    Stellaris Dev Diary #170 - Performance and other technical issues

    Oggi si parla di perfomance, partendo dal bilanciamento tra nuove meccaniche, miglioramenti di performance e stabilità, soprattutto in termini di desincronizzazione in multiplayer.

    Il Delicato Bilanciamento

    Stellaris è un gioco complesso e molte parti sono collegate tra loro. Aggiungendo nuove meccaniche si aggiungono nuove connessioni. A volte se non ci sono abbastanza controlli l'aggiunta di nuove meccaniche è causa di Bug.
    Per ovviare al problema si possono aggiungere controlli. Ma anche essere troppo prudenti causa problemi, perché troppi controlli, magari non tutti utili, è causa di Rallentamento.
    Per velocizzare si riutilizzano valori, ma a volte macchine diverse danno risultati diversi, è questo è causa di Desincronizzazioni.
    Trovare la quadra non è facile.

    Performance
    Lottiamo sempre per migliorarle. La causa di maggiori rallentamenti è...
    [​IMG]

    Pops.

    A fine partita ce ne sono tanti. Tanti. Tantitantitantitanti. E fanno tanti calcoli: quanti sono bravi a fare lavori (ogni 7 giorni), ottenere il lavoro, controllare le proprie etiche, decidere se entrare in fazioni, decidere quanto sono felici, decidere se sarebbero più felici altrove.

    Ok, quindi cosa avere fatto?
    Ora la redistribuzione dei lavori è solo on-demand ad esempio.
    Abbiamo cambiato l'approccio alla decisione di POP di cambiare etiche e fazioni.
    Per finire abbiamo aumentato le occasioni per il multithreading.

    Il risultato? Un video vale più di mille parole:

    Il video compara le performance di 2.5.1 “Shelley” con 2.6 “Verne'' con un savegame della comunità con 20000 pops sul mio computer (Intel Core7-7900X @ 3.30Ghz, 10 cores and 20 threads, and AMD R9 Fury).
    In pratica abbiamo visto in media un miglioramento dal 15% al 30% a fine partita.

    [​IMG]

    Cosa intendi per media?
    Di notte lasciamo giocare partite come osservatori e al mattina vediamo come sono andate e otteniamo un sacco di dati.
    [​IMG]

    In conclusione
    Teniamo sempre conto delle prestazioni, ma stavolta abbiamo dato un'occhiata più approfondita.

    Stellaris Dev Diary #172 - Reworking the AI

    Oggi si parla di Intelligenza Artificiale
    [​IMG]


    Cinquanta sfumatore di IA
    Ci sono varie moduli che noi chiamiamo ministri:
    • Ministro IA degli Esteri gestisce diplomazia, federazioni, comunità galattica, accordi di pace
    • Ministro IA degli Interni gestisce l'economia, ordina le costruizioni, gestisce il budget
    • Ministro IA della guerra comanda truppe e flotte e scrive piani di guerra
    Quasi tutto è configurabile da script e quindi moddabile.

    L'IA militare
    Prima di tutto, ho aggiunto visualizzazioni per capire come l'IA "pensa" quando si scrive "debug_ai" nella console:
    [​IMG]
    I teschi indicano potenziali obiettivi in considerazione, a quelli con i teschi rossi sono state assegnate flotte, quelli verdi sono stati scartati per ora.
    Nello screenshot, l'IA ha deciso di attaccare Tiralam con punteggio 4500 e pensa che serva un flotta di potenza 11.2k. Per farlo manda 3 flotte ma prima le fa raggruppare insieme.

    Per convenienza, il riassunto è anche nell'outliner:
    [​IMG]

    IA Crisi
    Prima avevano IA specifiche ora anche le Crisi (Khan, Prethoryn, Unbidden, Contingency) utilizzano quelle generiche cosa da ottenere i vantaggi introdotti, con qualche personalizzazione per distinguerle:
    • il Khan non pensa a difendersi e attacca i vicini
    • i Prethoryn attaccano in tutte le direzioni
    • la Contingency attaccherà la maggior minaccia alla galassia fino a eliminarle tutte
    • gli Unbidden sono difficili da predire, ma hanno uno scopo preciso anche loro
    Assegnando un potere della flotta minimo a ogni obiettivo, abbiamo potuto ciclare tra le flotte per assegnarle.
    Per farlo funzionare con le Crisi, abbiamo dovuto insegnare l'IA a dividere le flotte, cosa non facile:
    [​IMG]

    Dopo molti tentativi anche complessi, abbiamo deciso di sommare tutte le flotte e poi dividerle in 2, 3 o più in base a quanto si sente sicura l'IA.

