Yeah exactly the point is not or should not be to get an AI to >= 700 ladder rating.. It should be simple to select, not too much options. Maybe 4 difficulty levels without further options, fixed map pool that is known to work with those AIs somwhat ok, done.

And if you get people to learn to ACU-tank-spam-bum-rush the AI you have already prepared them better for PvP than they were before. Is it going to be boring fast: Yes. But thats where you switch to ladder or TMM if you want the challenge.

Now about ranking them into the 4 difficulty levels: I think this has been suggested before, but the most logical way would be to just let them play in ladder for a time. The question is how to do that automatically.

I like the idea of being able to have the AI's rating move up and down with it's win / loss ratio against players also.
The AI's are constantly getting better and just like a person its rating should reflect that.
Would be nice if AI's would be occasionally tested against more experienced players (no grey ratings) and
their ratings were adjusted just like the players.
There would have to be a way to "create a user name type account" for each and have designated modders play their AI's against volunteers periodically to get close to it's true rating/difficulty.

No they aren't.

Hello, I have tried to search RNG and micro ais in the mods tab in faf to no avail. May I asked where I might be able to find these mods?

At top of FAF screen where you see:
News, chat, play, maps, mods, leaderborads, etc....
Click on "Mods"
then in top left Open field box where it says "name"
type "RNG" and hit enter...
You will then see the RNGAI mod.
click the download icon in the top right,

same for the MicroAI:
type micro in name field and enter and you will see the
MicroAI mod.

you also need to enable them once you start a lobby go into "option"->"mods"-> then find them in the list and click on them to enable. after you do that you'll have them in the dropdown.
