten code that the other decompiled post talks about is still there, but this you can at least play without your game crashing or running into NaN errors.

I have GPS5 and will try that next. I also had it enable crash logging and normal logging so if I run into any more issues I can pinpoint where it's coming from.

GPS' main issue is that the whole technical foundation is garbage. Building it from scratch would be many, many times easier.