    Per i modder ecco nuove define da usare:
    # Objective values
    HORDE_INVASION_PLANNING_DEPTH = 5 # How far out does the Horde AI looks for invasion targets (in system hops)
    SWARM_INVASION_PLANNING_DEPTH = 5 # How far out does the Swarm AI looks for invasion targets (in system hops)
    SWARM_POP_TARGET_MULT = 1.0 # Extra target scoring for swarm (multiplied by number of edible pop on the planet)
    CONTINGENCY_MEGASTRUCTURE_EXTRA_VALUE = 4 # How attractive are megastructures to the Contingency (added to the base value of 1)
    UNBIDDEN_PORTAL_EXTRA_VALUE = 20 # How much does the Unbidden want to defend their portal (compared to base value of 1)
    UNBIDDEN_BYPASSES_EXTRA_VALUE = 4 # How attractive are bypasses to the Unbidden (added to the base value of 1)
    UNBIDDEN_RIVALS_EXTRA_VALUE = 10 # Extra target scoring for rival invaders (Aberrant and Vehement)
    UNBIDDEN_TARGET_EXTRA_VALUE = 10 # Extra target scoring for randomly chosen nemesis
    UNBIDDEN_PSIONIC_CONQUER_DESIRE = 20 # Extra weight added to psionic empires when rolling a nemesis (base 1 + number of owned bypasses)
    UNBIDDEN_CHOSEN_ONE_CONQUER_DESIRE = 50 # Extra weight added to empire lead by the chosen one when rolling a nemesis (base 1 + number of owned bypasses)

    # Fleet sizing
    OFFENSE_VS_DEFENSE_STRATEGY_ALLOTMENT = 0.75 # How much of its fleet power should a country with 1.0 aggressiveness should try to commit to offensive missions
    AVERAGE_FLEET_SIZE_FACTOR = 0.05 # Ballpark estimate of the minimum size a fleet should be in relation to total fleet power
    OWN_FLEET_POWER_FACTOR = 1.0 # How much does AI count its own fleet power when evaluating forces
    ALLY_FLEET_POWER_FACTOR = 0.5 # How much does AI count ally fleet power when evaluating forces
    ENEMY_FLEET_POWER_FACTOR = 1.0 # How much does AI count enemy fleet power when evaluating forces
    FLEET_SUPERIORITY_FACTOR = 1.5 # How stronger should the AI be before it starts considering splitting fleets (fleet count = relative strength / this factor)
    CRISIS_FLEET_SUPERIORITY_FACTOR = 1.0 # Same as previous but will be compared to the strongest foe in the universe

    Molte modifiche sono nella 2.6, ma l'IA Militare necessita di più test e quindi arriverà nella prima patch di supporto (2.6.1).

    IA Economica
    [​IMG]

    Questa AI decide come spendere risorse e come acquisirne altre. In particolare gestisce le costruzioni, ma finora lo faceva pianeta-per-pianeta e senza obiettivi finali.

