						If you have no AIs and an AI is started the so-called 'dummy' AI will

			||||||
 | 
						for this problem: you must change the settings so no AI is started,
 | 
				
			||||||
 | 
						this is done in the difficulty settings window. The other solution is
 | 
				
			||||||
 | 
						acquiring (downloading) some AI. The easiest way to do this is via

			||||||
 | 
						the "Check Online Content" button in the main (intro) menu or via
 | 
				
			||||||
 | 
						"AI Settings" -> "Select AI" -> "Check Online Content" which is also

 | 
						accessed via the main menu.
