First of all, thxs for making such an effort to upgrade the AI. We all appriciate it a lot, especially now that fighting against the computer could be a b-tch again.
Well, I have a problem that comp is mimicing my color schemes, so I end up fight the same guys if the match is an mirror, or actually the biggest problem is large battles. Yesterday, my and some friend were playing against the computer. Two chaos comp had the same colors as my allies. So we had three chaos looking the same. And it was a mayhem with like 5-7 squads and Commanders from each team in the same spot. I had hard to spot which units that were allies and which were foes.
I don't now if it is your mod that causes this or it is the new patch, but you guys seems to be more eager to fix game issues this so this is more of request from me.
The obvious solution to the problem would be to turn fo "random race" but that kind of spoils some of the fun.
Looking forward to the 1.9!

Errr... You mean mimicing on the MiniMap? AI cannot mimic your colours since you've already taken those colours already and thus the AIs need to have another. If you mean the Mini-Map there is a toggle on the UI there to change the colours as I recall.

Hmm.. I never noticed this.. I mean the AI teams will have the same colour scheme as your own if you play together as allies? AI enemies as well? Massive bug if thats true but don't quite believe it since the schemes are pre-selected before game start. Will check that when I get home.

relic changed some things in the randomizer code
the color scheme problems:
1. every computer gets the color scheme which is the first in the list (alphabetically - so no random selection here)
2. in multiplayer games computer players of the same race as the host will get his color scheme
if the host deactivated color schemes for the computers, he will see the right schemes on his screen (so to speak the ai players will get a randomly selected color scheme of the original provided schemes) but for computers of the same race as the host case (2) applies
here the thread at the relic forums:
