249 * \li AIVehicle::SkipToVehicleOrder, use AIOrder::SkipToOrder instead
250 * \li AIWaypoint::WAYPOINT_INVALID, use AIBaseStation::STATION_INVALID instead
253 * \li The GetName / SetName / GetLocation functions were moved from AIStation
254 * and AIWaypoint to AIBaseStation, but you can still use AIStation.GetName
256 * \li The GetConstructionDate function was moved from AIStation to
257 * AIBaseStation, but can still be used as AIStation.GetConstructionDate
258 * \li WaypointID was replaced by StationID. All WaypointIDs from previous
259 * savegames are invalid. Use STATION_INVALID instead of WAYPOINT_INVALID
260 * \li AIWaypointList constructor now needs a WaypointType similar to AIStationList,
261 * it can also handle buoys.
262 * \li AIVehicleList_Station now also works for waypoints
263 * \li Stations can be build over rail without signals that is in the right
264 * direction for the to-be built station. It will also convert the rail if
265 * the station's rail type supports the old type.
266 * \li GetAPIVersion() was added as function to info.nut. If it does not exist
267 * API version 0.7 is assumed. This function should return the major and
268 * minor number of the stable version of the API the AI is written against.
269 * For 0.7.2 that would be 0.7, for 1.1.3 it would be 1.1, etc.
270 * \li The subsidy logic has changed. Subsidy is now awarded when cargo
271 * originating from subsidy source is delivered to station that has subsidy
272 * destination it its catchment area. One industry tile or one town house
273 * is enough as long as station accepts the cargo. Awarded subsidies are no
274 * longer bound to stations used for first delivery, any station can be
275 * used for loading and unloading as long as cargo is transfered from
276 * source to destination.
277 * \li Make AIEngine:CanRefitCargo() not report refittability to mail by
278 * default for aircraft. It is not necessarily true. This means that even
279 * if the aircraft can carry mail (as secondary cargo) it does not return
280 * true if the aircraft cannot carry it as its only cargo.
281 * \li Improve behaviour of AIEngine::GetCargoType(), AIEventEnginePreview::GetCargoType()
282 * and AIEngine::CanRefitCargo() for articulated vehicles. For
283 * CanRefitCargo true is returned if at least one part can be refitted.
284 * For GetCargoType the first most used cargo type is returned.
285 * \li AIIndustryType::GetConstructionCost() now returns -1 if the industry is
286 * neither buildable nor prospectable.
287 * \li AIEngine::IsValidEngine will now return true if you have at least one
288 * vehicle of that type in your company, regardless if it's still buildable
289 * or not. AIEngine::IsBuildable returns only true when you can actually
291 * \li AITile::GetCargoProduction will now return the number of producers,
292 * including houses instead the number of producing tiles. This means that
293 * also industries that do not have a tile within the radius, but where
294 * the search bounding box and the industry's bounding box intersect, are
295 * counted. Previously these industries (and their cargoes), although they
296 * produced cargo for a station at the given location, were not returned.
297 * \li AIRail::BuildRail will now fail completely if there is an obstacle
298 * between the begin and end, instead of building up to the obstacle and
299 * returning that everything went okay.
300 * \li Orders for buoys are now waypoint orders, i.e. instead of using the
301 * station orders for buoys one has to use waypoint orders.
302 * \li Autoreplaces can now also be set for the default group via AIGroup.
311 * \li AIAbstractList::SORT_ASCENDING
312 * \li AIAbstractList::SORT_DESCENDING
313 * \li AIAirport::IsAirportInformationAvailable
314 * \li AICompany::GetPresidentGender
315 * \li AICompany::SetPresidentGender
316 * \li AIEngine::GetDesignDate
317 * \li AIStation::GetConstructionDate
320 * \li AIs are now killed when they execute a DoCommand or Sleep at a time
321 * they are not allowed to do so.
322 * \li When the API requests a string as parameter you can give every squirrel
323 * type and it will be converted to a string
324 * \li AIs can create subclasses of API classes and use API constants as part
325 * of their own constants
330 * \li AIVehicle::GetReliability
333 * \li DoCommands and sleeps in call, acall, pcall and valuators are disallowed
338 * \li AIAirport::GetPrice
339 * \li AIController::GetVersion
340 * \li AIOrder::AIOF_DEPOT_FLAGS
341 * \li AIOrder::AIOF_STOP_IN_DEPOT
342 * \li AIOrder::IsCurrentOrderPartOfOrderList

344 * \li AIOrder::IsGotoStationOrder
345 * \li AIOrder::IsGotoWaypointOrder
347 * \li AITile::CORNER_[WSEN]
348 * \li AITile::ERR_AREA_ALREADY_FLAT
349 * \li AITile::ERR_EXCAVATION_WOULD_DAMAGE
350 * \li AITile::GetCornerHeight
351 * \li AITile::GetMaxHeight
352 * \li AITile::GetMinHeight
353 * \li AIVehicle::SendVehicleToDepotForServicing
356 * \li GetURL() was added as optional function to info.nut
357 * \li UseAsRandomAI() was added as optional function to info.nut
358 * \li A limit was introduced on the time the AI spends in the constructor and Load function
361 * \li First stable release with the NoAI framework.