    I Problemi
    Richiede molti script, da mantenere e bilanciare. Cambiare un edificio richiede di cambiare molti script. É un sistema enorme e complesso. Esempio:
    ai_weight = {
    weight = 0
    modifier = {
    weight = 10
    OR = {
    planet_crime < 15
    has_building = building_hall_judgment
    }
    is_capital = no
    free_amenities > 2
    owner = {
    has_monthly_income = {
    resource = minerals
    value > 100
    }
    has_monthly_income = {
    resource = alloys
    value < 100
    }
    has_monthly_income = {
    resource = alloys
    value > 6
    }#Check for alloy shutdown
    }
    }
    modifier = {
    weight = 200
    planet = {
    is_capital = yes
    NOR = {
    has_building = building_foundry_2
    has_building = building_foundry_3
    }
    num_buildings = { type = building_foundry_1 value < 3 }
    has_building_construction = no
    }
    }
    modifier = {
    weight = 400
    OR = {
    AND = {
    owner = {
    OR = {
    has_monthly_income = {
    resource = consumer_goods
    value > 0
    }
    country_uses_consumer_goods = no
    }
    }
    NOR = {
    num_buildings = { type = building_foundry_1 value > 1 }
    has_building = building_foundry_2
    has_building = building_foundry_3
    }
    owner = {
    has_ai_personality_behaviour = conqueror
    OR = {
    has_ai_personality_behaviour = opportunist
    has_ai_personality_behaviour = purger
    has_ai_personality_behaviour = propagator
    }
    }#Agressive empires but not robot liberators as they tend to be erudite explorers and the like.
    }#Give agressive empires 2 alloy factories on planets early on.
    NOR = {
    has_building = building_foundry_1
    has_building = building_foundry_2
    has_building = building_foundry_3
    }
    }
    }
    modifier = {
    factor = 0.5
    free_jobs > 3
    }
    modifier = {
    weight = 500
    has_building = building_foundry_1
    free_building_slots = 0
    }#Repairs
    }

    Un'altra problema è che così l'IA è reattiva ma non proattiva.
    E ovviamente farlo pianeta-per-pianeta vuol dire non tener conto della situazione globale.
    Ci sono tanti altri problemi, ma questi sono quelli principali che voglio affrontare:
    • script meno complessi e difficili da mantenere
    • maggior pianificazione proattiva dell'IA
    • non più costruzioni pianeta-per-pianeta
    • mgiliori performance economiche
    La Soluzion ovvero Il Piano™
    La QA ha raccolto metriche che secondo loro l'IA dovrebbe raggiungere in un determinato lasso di tempo. Stavo già pensando che l'IA dovesse pensare a lungo termina e così nacque il Piano Economico IA, da cui l'Ia deriva quello che le manca e come ottenerlo nel lungo periodo. I Piani sono script che impongono obiettivi all'IA, a partita iniziale, metà partita o fine partita. Ci sono anche trigger e pesi per scegliere il Piano da implementare (i Piani sono cambiati solo quando implementati totalmente o non puù validi).

    Questo:
    focus = {
    energy = 10
    minerals = 30
    alloys = 50
    food = 10
    consumer_goods = 20
    }

    pops = 500
    empire_size = 1.25

    potential = {
    country_uses_consumer_goods = yes
    country_uses_food = yes
    }

    ai_weight = {
    weight = 1
    }
    }
    è il Piano Economico di base per imperi normali.
    Ecco una spiegazione dei campi, per chi è interessato:
    ‘type = early’
    The type field determines during which part of the game this plan is considered valid, this particular one is valid for the early game so it will only be considered until you reach whatever year has been set as the mid-game start year in the game settings.

    ‘income = {}’
    The income field contains the main economic plan goals that the AI will try to reach when having this plan. Here you can script any available strategic resource followed by how much net income the AI needs to have before it considers that resource goal fulfilled. NOTE: If a resource is not scripted here then that means that the AI will not actively try to build anything that produces that resource, it might do that because a certain building produces something else it needs though.

    ‘focus = {}’
    The focus field can be used to set special focus goals ( net income ) for resources that the AI should specifically try to reach before anything else. This field is great to use to ensure that the AI never dips below a certain net income, and that it makes sure to produce certain resources early on even if there is no deficit of said resource. Minerals and alloys are good example of early game focus resources because the AI needs to produce a considerable amount of them to be competitive, just staying above 0 net income is not enough!

    ‘pops = 500’
    The pops field is the goal number of pops that the AI will try to reach. It will not stop producing pops when this number is reached, however pop growth and assembly buildings will be weighted much lower in favor of more resource production when the goal has been reached.

    ‘empire_size = 1.25’
    The empire_size field denotes, in percentage, a threshold under which the AI should try to keep its Empire Sprawl. In this case 1.25 means that the AI should try to keep its early game Empire Sprawl under 125% of capacity, so that it does not incur too many penalties but still can tolerate some.

