New improvement coming to the next update:
On the New Game Settings menu, a new option has been added for setting the aggressiveness of AI pricing strategy.
It determines how far the AI companies will go in lowering prices of their products in order to grab market share from competitors. When this is set to low, you can expect most products to enjoy healthy profit margins and companies will be in general more profitable.
The original Competitor Aggressiveness option has been renamed as “AI Expansion Aggressiveness”, which determines how aggressive AI companies are in pursuing business expansions.

This is great. I find sometimes they are too aggressive with setting prices at levels where their margins are deeply negative. Nice to have the option to play around with it. Which option is closest to the game's status quo default?

Looks interesting, does this work with the scripting system?
