She is not kicked out of FD.
she has been moved from working on AI to something else... and that the issue as she hinted at there being no more combat AI...

I don't believe they do, it's an internal matter
No, it's bizarre. I hadn't seen her post from this morning but after reading it I am even more gutted that Frontier have screwed us on that update.
'okay, so there's a currently bug making all ships act like Harmless, but that's sorted on my build' - to quote that redacted post. If true (and there's no reason to think SJA would lie) it's a damned disgrace that Frontier have pulled the update, never mind where SJA is assigned.
And guy like Pecisk are still white knighting FD saying that it's perfectly reasonable for them to delete her posts because the update is delayed. Yes it's a bit 'tin foil hat' but hard not to be very cynical after reading that. The AI is screwed, and rather than fixing it they've pulled the dev and the update and redacted the information because Frontier have a serious issue with fronting up and being honest when they screw up.
Fish AI...Maybe she is on animal AI now. Those planets to land on need animals, you know...
Why would she be simulating FD management?
Amoeba AI...
That is speculation, fact is that we don't know and that she is not working on the AI anymore. So something got in the way as this was clearly not planned.
I am in such a bitter mood due to the lose of AI update... the one thing I have been wating for... but yeah at this point I expect there grass AI to be more advanced than the combat one...

This is one of those where I think we should be collecting signatures for FDEV to reconsider
If you (are allowed to) make a vote that has an option for "FDEV to reconsider
first include her last bits of AI code, then have her move as planned" I will add my vote (unless guilds or stations are attached to the said option ofc).I bought PB1 with the expansions, I have said a few times that I would not mind if the DLC was delayed IF it meant Devs could spend more time on content for all.
Leave it there for now
, I have 15 pages to catch up on.
Do rollercoasters have AI?
Have you looked at the stuff she posted on twitter? its very grim. she even says that her AI project was ''for nothing'' and ''wont be comming'' and most of what she mentioned at lavecon is know not going to happen soon... and that makes me sad as the AI has been left beyond brain dead only to focus on stupid nonsens like a combat arean , it makes sens for SC to have because they dont have a game yet , we however do... but for how long?
You know what I find more surprising than a personnel change? That FD has let us run wild for five hours (and counting) with all this crazy speculation! One would have thought a little damage control would be in order.
Unless, of course, they believe that we'll get over it (whatever "it" is) and all the forum drama in the world doesn't really hurt sales, which is probably quite true.

Well unless the new secret has AI enchancement I wont get over it... I am gutted I feel sad , I dont hate FD I love them but it just gives me the feeling they dont care
I agree with you, but we don't know if she just got moved or, as it seam "forced" away from the AI project. I'm sad too, No! actually I'm upset and would like to know why in the queens name this happened.
Best popcorn thread ever!
Something is strange, as she posted the night before at 8pm about how her AI was coming along. :S
She either broke DB`s Imperial mug or something fishy going on.
But fine Frontier go and urinate 2 months wages of a programmer up the wall. After all its only around £5-6k for nothing, if not more depending on expertise.
Wouldn't mind as well just as I had my gimp suit dry cleaned ready to be lashed by SJA`s AI.

Aww i just dosn't thought of that. That would be a real pain in the asp.
I have seen her Twitter posts and I have seen no evidence she has said anything of the sort. I am all for criticising FDEV where its due but lets not make stuff up.

I just hope we get some form of AI upgrade , even if someone else works on it... and of course that she likes her new post.
My take on it : is she not mad she been moved but that her worked has been left to gather virtual dust
(Of course it is speculation)

If I did these kinds of last minute moves on my devs, I'd be certain to see them all leave the office by 4:30PM b/c why would they even care if we don't care about their contribution.
I'm just as shocked that with the recent commitment to community involvement, Zac wasn't at the ready as soon as that meeting let out.