    ‘potential = {}’
    The potential field is a standard trigger field, scoped to the AI country, where you can script which type of countries are allowed to use this plan. The base plan potentials are just to ensure that different empire types produce only the resources they need, but you could also script things like special economic plans for when you are at war or if you are in a federation etc.

    ‘ai_weight = {}’
    The ai_weight field is a standard weighting field that you can use to script how much the AI wants to use a certain plan. Since there is only one possible plan per country type and era right now all weights are just set to 1, but you could script up lots of different plans and weigh them differently for different empires based on for example personality, ethics or any other AI property.

    Eseguire Il Piano™
    Quindi come fa l'IA a implementarli? A intervalli regolari controllerà la propria situazione economia e deciderà cosa fare, creando una lista di costruzioni o distretti da creare su vari pianeti.
    [​IMG]

    Sarà l'IA a decidere quale costruzione è la più adatta a raggiungere lo scopo.
    L'IA assegna priorità in base a vari parametri (N.d.AC: qua si dilunga, leggete il DD originale per maggiori dettagli).
    Questi sono i modificatori assegnati ai parametri:
    AI_DEFICIT_SCORE_MULT = 50 # AI will score buildings producing resources in deficit this much more
    AI_FOCUS_SCORE_MULT = 10 # AI will score buildings producing focus resources this much more
    AI_AMENITIES_SCORE_MULT = 2 # AI will score amenity buildings this much more than other misc resources
    AI_HOUSING_SCORE_MULT = 5 # AI will score housing buildings this much more than other misc resources
    AI_CRIME_REDUCTION_SCORE_MULT = 2 # AI will score crime fighting buildings this much more than other misc resource
    AI_ADMIN_CAP_SCORE_MULT = 2 # AI will score admin cap buildings this much more than other misc resource
    AI_POPS_SCORE_MULT = 5 # AI will score pop growth and assembly buildings this much more ( already fairly high weighted in code )
    AI_UPGRADE_SCORE_MULT = 40 # AI will score building upgrades this much more ( since they don't take up a new building slot )
    [​IMG]
    N.d.AC: qui c'è un esempio che non traduco, leggete il DD originale per maggiori dettagli

    Valutare Il Piano™
    Ma funziona e risolve i problemi elencati all'inizio? Sì! :D
    Nei nostri test abbiamo visto economie AI più robuste.
    Per i Modder, se rimuovete tutti i piani l'IA continuerà a usare i vecchi script se preferite quel sistema.

    Il DLC Federations, la quarta Espansione di Stellaris, e la patch 2.6.0 'Verne' sono stati rilasciati il 17 marzo.



    Ecco le patch notes:
    #################################################################
    ######################### VERSION 2.6.0 ###########################
    #################################################################

    ###################
    # Federations Expansion Features
    ###################

    # Federations Rework

    * Form new types of Federations, each with unique passive effects, and level them up to unlock perks. Customize them further through the new Federation Laws.

    # Galactic Community

    * Join the Galactic Community and pass resolutions by voting with the rest of the Community to make the galaxy a better place for everyone. Or slowly build up your diplomatic weight, and becomethe senate!

    # Origins

    * A new way to customize your Empires, by choosing their Origin story. Is your Empire a race of people who survived the destruction of their homeworld who now live on Habitats? Or did your Empire discover nearby allies that it formed a Federation with? Or...?

    # Juggernaut

    * Bigger is better! The Juggernaut is a new ship class as large as a starbase that can build and repair ships in the field, turning your offensive fleet into an unstoppable force!

    # Mega Shipyard

    * A new Megastructure with a name so fitting you wonder how we even thought of it. The Mega Shipyard will allow you to build ships quicker and in more numbers than ever before, having up to 30 shipyards and passively increase your empires Ship build speed, while also starting ships off with some XP.

    # Achievements

    * Show off your soft power with 10 new Steam achievements.

