I see there are comments here, but there are many unclear things anyway.
For example, StructureSeconds parameter which says that AI will try to build a new building each N seconds. But building process is controlled by scripts. What is StructureSeconds needed for?
The same is for Wealthy and Poor parameters. It is clear that AI will consider itself as wealthy or poor, but what for? How does it effect the game? And so on. StructuresWealthyRate, StructuresPoorRate, TeamsWealthyRate and TeamsPoorRate are seem to be totaly useless.
AttackUsesLineOfSight - what for? Units can have the setting "ATTACK_NEEDS_LINE_OF_SIGHT" in KindOf string.
ForceSkirmishAI - What for? What is solo ai?
InfantryPathfindDiameter - What's the meaning of this? What is those "pathfind cells"?
MaxRecruitRadius - Wherer is it used? What is recruiting? Are teams building and recruiting the same?
MinInfantryForGroup, MinVehiclesForGroup - what for? Groups are determined in ScirmishScripts.scb. There can be even 1 solder or 1 vehicle in group.
SupplyCenterSafeRadius - What does it effect? Why AI should consider its Supply Center as safe?
MaxRetaliationDistance, RetaliationFriendsRadius - Where is it used? What does it effect?
ForceIdleMSEC, GuardEnemyScanRate and GuardEnemyReturnScanRate - what is the difference between these parameters? In which cases will units use 1000 msec delay in which - 500 msec delay and in which - 67 msec delay?
AttackIgnoreInsignificantBuildings - how AI determines if a building is significant or insignificant?