    ######################
    # 2.6.0 "Verne" Free Features
    ######################

    # Diplomacy Polish

    * Envoys have been added to the game. A Mini-leader that you don't need to hire, but you have a limited amount of. Meant to be used to improve or harm relationships with other Empires, to increase your Federations Cohesion, or to increase your Diplomatic Weight in the Galactic Community.
    * Envoys are displayed in the top bar with informative tooltips.
    * Countries now have a Diplomatic Stance. These can be found under Policies and set your empire's general disposition towards other empires. Isolationist? Belligerent? Cooperative? Each comes with its own sets of benefits and drawbacks.
    * If a country that has subjects leaves or is removed from a federation, its subjects are also removed.
    * Diplomacy action view and response view now have background colors depending on if the action is aggressive, positive, negative or neutral.
    * The "attitude" displayed in the diplomacy window will now say that it is a human empire if it is.
    * The Diplomatic Grants edict now increases Diplomacy Weight and improves Envoy effectiveness instead of Trust Growth and Trade Attractiveness.
    * Diplo info pop-up now has an icon indicating the action.
    * An icon (currently set to the closest relevant diplomacy status) is now shown in the diplomacy action view as well as the response view.
    * The alien message flavor text in the diplomacy view now animates and fades in, and then animates and fades out after five seconds (tweakable in defines).
    * Progress bar for opinion levels in diplo view now has different colors per level.

    # Other Stuff

    * Updated the War in Heaven scripts. The leader of the strongest federation will now be given the option to turn their federation into the League of Non-Aligned Powers (if all federation leaders say no, other countries can still form a new federation)
    * The "Eat the Titans" planet modifier (for planets with titanic life forms) now gives Titan Hunter jobs.
    * The Commonwealth of Man now always spawns somewhere if playing UNE.
    * Strike Crafts now have an engagement_range, making a pure hangar based design viable. Modifier: ship_engagement_range_mult
    * Added a generic way to block archetypes in create_species effect.
    * Added a Lithoid prescripted empire for the Lithoids Species pack.
    * Fleet reinforcement is now handled as an MIA event: When a ship is built to reinforce a fleet that is not in their system, they will go MIA for as long as it would have taken them to get to the fleet. In order to reinforce, a path with no hostiles (including pirates and space wildlife) blocking the way to the fleet must exist.
    * A notification will now appear when a Terravore's Consume World decision completes, listing the benefit they received from wrecking the place and making it easier to reselect the planet.
    * When terraforming a planet to a Machine World, any non-cyborg Biological pops will be killed off and an Organic Slurry deposit will be added. Determined Exterminators will gain 100 unity per pop killed this way.
    * Colossus Assembly Yard is now called Colossal Assembly Yard, and is now also unlocked by the Juggernaut tech.
    * Added cooldown to leaders (currently only used by envoys) that need to tick down before they can be moved. Also added leader modifiers for improving and harming relations.
    * Added Docile and Unruly traits, which affect empire sprawl from pops.
    * Added Streamlined Protocols and High Bandwidth robot traits, which affect how much empire sprawl the robot pops cause.
    * Added Maintenance Protocols civic for machine empires, which makes maintenance drones produce 1 unity.
    * Added Instinctive Synchronization Synchronicity tradition that increases admin cap from synapse drone by +2.
    * Added Bureaucrat governor trait that increases admin cap from bureaucrat jobs by +10%.
    * Added a new free archaeological site, and a new one for Ancient Relics.
    * Added a colony event chain about dancing.
    * Made debugtooltips show information on flags, modifiers and variables when hovering over a country icon.
    * Now possible to use ethos list as preferred when randomizing ethics by setting randomize_ethos = yes

    * Hive Warren buildings no longer provide maintenance jobs, but instead provide housing and amenities
    * Countries with high income from trade value will now be somewhat more likely to be picked as the host of the Galactic Market, whereas Gestalts are less likely to be chosen.
    * The One Mind hive mind civic now also makes your leaders less likely to gain negative traits.
    * Removed civic restrictions from Byzantine Bureaucracy. Philosopher King now also makes your Rulers and Governors less likely to gain negative traits.
    * Fallen Empires will now use up to 8 armies' worth of occupation armies, up from 0.
    * Khanate Diadochi now always get claims on all systems belonging to their rival Diadochi.
    * More Pops from the Great Khan's Horde are now generated when they conquer a planet.
    * The Khanate Successor States now get Alloys and Consumer Goods when they are created.
    * Genetic Resequencing now permits Lithoids to gain the Adaptive and Rapid Breeders species traits.

    * Prosperity Tradition Change: The Prosperity finisher will now grant +1 Maintenance Drone per 20 pops for Machine Empires.
    * Domination Tradition Change: Modular Depots (Machine) now decreases Empire Sprawl from Districts by 25%.
    * The reward for destroying pirates now scales somewhat as the game progresses, and destroying the Privateer Conglomerate will grant you a reward proportional to the task.
    * Resource Processing Centers now provide two Alloy Drones or one Fabricator instead of a Synapse Drone or Coordinator.
    * The second housing tech will now give gestalts extra maintenance drones per city section.
    * Increased Gestalt empires' maintenance drones from arcology habitation districts from 2 to 9, to scale for the larger population they can support.

    * The UNE is now more powerful when it is spawned by playing as the Commonwealth.
    * The Byzantine Bureaucracy civic's effect is now: Bureaucrats now produce +1 Unity and +1 Stability. Fill out these forms in triplicate and have them properly stamped and filed, everything will be fine, citizen.
    * Empire Sprawl Changes: Colonies are worth 5 Empire Sprawl instead of 2. Each Pop produces 0.5 Empire Sprawl. Sector Governors reduce Pop Contribution to Empire Sprawl by 2% per level.

    * Some changes have been made to strike craft to make hangar sections more valuable. Strike craft now move significantly faster, reinforce losses faster, and have increased tracking and evasion. They will now engage from a larger distance, and will act as a point defense screen against missiles, other strike craft, and act as a counter against swarms of light ships such as corvettes. A "Carrier" combat computer has been added that will attempt to stay at extreme range during combat.
    * Reduced research cost of the "Hallucinogen Removal" project.
    * Gaia worlds can no longer get the "High Gravity" or "Hazardous Weather" modifiers.
    * Added the "Indentured Servitude" slavery type, which allows slaves to be employed in Specialist jobs, but leaves them with most of their political power. This requires the expanded slavery types from the Utopia DLC.

    Purtroppo ci sono ancora dei problemi: https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/index.php?threads/read-me-dissapearing-juggernaut.1359121/
    Quindi a breve sarà prevista anche una patch 2.6.2.

    Io onestamente pur nella situazione attuale non ho ancora trovato il tempo, ma se mi confermi che è una buona patch allora mi toccherà fare una nuova partita!

    Grazie, sono lieto di sapere che i miei sforzi sono apprezzati.

    Volevo scrive che mi trovo bene, ma per un lapsus ho scritto tempo, vabbè s'è capito :oops:

    Eccerto! Semplicemente spesso mi limito a leggere invece che rispondere.

    Il problema dello Joggurnaut appare solo a coloro che utilizzano il modello creato in automatico e lo aggiornano. Io per fortuna creo tutto da 0 per abitudine.

    Stellaris Dev Diary #174 - Federations is out, now what?
    L'Espansione Federations è stata rilasciata da una settimana e speriamo vi stia piacendo.

    La Comunità ha infranto molti record! Abbiamo avuto 64 mila giocatori Sabato 21/03, che è il numero più elevato dal rilascio di 4 anni fa. Speriamo che tutti voi l'abbiate apprezzato!

    Mentre voi giocate noi stiamo pianificando aggiornamenti e lavorando su patch. Al momento stiamo lavorando alla 2.6.3 che potrebbe diventare una beta pubblica a breve. Dovrebbe essere l'ultima di piccole patch perché poi vorremmo focalizzarci su qualcosa di più grosso per Maggio.

    La patch di Maggio (TBA) conterrà Bug Fixes ma anche qualcosa di nuovo. Siamo molto interessati nel conoscere il vostro feedback e le vostre idee su Federations, e in particolar modo vorremmo sapere cosa ne pensate di Risoluzioni e Leggi della Federazione. Non possiamo promettere niente, ma potremmo implementare alcune delle richieste della Comunità.

    Proteggeremo i Tiyanki o li cacceremo per ottenere un profitto?
    Parleremo meglio della patch di Maggio in futuri DD, per ora continuate a giocare!
